Ok, did you mean something like below?:<br><b><br>clr.AddReference("Mapack, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")<br><br>from Mapack import *</b> <b> #A library that contain classes for working with algebra etc.</b><br>
<br><b>context = {}<br><br>context['m'] = Matrix(5,5) #creating a 5 rows, 5 columns matrix object in context<br><br><br>def inputBox_KeyDown(s, e):<br> key = e.Key.value__<br> result = root.inputBox.Text<br> if key == 3: #If 'Enter' key is pressed<br>
try:<br> try:<br> root.message.Text = eval(result)<br> except SyntaxError:<br> exec result in context<br> except Exception, e:<br> print 'Unhandled exception', e<br>
root.inputBox.Text = "" #Clearing inputBox</b><br><br>But this creates a fixed size matrix and I still get an exception if I type for example <b>m=Matrix(2,2)</b> in the 'inputBox'. I want to make this as general as possible. Can't I place everything that is imported from 'Mapack' into the 'context' dictionary together with whatever the user types in besides of that? There are several more classes that must be placed in 'context'. It would be nice to have the user type <b>n=m.Transpose()</b> or whatever method he wants to get out from the 'Mapack' library and then let the code be executed correctly.<br>
