python - Why is this returning an extra none? - 


def hotel_cost(nights):     return nights * 140  bill = hotel_cost(5)  def add_monthly_interest(balance):     return balance * (1 + (0.15 / 12))  def make_payment(payment, balance):      new_balance2 = balance - payment     new_balance = add_monthly_interest(new_balance2)     print "you still owe: " + str(new_balance)  make_payment(100,bill)

why return

you still owe: 607.5 none

?

it doesn't return that. returns none, because that's function returns if don't have return statement.

meanwhile, prints out "you still owe: 607.5", because that's what's in print statement.

(by "it" here, i'm assuming you're referring function call make_payment(100, bill).)

my guess you're running inside ide or other interactive session that's printing out return value of each statement. so, code prints "you still owe: 607.5", , interactive interpreter prints "none".

the default python interactive interpreter (like ipython , bpython , many others) swallow none returns instead of printing them out. whichever 1 you're using presumably doesn't that.

linux - xterm copying to CLIPBOARD using copy-selection causes automatic updating of CLIPBOARD upon mouse selection -

i've tried various ways coerce xterm (versions 285 , 292) copy selection clipboard clipboard whenever press ctrl-shift-c. promising way far has been, in ~/.xresources, put this: xterm*vt100.translations: #override \ ctrl shift <keypress> c: copy-selection(clipboard) \n\ ctrl shift <keypress> v: insert-selection(clipboard) ctrl-shift-v works perfectly, copying has nuance... if restart xterm, highlighting text puts things in primary clipboard; expected, proper, default behavior. if hit ctrl-shift-c, copies current selection clipboard clipboard. the bug, however, if highlight text after first time pressed ctrl-shift-c, you'll see highlighting copies both primary and clipboard. cannot figure out how stop xterm updating clipboard upon selection... , doesn't make sense me in first place. i said, @ specific point in time, copy selection clipboard... yet starts updating automatically upon selection after doing once... anyone have workaround...

c++ - qgraphicsview horizontal scrolling always has a vertical delta -

Image
i've subclassed qgraphicsview custom canvas used in cad application. i've reimplemented qgraphicsview::wheelevent check keyboard modifiers control key and, if control key pressed, zoom. i'm trying implement horizontal scroll when user holds shift , uses wheel. the problem i'm having horizontal scrolling always scrolls 0.279. not huge problem, hugely annoying , points else being wrong. so, here questions: is right way implement horizontal scrolling? if not, is? how eliminate delta of 0.279? thanks in advance. code , sample output below void myview::zoom(int delta) { double factor = pow(1.2, delta/abs(delta)); this->scale(factor, factor); } void myview::scrollhorizontal(int level) { qpointf center = maptoscene(viewport()->rect().center()); qdebug() << "center: " << center.x() << ", " << center.y(); centeron(qpointf(center.x() - level, center.y())); } void myview::wheelevent(qwheeleve...
