Rewriting my application on Django,
I needed to import classes without knowing their names first
(just reading them out of a directory).
Obviously something like this:

1
2

module_name = 'module_foo'
import module_name

1
2
3
4

urllib = __import__(name='urllib') # import urllib</p>
<p>#lets say we want &quot;from lxml import etree as tree_module&quot;
lxml_module = __import__(name='lxml', fromlist=['etree'])
tree_module = lxml_module.etree

After a long period of developing,
the new version of Berlin On Feier is ready!

In an expected move (it was almost done a few days ago, and has been in the making),
Google announced it bought Waze.
Waze - The Social GPS App from Israel, has been greatly popular within car drivers, helping people dodge traffic jams,
road blocks, and a lot more, was created at 2008 (which makes it one of the firsts of its kind).

Calculating the distance between 2 points (longitude and latitude) certainly sounds like something that should be solved on the code layer, not on the database layer.

Parsing with lxml (Python library ) is a very good experience, especially compared to PHP.
An example advantage is that every element found by XPath is once again searchable
(whereas with PHP you can only provide it as a context, but you must provide the DOM ).
However, I came across a case where I needed to split the result to a list (split on python, explode on PHP).
