One question in PythonSpeed PerformanceTips
by 三张 Nov. 21, 2017

Nov. 21, 2017

Hello, PerformanceTips is detailed and useful for python developer, where I have improved myself a lot. In the learning, I found a question in “Use xrange instead of range” section about the example code below: def xrange(start, stop=None, step=1): if stop is None: stop = start start = 0 else: stop = int(stop) start = int(start) step = int(step) while start < stop: yield start start += step The example code run type conversion only under the case that the stop variable is not None, so, if I run code ”xrange('5’)", the code can not work. I have no authorization to edit this page, and by the way, wiki.python.org is too hard to register. it will help more people who have interesting in python if you spend time to check the code and correct it. Best wish.

Hi, I have discovered couple of broken links on TkInter page (https://wiki.python.org/moin/TkInter) and wanted to update them. I just created my account (AndySalnikov) but apparently I cannot edit anything just yet. Could you add me to the editors please? Proposed changes to the TkInter page: - replace link http://www.astro.washington.edu/users/rowen/TkinterSummary.html with http://staff.washington.edu/rowen/TkinterSummary.html - replace link http://www.astro.washington.edu/users/rowen/ROTKFolklore.html with http://staff.washington.edu/rowen/ROTKFolklore.html Thanks, Andy

Permission to edit PythonBooks wiki page
by dibya Nov. 12, 2017

Nov. 12, 2017

Hi, My name is Dibya and I created and maintain https://pythonbooks.org/. It features a categorized and ranked list of Python books. The site is updated every month to include newly published books and reflect new rankings. You can see the discussion about the site on reddit <https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/6l7946/pythonbooks_find_the_best_p…>, another discussion on reddit <https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/6n9kbj/100_python_books_categorize…> and on HN <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14769317>. The Wiki page PythonBooks provided inspiration for making this site. I noticed that the lists featured in the wiki are ordered by publication date. I thought users might benefit from popularity based ranking as this helps to quickly find the best books. I implemented this in https://pythonbooks.org/. Also a lot of work was put in to categorize Python books on specializations (ML, GUI etc) and the website currently has 23 categories in total (still growing). I have received emails from Python users around the world who have benefited from the site's ranking and categorization. However, while the popularity of the website on reddit and HN has given it a strong start, I believe that there are still a lot of people who don't know about it. Since the PythonBooks wiki is the gateway for a lot of people for finding Python books, I thought that a link to the website on the PythonBooks wiki page might give the website the required exposure and help users who are looking to find popular Python books in different categories. Please take a look at the site. If you think that the website fulfills your standards, I would like to ask for permission to edit the PythonBooks wiki page such that I can add the link in the section "External sources of information". My username on the Python Wiki is DibyaChakravorty. I remain grateful and committed to the Python language and community. Thank you, Dibya

Would you be interested in adding maps of Python companies to the Python.org <http://python.org/> website? PythonLinks.info/europe#companies <http://pythonlinks.info/europe#companies> You can watch the introductory video at PythonLinks.info <http://pythonlinks.info/> It is all Javascript and JSON, so quite easy to syndicate content. If we added it to the Python.org <http://python.org/> website, very quickly everyone would add their companies. Warm Regards Christopher Lozinski https://PythonLinks.info tel: +48 12 361 3136 Skype: clozinski

https://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratingPythonWithOtherLanguages I would like to update the link to TclPython to point to: https://github.com/amykyta3/tclpython/ The old link points to the original author's page, but has not been updated in over 10 years. I have resurrected the project and will be maintaining it further. Tried contacting him, but the email listed is also invalid :-/ -Alex
