pytools 2013.5.5

A collection of tools for Python

Pytools is a big bag of things that are “missing” from the Python standard

library. This is mainly a dependency of my other software packages, and is probably of little interest to you unless you use those. If you’re curious nonetheless, here’s what’s on offer:

• A ton of small tool functions such as len_iterable, argmin, tuple generation, permutation generation, ASCII table pretty printing, GvR’s mokeypatch_xxx() hack, the elusive flatten, and much more.

• Michele Simionato’s decorator module

• A time-series logging module, pytools.log.

• Batch job submission, pytools.batchjob.

• A lexer, pytools.lex.
