So, tkinter don't work fine on my machine. What a pity! thanks, all, bye

I assume what you are actually looking for is the os.path module. http://docs.python.org/lib/module-os.path.html Especially the normpath() function should be of interest. Stefan

Or if you were really, really lucky you might try reading the documentation (http://docs.python.org/lib/os-file-dir.html): stat( path) Perform a stat() system call on the given path. The return value is an object whose attributes correspond to the members of the stat structure, namely: st_mode (protection bits), st_ino (inode number), st_dev (device), st_nlink (number of hard links), st_uid (user ID of owner), st_gid (group ID of owner), st_size (size of file, in bytes), st_atime (time of most recent access), st_mtime (time of most recent content modification), st_ctime (platform dependent; time of most recent metadata change on Unix, or the time of creation on Windows): >>> import os >>> statinfo = os.stat('somefile.txt') >>> statinfo (33188, 422511L, 769L, 1, 1032, 100, 926L, 1105022698,1105022732, 1105022732) >>> statinfo.st_size 926L >>> Changed in version 2.3: If stat_float_times returns true, the time values are floats, measuring seconds. Fractions of a second may be reported if the system supports that. On Mac OS, the times are always floats. See stat_float_times for further discussion. On some Unix systems (such as Linux), the following attributes may also be available: st_blocks (number of blocks allocated for file), st_blksize (filesystem blocksize), st_rdev (type of device if an inode device). st_flags (user defined flags for file). On other Unix systems (such as FreeBSD), the following attributes may be available (but may be only filled out if root tries to use them): st_gen (file generation number), st_birthtime (time of file creation). On Mac OS systems, the following attributes may also be available: st_rsize, st_creator, st_type. On RISCOS systems, the following attributes are also available: st_ftype (file type), st_attrs (attributes), st_obtype (object type). For backward compatibility, the return value of stat() is also accessible as a tuple of at least 10 integers giving the most important (and portable) members of the stat structure, in the order st_mode, st_ino, st_dev, st_nlink, st_uid, st_gid, st_size, st_atime, st_mtime, st_ctime. More items may be added at the end by some implementations. The standard module stat defines functions and constants that are useful for extracting information from a stat structure. (On Windows, some items are filled with dummy values.) Note: The exact meaning and resolution of the st_atime, st_mtime, and st_ctime members depends on the operating system and the file system. For example, on Windows systems using the FAT or FAT32 file systems, st_mtime has 2-second resolution, and st_atime has only 1-day resolution. See your operating system documentation for details. Availability: Macintosh, Unix, Windows. Changed in version 2.2: Added access to values as attributes of the returned object. Changed in version 2.5: Added st_gen, st_birthtime.

removing redundant elements in a dictionary
by Astan Chee Aug. 1, 2007

Aug. 1, 2007

Hi, I have a dictionary which looks something like this: elem = {"co":[1,2,3],"cp":[3,2,1],"pp":[5,6,7],"cl":[1,2,3],"qw":[6,7,8],"qa":[8,7,6]} what Im trying to do is find all keys in the list that have the same value and delete those (except one); thereby removing all redundant keys so that the above dict will look like this: elem = {"co":[1,2,3],"pp":[5,6,7],"qa":[8,7,6]} my code so far looks like this: for out1 in elem.keys(): for out2 in elem.keys(): if out1 != out2: elem[out1].sort() elem[out2].sort() if elem[out1] == elem[out2]: del elem[out1] This returns in a KeyError exception when sorting. What am I missing here? Thanks Astan
