This is an assortment of Python tools that I have/will write/n, usually because they help me. If something that I've bodged together can be made to work within 4h of work to a standard I can publish, I'll throw it in here

These tools are all published as one package, but are all used with seperate import statements. To install:

sudo pip install FelPy

This will install everything automagically.

This uses the import listFormat. It uses a class, and must be instantiated as follows:

variableName = listFormat.Formatter()

If you wish to give it an list to start, just put one inbetween the brackets. The list can be added to like so:

variableName.add("List item")

To randomize, or scramble, the order of the items in the list, run:

variableName.randomize()

To simply take out the raw list, run:

variableName.simpleOutput()

Or, to format to a 2D list, use:

variableName.formatOutput(x,y)

Where x and y are the width and height of the desired list.

All of the above methods work standalone.

print(listFormat.random(["a","b"]))

print(listFormat.formatOutput(["a","b","c","d"],2,2))

This is another import, confReturn

Very simply, run it like so:

variableName = confReturn.do("gender")

Where "gender" can be any string being set. Play arround with it in IDLE, you'll get the gist of it.

For this one, import leaderboard

It will generate a 10 line leaderboard. You can write to it with a name, up to 10 characters, and a points value, between 0 and 99. When placing entries, they are sorted first by value, so higher scores occur higher up. If you are adding an entry when there is already an entry with the same points value, the new entry will appear above.

All of the functions below will accept one (more) parameter, the filename. Without it, it will default to filename.txt. Leaderboard data is stored as UTF-8 text, but can be given any file extension. NB: Remember to include a file extension (I personally like .lbd) if you are using a custom filename.

To generate (or clear) a leaderboard:

leaderboard.make()

To write to the leaderboard:

leaderboard.write(points, name)

To read the leaderboard (outputs as a 10-line String):

leaderboard.read()

Financial aid is always welcome at Paypal, or of couse feel free to fork the project. If you do fork, please make pull requests back - I am always looking to improve my work.
