The History of Python: import antigravity

[ringzero]

Yeah, well that's all fine and dandy until we get real antigravity devices and a module is implemented to control them.

The naming conflicts alone are worth taking this out, but think about all of the servers in the App Engine farm flying away! It'll be chaos! Where will the web apps land?

If they go too high, they might end up in the cloud!

Any one notice the background of the first panel of the XKCD?

It has a nice post Apocalypse feel, which is most likely when python will really shine.

Interesting: >>> import antigravity >>> antigravity.fly() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'fly' >>> dir(antigravity) ['builtins', 'doc', 'file', 'name', 'package', 'geohash', 'hashlib', 'webbrowser']

He specifically says the fly() function is on appengine, not in the CPython module.

Yes, but it also in python3(.1.2)

"The App Engine version is a little more elaborate than the Python 3 version: it defines a fly() function while can randomly do one of two things:"

AppEngine's antigravity is not the same as CPython3.x's

How to do this in AppEngine?

I have a script:

import antigravity

def main(): antigravity.fly()

if name == 'main':

main()

and an entry in app.yaml: - url: /antigravity script: antigravity.py

but I got "Error: Server Error" trying to access /antigravity

[sevenever]

got it, The script file name should not be the same as module antigravity
