When writing a python function, I accidentally discovered a problem: variables in python cannot start with a number. A variable 3_num_varchar is defined in the following function, and an error occurs when executed.
The function is as follows:
def database_feild_varchar_trans(in_feild): ''' transfer the feild if varchar then 3times lang else no transfer ''' feild_split = in_feild.split(' ') is_varchar = feild_split[1].find('VARCHAR') if is_varchar >= 0 : num_varchar = feild_split[1].replace('VARCHAR','').replace('(','').replace(')','') print (num_varchar) 3_num_varchar = num_varchar*3 feild_split[1] = feild_split[1].replace(str(num_varchar),str(3_num_varchar)) return feild_split else: print ('The feild type is not varchar') return feild_split
The error message is as follows:
>>> runfile('E:/procedure/python/projects/others/table_test.py', wdir='E:/procedure/python/projects/others') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "D:\Python33\lib\site-packages\spyderlib\widgets\externalshell\sitecustomize.py", line 699, in runfile execfile(filename, namespace) File "D:\Python33\lib\site-packages\spyderlib\widgets\externalshell\sitecustomize.py", line 88, in execfile exec(compile(open(filename, 'rb').read(), filename, 'exec'), namespace) File "E:/procedure/python/projects/others/table_test.py", line 20 3_num_varchar = int(num_varchar)*3 ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax 将变量3_num_varchar改为num_varchar_3,运行成功,程序改为如下: import os import sys str1='aaa varchar(10)' def database_feild_varchar_trans(in_feild): ''' transfer the feild if varchar then 3times lang else no transfer ''' feild_split = in_feild.split(' ') is_varchar = feild_split[1].find('VARCHAR') if is_varchar >= 0 : num_varchar = feild_split[1].replace('VARCHAR','').replace('(','').replace(')','') print (num_varchar) num_varchar_3 = num_varchar*3 feild_split[1] = feild_split[1].replace(str(num_varchar),str(num_varchar_3)) return feild_split else: print ('The feild type is not varchar') return feild_split print (database_feild_varchar_trans(str1))
Run result:
>>> runfile('E:/procedure/python/projects/others/table_test.py', wdir='E:/procedure/python/projects/others') The feild type is not varchar ['aaa', 'varchar(10)']
The above detailed explanation of python variables that cannot start with a number is all the content shared by the editor. I hope it can give you a reference, and I hope you will support Script Home more.
