This scripts provides a function mkdir() more friendly than Python's standard os.mkdir(). Limitations: it doesn't take the optional 'mode' argument yet. ...
This script presents a way to introduce proper attribute access protection levels using a generic proxy object. By default all attributes are "protected" in the C sense and can be declared as public using either a function decorator or a class attribute. ...
This script is a tool to examine lack of docstrings in a module. It prints a rundown of the classes, functions, and methods in the given module that have not been given a docstring. ...
One common aspect of programming is calling executables and processing results. It is not as easy or elegant to do this in Python as it is in a shell scripting language, such as bash. This script implements a shell-like module in Python which allows you to easily call executables and work ...
This script provides a buffered stream that supports multiple forward-only readers. The buffer enables readers that are behind the front-runner to access values that have already been read from the stream. Values that are no longer accessible by any reader are cleared from the buffer. ...
This script helps you in adding new format specifiers to the logging module. In this example, it's for the user name and the name of the function that logged the message. ...
This script computes an infinite sequence of primes using simple generators. A Python dictionary is used to mark multiples of the generated primes, according to the Sieve of Eratosthenes. ...

This script implements a base class, which allows derived classes to track instances in self.__instances__. It uses a WeakValueDictionary to store instance references. ...
This script contains a simple, easy to use wrapper function for doing quick tests of your functions using the timeit module.The timeit module provides an easy way of testing the performance of your Python code by running it in many iterations and averaging the timings. However it is not very obvious how ...
