A Byte of Python A Byte of Python is a beginner's book on Python by Swaroop C H. "If all you know about computers is how to save text files, then this is the book for you," the site says. It's been used in several academic programs, such as the above mentioned UC Davis course, and by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. It's available for both Python 2.X and 3.0, but only the 3.0 version is still updated. A hard copy version is available. Originally from : http://www.swaroopch.com/notes/Python

Welcome to Flask’s documentation. This documentation is divided into different parts. I recommend that you get started with Installation and then head over to the Quickstart. Besides the quickstart there is also a more detailed Tutorial that shows how to create a complete (albeit small) application with Flask. If you’d rather dive into the internals of Flask, check out the API documentation. Common patterns are described in the Patterns for Flask section. Flask depends on two external libraries: the Jinja2 template engine and the Werkzeug WSGI toolkit. These libraries are not documented here.

This is a follow up post to How Hacker News ranking algorithm works. This time around I will examine how Reddit's default story and comment rankings work. Reddit's algorithms are fairly simple to understand and to implement and in this post I'll dig deeper into them. The first part of this post will focus on story ranking, i.e. how are Reddit stories ranked? The second part of this post will focus on comment ranking, which does not use the same ranking as stories (unlike Hacker News), Reddit's comment ranking algorithm is quite interesting and the idea guy behind it is Randall Munroe (the author of xkcd).
