flow control and nested loops
In Perl, one can label loops for finer flow control. For example: X: for my $x (@X) { Y: for my $y (@Y) { for my $z (@Z) { next X if test1($x, $y, $z); next Y if test2($x, $y, $z); frobnicate($x, $y, $z); } glortz($x, $y); } splat($x); } What's considered "best... 26 Sep 2009 16:53

When is divmod(a,b)[0] == floor(a/b)-1 ?
The docs for divmod include the following: divmod(a, b) ...For floating point numbers the result is (q, a % b), where q is usually math.floor(a / b) but may be 1 less than that. ... I know that floating point math can sometimes produce "unexpected" results, so the above caveat is not entirely... 27 Sep 2009 03:41
