Things I have used Python for:
- Professionally:
- Web server log analysis: typically, read tens of megabytes (sometimes gigabytes) of server logs, identify specific lines, check that states change in the order given in specs, check delays between state changes. In some cases, correlate with the log contents of another server.
- Build/install/deploy applications on these same servers.
- Issue REST calls to servers to obtain data or provision data (once, due to bad management, duplication of effort: them: 2 people, three days, over a thousand lines of Java, me, a couple of hours, 200 lines of Python).
- Various little functions for computations I do often.

- Hobby:
- Enhance my PC.
- Scripts for Gimp, the image editor.
- Various scripts to automate operations on web sites (for instance, Reddit statistics).
- Enhance my PC.
Unless noted otherwise, code in my posts should be understood as "coding suggestions", and its use may require more neurones than the two necessary for Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V.
