python - How can I treat this ampersand as text? - 


from googlefinance import getquotes  print(getquotes("nse:m\&mfin"),)

the ampersand being treated code want treat text; bad request exception:

traceback (most recent call last):   file "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>   file "/.../site-packages/googlefinance/__init__.py", line 70, in getquotes     content = json.loads(request(symbols))   file "/.../site-packages/googlefinance/__init__.py", line 33, in request     resp = urlopen(req)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 223, in urlopen     return opener.open(url, data, timeout)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 532, in open     response = meth(req, response)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 642, in http_response     'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 570, in error     return self._call_chain(*args)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 504, in _call_chain     result = func(*args)   file "/.../urllib/request.py", line 650, in http_error_default     raise httperror(req.full_url, code, msg, hdrs, fp) urllib.error.httperror: http error 400: bad request

i tried escape (using \) did not work either.

how can treat ampersand text?

the library rather naive in appends symbols url without proper encoding, see the source code:

def buildurl(symbols):     symbol_list = ','.join([symbol symbol in symbols])     # deprecated still active & correct api     return 'http://finance.google.com/finance/info?client=ig&q=' \         + symbol_list

you can work around manually quoting front, using urllib.parse.quote() function:

from urllib.parse import quote  print(getquotes(quote("nse:m&mfin")))

demo:

>>> googlefinance import getquotes >>> urllib.parse import quote >>> print(getquotes(quote("nse:m&mfin"))) [{'id': '11784956', 'stocksymbol': 'm&mfin', 'index': 'nse', 'lasttradeprice': '416.55', 'lasttradewithcurrency': '&#8377;416.55', 'lasttradetime': '3:30pm gmt+5:30', 'lasttradedatetime': '2017-08-18t15:30:00z', 'lasttradedatetimelong': 'aug 18, 3:30pm gmt+5:30'}]

Is there a better way to structure post methods in Class Based Views -

i'm using class based views in django , never specify url in ajax calls , omit action parameter in form because know these requests go through post method of class based view. notice view - profile page make many requests depending on user updating on page - post method become convoluted , if/else mess example: def post(self, request, *args, **kwargs): # handle user changing available date if request.post.get('availabledate') != none: self.updateavailabledate(request) return jsonresponse({'result':'success'}) if request.post.get('newprojectname') != none: creative_user = creativeuserprofile.objects.get(id = request.user.id) project = project.create_project(creative_user, request.post['newprojectname']) project.save() return jsonresponse({'projectid': project.id }) if request.post.get('projectimage') != none , request.files['file']: proj

performance - Why is XCHG reg, reg a 3 micro-op instruction on modern Intel architectures? -

i'm doing micro-optimization on performance critical part of code , came across sequence of instructions (in at&t syntax): add %rax, %rbx mov %rdx, %rax mov %rbx, %rdx i thought had use case xchg allow me shave instruction , write: add %rbx, %rax xchg %rax, %rdx however, dimay found agner fog's instruction tables , xchg 3 micro-op instruction 2 cycle latency on sandy bridge, ivy bridge, broadwell, haswell , skylake. 3 whole micro-ops , 2 cycles of latency! 3 micro-ops throws off 4-1-1-1 cadence , 2 cycle latency makes worse original in best case since last 2 instructions in original might execute in parallel. now... cpu might breaking instruction micro-ops equivalent to: mov %rax, %tmp mov %rdx, %rax mov %tmp, %rdx where tmp anonymous internal register , suppose last 2 micro-ops run in parallel latency 2 cycles. given register renaming occurs on these micro-architectures, though, doesn't make sense me done way. why wouldn't register renamer

jquery - Responsive Navbar with Sub Navbar -

good day, forgive me nav vocabulary not best. if question confusing apologize. i'm working on navigation bar needs centered on page @ 768px , above. items in nav open (or perhaps toggle) subnav lives directly below. these nav should appear centered on page. i have been able work through responsive portion of nav bar, having main items align vertically , sub nav menu of each item roll out below, , gave them indent separation. working well. however, issue not responsive side, behavior @ width greater 768px. happens toggling menu's sub navigation pushes other main items down page below sub nav. here's code: $(document).ready(function () { //stick in fixed 100% height behind navbar don't wrap $('#slide-nav.navbar-inverse').after($('<div class="inverse" id="navbar-height-col"></div>')); $('#slide-nav.navbar-default').after($('<div id="navbar-height-col"></d
