(Python) Colorizing Python Source Using the Built-in Tokenizer - magicrebirth

Tue, 19 Jul 2011 18:01:26 UTC

You need to convert Python source code into HTML markup, rendering comments, keywords, operators, and numeric and string literals in different colors. tokenize.generate_tokens does most of the work. We just need to loop over all tokens it finds, to output them with appropriate colorization:

[from the author's website] I wrote this to better understand the relationship between RGB colors. Running it will generate a fairly large HTML file with all sorts of color transitions on it so you can see what is happening as colors are tweaked in different ways.

(Python) dict.items vs dict.iteritems - magicrebirth

Mon, 17 May 2010 06:49:51 UTC

When is it appropriate to use dict.items() vs dict.iteritems? Also, when is it appropriate to use range() vs xrange(). From my understanding, xrange() essentially gives you an iterator across a range, so it should be used when iterating. Should you only use range() when want to physically store the range as a list?

(Python) 'Dictionary Comprehensions' - magicrebirth

Mon, 17 May 2010 06:34:30 UTC

Although Python doesn't have built-in dictionary comprehensions, you can do something pretty close with little mess or code. Just use .iteritems() to turn your dict into a list, throw it in a generator expression (or list comprehension), and then cast that list back into a dict. For example, say I have a dictionary of name:email pairs, and I want to create a dictionary of name:is_email_at_a_dot_com pairs:

(Python) Dicts to Lists / Lists to Dicts - magicrebirth

Mon, 17 May 2010 06:33:09 UTC

Turning a dictionary into a list or an iterator is easy. To get a list of keys, you can just cast the dict into a list. It's cleaner, though to call .keys() on the dictionary to get a list of the keys, or .iterkeys() to get an iterator. Similarly, you can call .values() or .itervalues() to get a list or iterator of dictionary values. Remember though, that dicts are inherently unordered and so these values won't be in any meaningful order. To preserve both keys and values, you can turn a dict into a list or iterator of 2-item tuples by using .items() or .iteritems(). This is something that you'll probably do a lot, and isn't very exciting:

Mon, 17 May 2010 06:30:32 UTC

Any keyword arguments you pass to the dict constructor are added to the newly created dictionary before returning. Of course, you are limited to the keys that can be made into keyword arguments: valid Python variable names.
