generate cryptographically secure passwords in Python, and report the bits of entropy for a given length password based on the CHOICES you allow for random selection. random.SystemRandom() uses /dev/urandom on a *nix operating system, which should be cryptographically secure. There are some potential caveats / things I haven't explored fully, bu…

Scala for Python Programmers, examples
/*
Notes:
Despite Scala's appearances, it is, in fact, a Statically Typed language.
It has just eliminated a great deal of the "type vomit" people are used
to seeing in Statically Typed languages (e.g. C, C++, Java). It often
can infer the type on its own. It also combines functional and
object-oriented programming paradigms in a fashion that feels similar
to Python.

Diff two repositories, file by file, to verify they're the same. Output all diffs if there are any. Written out of our mutual distrust of destructive, history-modifying mercurial extensions.

Helper method to encapsulate SQL injection safe "WHERE __ in (...)" clauses with Python's MySQLdb driver. An amalgamation from this SO post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/589284/imploding-a-list-for-use-in-a-python-mysqldb-in-clause
