operators - What is the name of ** in python? - Programmers Stack Exchange - 0 views

  • It's not an operator as such, so it doesn't really have a name, but it is defined as a "syntactic rule". So it should be called: "the keyword argument unpacking syntax"
  • # usually a tuple, always an iterable*
  • # usually a dict, always a mapping*
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • kwargs
  • args =
  • *: Iterables are objects that implement the __iter__() method and mappings are objects that implement __iter__() and __getitem__()
  • If you are unsure what to call a particular operator or if it is unnamed, you can always resort to Waka Waka Bang Splat as a reference to help you figure out what to call it. In this case for ** I would call it double-splat, though there are some alternate names for symbols.

Chapter 1. python 2.0 - 1.55.0 - 0 views

  • The Boost Python Library is a framework for interfacing Python and C++. It allows you to quickly and seamlessly expose C++ classes functions and objects to Python, and vice-versa, using no special tools -- just your C++ compiler. It is designed to wrap C++ interfaces non-intrusively, so that you should not have to change the C++ code at all in order to wrap it, making Boost.Python ideal for exposing 3rd-party libraries to Python. The library's use of advanced metaprogramming techniques simplifies its syntax for users, so that wrapping code takes on the look of a kind of declarative interface definition language (IDL).

Ternary conditional operator in Python - Stack Overflow - 0 views

    Yes, it was added in version 2.5. It's frowned upon by some pythonistas, so keep that in mind. The syntax is: a if test else b First test is evaluated, then either a or b is returned based on the Boolean value of test; if test evaluates to True a is returned, else b is returned. For example: >>> 'true' if True else 'false' 'true' >>> 'true' if False else 'false' 'false'
