Hey everyone! I'm a math student working on a short script involving
logs. I have a function on my scientific calculator, and was wondering
if there was a similar funtion in python.
For example:
(log65536)/(log4)= 8
I've searched around a bit and haven't been able to find anything.
Thanks!

Hey thanks...
Still getting an error message though. Here's what i'm doing:
------
import math
log10(15625)
------
-It says that log10 is not defined, but it is since the module is
imported, right?

No, read the tutorial.
import math
math.log10(1562 5)

do either
import math
math.log10(1562 5)
from math import *
log10(15625)
from math import log10
log10(15625)

It's always a good idea, especially when answering a beginner's
question, to add the caution that this form ("from xxx import *") has
certain dangers** associated with it, and is widely considered poor
style, and should really only rarely be used. (The math module is
probably one of the few places where some people make an exception,
however, but it's still not a good habit to get into.)

To find out the names of function in the math module without checking the
docs, do dir(math) #same for any other module
To get more info, do
help(math) # same for any other module with a doc string

Which is why I often do things like import math as m m.log...

Better still, don't even *mention* it to a beginner.
They don't need to know about it. At all. Really.

Hi folks,
The python can only support passing value in function call (right?), I'm

It could achieved by pointer in C++, is there such way in Python?

Hi all,
I'm attempting to create a login/role system for an application i'm
building. My idea is to store an instance of a 'webapp' object in
global.asax. This object stores login (username, ID) and role
information (user, admin etc) which is set on a successful login.
Would it be ok to put this object in the global.asax file and initiate
it on Session_start?
I'm unsure of any potential security implications of doing this.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
