Problems with range

[Adrian Albisser]

Hey to everybody, im just beginning to program in python. So i was trying
some function but always when i try the range function i get a error
message.

for number in range(1,100):
print number

Error---> There's an error in your program:
expected an indented block

I tried many examples i found at different tutorials but i always get the
error.

Read what the message tells you. The problem is not with your range
function, it's the rest of the program. In Python, indenting is
important; it tells the interpreter which bits go together.

So your program should be:
for number in range(1,100):
print number

Note the 4 spaces at the start of the second line. It doesn't have to be
4 spaces, but that's convention.

I'd suggest you read a good python tutorial - I like
http://www.freenetpages.co.uk/hp/alan.gauld/tutintro.htm

And of course there's http://www.python.org/doc/current/tut/ on the
python site itself.

Hi all,

I'm writing an HTTP client test package in python to test my C++ proxy
server (http://www.summitsage.com/). For this reason I want to construct
the (malformed) HTTP requests myself, but use httplib to parse the
server's response. I don't see an easy way to do this. I suspect I could
construct the response on the socket and have it read the response, but
this is undocumented.

Any suggestions?

tia.

To answer my own question. This isn't documented in the standard python
docs, but it is seems to work:

response = httplib.HTTPResponse(sock)
response.begin()
print response.read()

Try:


for number in range(1,100):
print number
^^
Note the intention.

Basically, any time you have a line ending in :, you'll need to indent
the following line (and maybe more).
