parsing - DateTime.TryParse() in Python? -

is there equivalent c#'s datetime.tryparse() in python?

edit:

i'm referring fact avoids throwing exception, not fact guesses format.

if don't want exception, grab exception.

try: d = datetime.datetime.strptime(s, "%y-%m-%d %h:%m:%s") except valueerror: d = none

in zen of python, explicit improve implicit. strptime always returns datetime parsed in exact format specified. makes sense, because have define behavior in case of failure, maybe want is.

except valueerror: d = datetime.datetime.now()

or

except valueerror: d = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(0)

or

except valueerror: raise webframework.servererror(404, "invalid date")

by making explicit, it's clear next person reads failover behavior is, , need be.

or maybe you're confident date cannot invalid, it's coming database datetime, column, in case there wont' exception catch, , don't grab it.

.net - Transaction locking an Insert statement -

.net - Transaction locking an Insert statement - i have outer distributed transaction locking (hanging) insert statement table. don't have command on outer transaction. how avoid blocking @ granular level. tried set transaction suppress around insert @ .net level. didn't work. please @ image detailed information. any solution kind of issue helpful. appreciate support. that expected if there strong crossover between 2 operations looking at, , aren't in same transaction. outer transaction has presumably taken key-range lock causing block (at guess outer transaction "serializable" isolation-level). there nil can here, except: enlist/operate in same transaction, rather operate outside it lower isolation level of outer operation, no key-range lock generated if outer operation query (a select, not insert/update/delete), utilize nolock or similar avoid locking it) if can't of things, can't insert without breaking integrity - won't a...

clojure - Best way to lazily collapse multiple contiguous items of a sequence into a single item -

clojure - Best way to lazily collapse multiple contiguous items of a sequence into a single item - [note: title , text heavily edited create more clear i'm not particularly after strings, after general sequences, , lazy processing of same] using character sequences / strings example, want turn string like "\t a\r      s\td \t \r \n          f \r\n" into " s d f " in more general terms, want turn contiguous whitespace (or other arbitray set of items) in sequence single item, , lazily. i've come next partition-by/mapcat combo, wonder if there easier or otherwise improve ways (readability, performance, anything) accomplish same thing. (defn is-wsp?

remove Repeat values from a list in haskell -

remove Repeat values from a list in haskell - i need accomplish few tasks in haskell: find maximum of list, along number of times occurs: maxcount [2,4,7,2,3] --> [7,1] remove repeated values list delrep [1,3,2,1,4] --> [3,2,4] delete instances of element list: delete [1,3,4,1] 1 --> [3,4] question 1. maxandreps l = allow m = maximum l reps = length $ filter (== m) l in [m,reps] this solution has bad asymptotic performance because list traversed twice. ideally, solution find maximum , count repetitions in 1 pass. if write maximum , filter , , length in terms of fold, should see how combine them single pass. also, more natural homecoming tuple instead of list. question 2. @ using data.set.set . also, output list need in same order? if not, there's particularly easy solution. question 3. above reply question 1 covers this. function removes non-maximum values list, problem. figure out how ...
