| 11:40 | < GS|coding> | wow. that's awesome! |

| 11:48 | <@jerith> | I always thought you were a closet Lisper, gnolam. |
| 11:49 | < GS|coding> | a closet lisper? |
| 11:49 | < GS|coding> | is lisping a bad thing? |
| 11:50 | <@jerith> | Nope. |
| 11:51 | <@jerith> | Sussman is one of the authors of SICP, which is the seminal CS textbook teaching programming in Lisp. |
| 11:51 | <@jerith> | Well, Scheme. But close enough. |
| 11:54 | < GS|coding> | Yeah, I was thinking along the lines of Scheme, too. |
| 12:03 | <@gnolam> | And you are correct. Closet Schemer anyway. |
| 12:03 | <@gnolam> | Common Lisp I don't care much for... |
| 12:07 | < GS|coding> | hooray for Scheme! |

| 15:26 | < GS|coding> | quick python question: |
| 15:27 | < GS|coding> | nevermind. |
| 15:27 | <@jerith> | Aww, you can't do that to me. :-( |
| 15:27 | <@jerith> | I was all in suspenders and now there's an anticlimax. |
| 15:27 | < GS|coding> | well, I may still have it. |
| 15:27 | < GS|coding> | I think i figured it out. |
| 15:28 | < GS|coding> | I can search within a list of strings for a smaller substring, right? |
| 15:28 | <@jerith> | Not directly, I don't think. |
| 15:28 | <@jerith> | You'd have to use a list comprehension or something. |
| 15:29 | < GS|coding> | ok, thanks. |
| 15:30 | < GS|coding> | I've got a list of keys, that are ascdate strings (necessary for the problem), I'm trying tomatch the month. |

| 15:38 | < GS|coding> | regular expressions... perhaps that's where I should've gone first. |
| 15:42 | <@jerith> | substr()? |

| 15:52 | < GeekSoldier> | I essentially want to grep any key that has a part that equals a varable, and store those into a new list. |
| 15:59 | <@jerith> | [key, val for key, val in myDict if key.find(var) > -1] |
| 16:01 | <@jerith> | Something like that? |
| 16:01 | <@jerith> | find() will return -1 if the substring isn't found. |
| 16:01 | < GeekSoldier> | I believe that will work. Thanks. |
| 16:02 | < GeekSoldier> | I forgot to do the last 'if key.find(match) > -1' part. |
| 16:02 | < GeekSoldier> | that would certainly do it. |

| 16:43 | | * gnolamute boggles. |
| 16:44 | <@gnolamute> | Explain to me how someone can fail to learn what the / operator does... |
| 16:44 | | * jerith contemplates bogglage. |
| 16:44 | <@jerith> | Heh. |
| 16:44 | < GeekSoldier> | it fractions, right? |
| 16:44 | | * GeekSoldier hides. |
| 16:47 | <@ToxicFrog> | Well...yes. It's the division operator. |
| 16:47 | <@ToxicFrog> | So, yeah, unless you're completely unacquainted with basic mathematics I don't see how that's possible. |
| 16:50 | <@gnolamute> | I can understand missing out on %. But / is just... insanity. |
| 16:51 | < GeekSoldier> | is it.... madness? |
