A typical use would be generating a customized PowerPoint presentation from database content, downloadable by clicking a link in a web application. Several developers have used it to automate production of presentation-ready engineering status reports based on information held in their work management system. It could also be used for making bulk updates to a library of presentations or simply to automate the production of a slide or two that would be tedious to get right by hand. More information is available in the python-pptx documentation. Browse examples with screenshots to get a quick idea what you can do with python-pptx. Contents 1 python-pptx Documentation, Release 0.6.21 2 Contents CHAPTER 1 Feature Support python-pptx has the following capabilities, with many more on the roadmap: • Round-trip any Open XML presentation (.pptx file) including all its elements • Add slides • Populate text placeholders, for example to create a bullet slide • Add image to slide at arbitrary position and size • Add textbox to a slide; manipulate text font size and bold • Add table to a slide • Add auto shapes (e.g. polygons, flowchart shapes, etc.) to a slide • Add and manipulate column, bar, line, and pie charts • Access and change core document properties such as title and subject Additional capabilities are actively being developed and added on a release cadence of roughly once per month. If you find a feature you need that python-pptx doesn’t yet have, reach out via the mailing list or issue tracker and we’ll see if we can jump the queue for you to pop it in there :) 3 python-pptx Documentation, Release 0.6.21 4 Chapter 1. Feature Support CHAPTER 2 User Guide 2.1 Introduction python-pptx is a Python library for creating and updating PowerPoint (.pptx) files. A typical use would be generating a customized PowerPoint presentation from database content, downloadble by clicking a link in a web application. Several developers have used it to automate production of presentation-ready engineering status reports based on information held in their work management system. It could also be used for making bulk updates to a library of presentations or simply to automate the production of a slide or two that would be tedious to get right by hand. This user guide is tutorial in nature, introducing concepts along with code examples that I hope will allow you to learn what you need while addressing the real-life PowerPoint challenges you’re working on. 2.1.1 python-pptx License The MIT License (MIT) Copyright (c) 2013 Steve Canny, https://github.com/scanny Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associ- ated documentation files (the “Software”), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

The charting features depend on XlsxWriter. Both pip and easy_install will take care of satisfying these dependencies for you, but if you use the setup.py installation method you will need to install the dependencies yourself. Currently python-pptx requires Python 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.6. The tests are run against 2.7 and 3.6 on Travis CI. 2.2.1 Dependencies • Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.6 • lxml • Pillow • XlsxWriter (to use charting features) 2.3 Getting Started A quick way to get started is by trying out some of the examples below to get a feel for how to use python-pptx. The API documentation can help you with the fine details of calling signatures and behaviors. 2.3.1 Hello World! example 6 Chapter 2. User Guide python-pptx Documentation, Release 0.6.21 from pptx import Presentation prs= Presentation() title_slide_layout= prs.slide_layouts[0] slide= prs.slides.add_slide(title_slide_layout) title= slide.shapes.title subtitle= slide.placeholders[1] title.text="Hello, World!" subtitle.text="python-pptx was here!" prs.save('test.pptx') 2.3.2 Bullet slide example from pptx import Presentation prs= Presentation() bullet_slide_layout= prs.slide_layouts[1] slide= prs.slides.add_slide(bullet_slide_layout) shapes= slide.shapes title_shape= shapes.title body_shape= shapes.placeholders[1] (continues on next page) 2.3. Getting Started 7 python-pptx Documentation, Release 0.6.21 (continued from previous page) title_shape.text='Adding a Bullet Slide' tf= body_shape.text_frame tf.text='Find the bullet slide layout' p= tf.add_paragraph() p.text='Use _TextFrame.text for first bullet' p.level=1 p= tf.add_paragraph() p.text='Use _TextFrame.add_paragraph() for subsequent bullets' p.level=2 prs.save('test.pptx') Not all shapes can contain text, but those that do always have at least one paragraph, even if that paragraph is empty and no text is visible within the shape. _BaseShape.has_text_frame can be used to determine whether a shape can contain text. (All shapes subclass _BaseShape.) When _BaseShape.has_text_frame is True, _BaseShape.text_frame.paragraphs[0] returns the first paragraph. The text of the first paragraph can be set using text_frame.paragraphs[0].text. As a shortcut, the writable properties _BaseShape.text and _TextFrame.text are provided to accomplish the same thing. Note that these last two calls delete all the shape’s paragraphs except the first one before setting the text it contains. 2.3.3 add_textbox() example from pptx import Presentation from pptx.util import Inches, Pt (continues on next page) 8 Chapter 2.

  • Python - a Crash Course
    Python - A Crash Course Antonio Lima Networks and Distributed Systems 2012-2013 School of Computer Science - University of Birmingham 15 March 2013 Last week's Homework Write a Python program that counts the occurrences of words in a wordlist. counter = {} with open(filename, "r") as f: for line in f: if line in counter: counter[line] += 1 else: counter[line] = 1 We are asking permission. It's easier to ask forgiveness. Last week's Homework You ask forgiveness by executing a task and recovering if there is an error. counter = {} with open(filename, "r") as f: for line in f: try: counter[line] += 1 except KeyError: counter[line] = 1 That's much better (one operation less). But there's even a more pythonic solution. Last week's Homework You ask forgiveness by executing a task and recovering if there is an error. import collections counter = collections.defaultdict(int) with open(filename, "r") as f: for line in f: counter[line] += 1 5 lines, very readable, correct. Pythonic. Why using Python for Networking? • Well, why not? • Many successful companies/startups are using it. • Google, Yahoo, Dropbox, Quora, Disqus, ... • A lot of libraries are available. • You can build prototypes quickly.

  • Master Thesis
    MASTER THESIS TITLE: Analysis and evaluation of high performance web servers MASTER DEGREE: Master in Science in Telecommunication Engineering & Management AUTHOR: Albert Hidalgo Barea DIRECTOR: Rubén González Blanco SUPERVISOR: Roc Meseguer Pallarès DATE: July 13 th 2011 Title: Analysis and evaluation of high performance web servers Author: Albert Hidalgo Barea Director: Rubén González Blanco Supervisor: Roc Meseguer Pallarès Date: July 13 th 2011 Overview Web servers are a very important tool when providing users with requested content on the Internet. Usage of the Internet is growing day-by-day, making those software applications essential. In the first part of the thesis, the web server world will be introduced to the reader, by giving a brief explanation of some of the available technologies as well as different dynamic protocols. Also, as there are different web servers available in the market, during this report it will be chosen the best performing ones. So, it will be presented a comparative chart between all of them in order to show the most important features of each one. Defining the scenario and the test cases is mandatory. For this reason, it is described the used hardware and software used to perform those benchmarks. The hardware is maintained equal during the whole test process, in order to let web server’s performance gaps to their internal architecture. Operating system and benchmarking tools are also described and given some examples. Furthermore, test cases are chosen to show some strengths and weakness of each web server, enabling us to compare the relative performance between them. Finally, the last part of the report consists on presenting the obtained results during the benchmark process, as well as presenting some lessons learned during the curse of the whole thesis, summing-up with some conclusions.

The publication of the volumes of TAP sketches by Pacific Linguistics has enabled the large volume of work on these languages to be brought together in a comprehensive and comparable way. In this third volume, five new descriptions of TAP languages are presented. Taken together with the handful of reference grammars (see Section 3), these volumes have achieved descriptive coverage of around 90% of modern-day TAP languages.

  • An Introduction to Python for Absolute Beginners
    An introduction to Python for absolute beginners Bob Dowling University Computing Service [email protected] http://www.ucs.cam.ac.uk/docs/course-notes/unix-courses/PythonAB 1 Welcome to the Computing Service's course “Introduction to Python”. This course is designed for people with absolutely no experience of programming. If you have any experience in programming other languages you are going to find this course extremely boring and you would be better off attending our course "Python for Programmers" where we teach you how to convert what you know from other programming languages to Python. This course is based around Python version 3. Python has recently undergone a change from Python 2 to Python 3 and there are some incompatibilities between the two versions. The older versions of this course were based around Python 2 but this course is built on Python 3. Python is named after Monty Python and its famous flying circus, not the snake. It is a trademark of the Python Software Foundation. 1 Course outline ― 1 Who uses Python & what for What sort of language it is How to launch Python Python scripts Text Names for values Reading in user data Numbers Conversions Comparisons Truth & Falsehood 2 2 Course outline ― 2 Assignment Names Our first “real” program Loops if… else… Indentation Comments 3 3 Course outline ― 3 Lists Indices Lengths Changing items Extending lists Methods Creating lists Testing lists Removing from lists for… loop Iterables Slices 4 4 Course outline ― 4 Files Reading & writing Writing our own functions
