Can you explain to me with # comments on each line how to make this work. import time import os not_executed = 1 while(not_executed): dt = list(time.localtime(time.time()) hour = dt[3] minute = dt[4] if hour == 5 and minute == 45: os.popen2("open /Users/jun/shout.mp3") not_executed = 0 Error Message; $ python AlarmClock File "AlarmClock", line 7 dt = list(time.localtime(time.time()) ^ IndentationError: expected an indented block </blockquote> It's because of Python's always charming significant whitespace. I.E. Python uses indenting instead of braces, making problems like this extremely common. (No sane language even has "IndentationErrors". Also, you were missing a paren, but that's not what caused the error above. A correct version is attached. Hopefully it will not get mangled by your client. Matt Flaschen </blockquote> I ran yo $ python times.py Welcome to the talking alarm clock This program is public domain Traceback (most recent call last): File "times.py", line 1, in <module> import time File "/home/mickey/time.py", line 8, in <module> t = time.localtime(time.time()) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'localtime' Python is having problems of execute this line. t = time.localtime(time.time()) </blockquote> 1) This is getting offtopic 2) You need to at least send us the script you're using 3) There is no way that that line of code doesn't work if you did `import time` first 4) You may want to check and IRC channel such as irc://<a href="http://freenode.net/fedora" target="_blank">freenode.net/fedora</a> </blockquote> Also, there are several alarm apps already in Fedora, it doesn't seem like you're trying to learn Python, so might be best to just use an already existing app. </blockquote> I told you in the beginning I know nothing about Python. I'm getting answers that assume, I know what your talking about, I don't, I just have a script that I'm asking how it works. What are the other scripts that are already in Fedora. </blockquote> I know nothing about python either..... But the comments of others has got me to .... import time import os not_executed = 1 while(not_executed): dt = list(time.localtime(time.time())) hour = dt[3] minute = dt[4] if hour == 5 and minute == 45: os.popen2("open /Users/jun/shout.mp3") not_executed = 0 I added a "tab" to Lines 7 and 8 as well as a closing ) on Line 7. Note that blank lines are counted. Line 11 also has a tab added. Hope that helps...and I hope my formatting survives. </blockquote></div></div></blockquote><div> #!/usr/bin/env python import time import os not_executed = 1 while (not_executed): dt = list(time.localtime(time.time())) hour = dt[3] minute = dt[4] if hour == 22 and minute == 58: os.spawnv (os.P_WAIT, "/usr/bin/mpg123", ["mpg123", "/home/mp3/Abba/Gold/queen.mp3"] ) not_executed = 0</div></div> -- Paulo Roma Cavalcanti LCG - UFRJ
