I also posted a question about this on the comp.lang.python newsgroup, on which I received two replies that provided information on what caused the problem and possible solutions. You can find the answers at...
I've done some Python programming, but I still consider myself a Python newbie. I have tried the following on Windows XP and a Mac Pro OS X 10.5.8 system on which I just installed Python 2.6.2.
I was working through Matt Wilson's article on using the logging module...
If you are reading a text file, then do NOT use FORM='unformatted' to read the file. That should only be used when reading a file written with FORM='unformatted'. This is due to the fact that the Fortran compiler expects to find record size information as part of a file when using...
If you are using Fortran 9x, then it does not matter whether you use quotes (") or apostrophes (') as long as you are consistent for each string. That is, I could use:
mystring = 'my stuff'
Or
mystring = "my stuff"
For some compilers the highest optimization level may be "unsafe". That is the compiler may:
* Make certain assumptions about your code, which may not be true.
* Use a "fast" math library, which may not give as accurate results.
* etc.
You should check with your particular compiler's...
If you are writing new code, then you could try F, which is a subset of Fortran 9x. It is available for download at the following location for a variety of platforms:
ftp://ftp.swcp.com/pub/walt/F/
If you want it on a CD-ROM, then you can purchase it for a nominal cost at...
Windows Developer Magazine has benchmarking article in their Fall 2003 issue (comparing C/C++/C#/D Languages performance). They mentioned a free Digital Mars compiler at http://www.digitalmars.com/
I've not looked at that compiler, so I don't know anything about it or whether it could be a...
FYI, the problem turned out to be a corrupted registry. Of course, by the time that I discovered that, any good backups by the system had been overwritten, and I was unable to restore the registry from any of them. (And of course, I did not have a backup.)
I happened to have a copy of...
Disk Manager
------------
There are no error indicators in Device Manager (i.e, no yellow/red marks) in any device. I don't see any CD/DVD device in Device manager. Indeed the only disk related devices are:
Disk Drives
Generic NEC Floppy Disk
Floppy Disk Controllers
Standard Floppy Disk...
Thanks for all the great suggestions.
It is not a virus -- at least Nortan AntiVirus cannot find anything with the latest update. Actually, that's the first thing that I tried. I'm sorry that I forgot to mention it.
The BIOS setting is correct.
I've tried removing the IDE controller and...
I used to have a CD-ROM section in System Properties/Device manager. It is missing now and I can find no references to anything related to a CD-ROM in Device Manager. I don't even see my hard drive in there any more. I checked on my husband's Windows 98 SE computer and everything is there on...
I am suddenly unable to see my CD-RW nd DVD drives under Microsoft Windows 98 SE. I did not install any new hardware or software. I;ve looked through all my hardware resources information and there are no conflicts.
I have a second harddrive, on which I have installed Linux -- it can see the...
There are ways of manipulating the registry from the command line. I don't remember the details, but one basically creates a text file that contains registry commands/information and feeds that to regedit, or some other tool that can change the registry. I suspect that any good book on the...
You need to "quote" the dollar sign in MAKE with another dollar sign, otherwise it thinks it starts one of its own variables.
That is:
--- Start of makefile
all:
pwd | awk 'BEGIN {FS="/"}{print NF} {print $$NF}'
--- End of makefile
I'm not sure how to add a tab...
