    ...Index (Cheese Shop): A. Kuchling will ask Thomas Wouters about increasing the memory on ximinez, and getting another machine for PyPI. M. von Löwis reported that Thomas Wouters spoke with XS4ALL, who assigned us a contact and made a proposal for a hardware upgrade which the Infrastructure Committee shall discuss. Eventually, the board will probably need to vote to approve the upgrade. Status: done. Originally from April 2007, Section 9, New PSF Members: D. Goodger will contact the PSF members ...

    ...indexes. String formatting (s % args) has a new formatting option, '%r', which acts like '%s' but inserts repr(arg) instead of str(arg). (Not yet in alpha 1.) Greg Ward's "distutils" package is included: this will make installing, building and distributing third party packages much simpler. There's now special syntax that you can use instead of the apply() function. f(*args, **kwds) is equivalent to apply(f, args, kwds). You can also use variations f(a1, a2, *args, **kwds) and you can...

    ...index].attr). However, if A is a mutable object, A may be modified in place. Thus, if A is a number or a string, A += B has the same effect as A = A+B (except A is only evaluated once); but if a is a list, A += B has the same effect as A.extend(B)! Classes and built-in object types can override the new operators in order to implement the in-place behavior; the not-in-place behavior is used automatically as a fallback when an object doesn't implement the in-place behavior. For class...

    ...index of the package. The import statement uses the following convention: if a package's __init__.py code defines a list named __all__, it is taken to be the list of module names that should be imported when from package import * is encountered. It is up to the package author to keep this list up-to-date when a new version of the package is released. Package authors may also decide not to support it, if they don't see a use for importing * from their package. For example, the file So...

Both programs are available at Metalab. Writing these programs left me progressively less satisfied with Perl. Larger project size seemed to magnify some of Perl's annoyances into serious, continuing problems. The syntax that had seemed merely eccentric at a hundred lines began to seem like a nigh-impenetrable hedge of thor...

This is much slower than necessary in the usual case, when the index is just an integer. In that case, only the single spelling needed is recomputed now; and, when the index is a slice object, only the spellings needed by the slice are recomputed now.

This was incorrect because set subclasses would be created without their __init__() method being called. The corrected behavior brings sets into line with lists and dicts.
