### Text File Backup Program                           ###
### By Trinity                                         ###
##########################################################

# :- Init -: #
print "Welcome to the python backup system. You can use it to back up txt files."
print "Made by Trinity"

# :- Get File name -: #
file = raw_input("Enter the name of the file to back up: ")
x = file + ".txt"
z = file + "backup.txt"

# :- Get the os -: #
import os
inp = open(x,"r")
outp = open(z,"w")

for line in inp.readlines():
   outp.write(line)

# :- Confirm -: #
print "Backup Completed..."

print "Thankyou for using this program"
raw_input("Please type exit: ")[/code]

Very simple program, the first working one I made <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

### Times Table Commands                               ###
### By Trinity                                         ###
##########################################################

def print_table(multiplier):
   print "--- Printing the %d times table ---" % multiplier
   for n in range(1,16):
       print "%d x %d = %d" % (n, multiplier, n*multiplier)
   print "------------------------------------------------"
   raw_input("Please type exit...")

# :- Init -: #
print "Welcome to your times table helper!"
print "Now entering the login process..."
print "---------------------------------"

# :- Variables -: #
coruser = "Trinity"
corpass = "password"

# :- Login Code -: #

user = raw_input("Please enter your username: ")
if user == coruser:
   print "Thankyou Trinity"
   password = raw_input("Please enter your password: ")
if user != coruser:
   print "Sorry %s you are not a recognized user!" % user
if password == corpass:
   print "Welcome Trinity, your password has been confirmed"
if password != corpass:
   print "That is the wrong password, please retype it!"
   password = raw_input("Please enter your password: ")
   if password == corpass:
       print "Welcome Trinity, your password has been confirmed"

# :- Times Table Code -: #

x = raw_input("Please enter the times table you would like to know: ")
print_table(10)[/code]

Again, mucking around with a very simple auth system, ends up printing multiples. First time I used a function <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

This was my first major project, I started it but never ended up finishing it - it was a good challenge but in the end it would be a console program with no GUI, and something that would be of little use to me. It was still an interesting excersize <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Here's a pretty useless example of using Tkinter in python, I won't bother explaining it because you can learn all about tkinter [url=\"http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/index.htm\"]here[/url].

[code]from Tkinter import *

class App:
   def __init__(self, master):
       frame=Frame(master)
       frame.pack()

       self.days=Listbox(frame, fg='black', selectbackground='red', selectmode=EXTENDED)
       for day in ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday']:
           self.days.insert(END,day)
           self.days.pack(side=TOP)

       self.list=Button(frame, text='List days', command=self.SelectCheck)
       self.list.pack(side=LEFT)

   def SelectCheck(self):
       print 'You have selected the following days:\n'
       for day in self.days.curselection():
           print self.days.get(day)

root = Tk()
app = App(root)
root.mainloop()[/code]

This little snippet will find five types of audio in a certain directory and return the results in a list.

[code]from glob import *
from string import *

def FindAudio(Directory):
   Audio = []
   Directory += '\\*'
   for Filename in glob(Directory):
       SFilename = Filename.split('.')
       if SFilename[len(SFilename) - 1] in ['midi', 'mp3', 'ogg', 'wav', 'wma']:
           Audio.append(Filename)
   return Audio[/code]

Usage: FindAudio(Directory)

Nice tidy - I used wxPython for GUI instead of Tkinter, it was just too confusing <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />

[Vercz]

[color=\"green\"]never did understand Tkinter..spose thats why i never used it <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/blum.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':P\' />

wxPython all the way!! <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' /> [/color]

Tkinter's a lot less confusing than wxPython, it just doesn't have as many controls, in fact, it's missing quite a few vital ones such as the combo box.
