It's new. Go learn Ruby so you can enjoy it.  |

Ah- good.
Ruby needed a forum- it seems to be getting really popular. |

Nawww... I'm working on Haskell for the next popular language here.
Oh, and if you have any Python questions, ask away. |

Beginner's Guide
As for reading web pages...
| code: | from urllib2 import urlopen, Request, URLError
request = Request(url="http://www.compsci.ca")
try:
web_page_handle = urlopen(request)
contents = web_page_handle.read()
print contents
except URLError:
print "Couldn't open the URL."
except:
print "Some unexpected error occurred."
finally:
f.close() |
For what it's worth, the equivalent Ruby:
| code: | require 'open-uri'
begin
web_page_handle = open "http://www.compsci.ca"
contents = web_page_handle.read
puts contents
rescue SocketError
puts "Couldn't open the URL."
rescue
puts "Some unexpected error occurred."
ensure
f.close
end |

Ruby Forum!
Awsomeness....now perhaps I'll be inspired enough to continue learning that language. From what little I know of it (and I mean *little*), it's completely deserving of all the attention it gets.
So, does that mean that wtd gets to be bumped to Ruby Moderator status? |

hmm probably although all mod decissions are taken by the senior staff (compsci board of directors  )
you see compsci.ca has become more communistic vs dictatored. and hell no its not democratic. 
but finally its up to wtd, to accpet or decline. |

But wtd, what about your... responsibilities?

I'm more about inspiring others to make great discoveries, then taking a small part of the credit.  |
