CPython VS ipython

Hi eesmith, thanks for your insight! I've applied a lot of the improvements you mentioned, the collections.Counter one didn't even cross my mind- very neat:)

The lines are processed independently as they are separate sentences. One line may be from one source, and the next from a completely different source. The problem with simply concatenating them is that the target words on the boundaries between sentences can end up with context words from unrelated sentences.

Then you may enjoy this april fool's python issue I made https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/103172

Yeah, I like using utf-8 chars for mathematical symbols, it makes my brain hurt a little less when mapping between the two! I also like using ŷ for predictions in ML contexts as that's the canonical symbol used in the literature.

So I wanted to test this out with Python, as I want to embed Python to allow support for scripting in my app. However, as you can see in the Readme here, the build process for Windows and MacOS is a bit different (Mac involves running Make, while Windows just runs a bat file). Neither are complicated, but I originally assumed that the process would be basically the same, and I could use a CMakeLists that wasn't platform specific.

We'll also end up using Python, Docker and Git.

Anything using inspect.getargspec due to this change.

There’s not a single best route but I’d suggest spending an evening with Scratch, then learn a bit of Python via Codecademy. After that, I recommend either Godot, Java, or C++.

It can be useful in some uncommon use cases to make some, let's say, "magic" classes. For example, the enum module in the stdlib makes use of __new__ to create enum classes.

Here are links to things that I talked about in this comment. Python (High Level Programming language) https://www.python.org/, Visual Studio Code (A Code Editor) https://code.visualstudio.com/, Stack Overflow (Programming Questions) https://stackoverflow.com/, W3 Schools (Learning Programming Languages) https://www.w3schools.com/.

!pip install is error-prone, it is better to use %pip install, ipython even warns about this, https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/12954/

If not, why not open an issue at https://github.com/ipython/ipython asking for clarification of the docs?

The git history (here is the git blame) shows it has not been updated in 9 year. Looks like a documentation issue that you should open an issue against.

Do you know IPython? It is a modern Python console that extends the capabilities of the classic builtin Python shell by offering introspection, tab completion, syntaxing coloring, as well as history. If you don't know it, I can't recommend it enough. More information can be found in its GitHub page.

For further documentation on ipython using the CLI, you can refer to the GitHub link or the documentation page.

There’s one I’ve come across recently here where you’re fighting against syntax highlighting with extra error context. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/13446#issuecomment...

I see. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/13529

You can automate setup for developers using this simple script:

And here’s a GitLab issue requesting support for blame-ignore:

https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/31423

I don’t think there’s a corresponding GitHub request, but maybe if GitLab adds this feature GitHub will have some incentive to follow suit.

Here’s a script that automates the once-per-repository local setup of this feature:

https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/12091/files

Unfortunately there isn’t support for it in GitHub or GitLab yet, but there’s at least a GitLab issue here requesting it:
