property because width
won't wrok for inline elements. I moved the character '-' outside so it looks nicer. You can also wrap this in

Currently, I am using United States Congressional District Shapefiles. I want to make a Cartogram using the steps laid out in the cartogram package. But I cannot seem to make it into the cartogram object using the cartogram_cont

Any help, advice, or insight you can offer in getting me past this point and closer to the cartogram would be incredibly helpful.

QUESTION
Recently I started using a flat file manager called Cardbox to maintain lists of my film and music collections. Cardbox outputs records in both CSV and XML formats and I use the latter to create web pages so that I can easily proofread my work. I would like to convert it to a form of XML that uses the field names as elements rather than as attributes of a common element and eliminates the ...
tags. The software will accept an XSLT transform to do this.
Here is an example of what I would like to do.
...ANSWER

You are missing the fact that your XML puts its elements in a namespace. As a result, your templates do not match anything, and the entire output is produced by the built-in template rules. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/34762628/3016153 how to handle this.
The other thing is that there is no need to list each field and its name explicitly in the stylesheet. You can construct a more dynamic stylesheet that can handle any number of fields, with any names (as long as the names are also valid element names):

following are my files for html, .ts and json . As json data was very extensive therefore i have just added a few states and their cities. my 1st dropdown is showing all states.

...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-27 at 16:44You can do it with the $event
parameter.
Make sure to compare your values safely.
If your value is not in the right type or has spaces or unwanted chars, this c.state == val
might not work.
You can use the trim
function to compare your value safely:
c.state.trim() == val.trim()

QUESTION
I'm very new to Python and I am playing around with my Raspberry Pi and Tweepy. I have some stuff connected via GPIO, and I'd like to control a motor using the sentiment polarity value. The motor should turn on and off like a heart beat (on for 0.1 sec, off for a second, then loops). I would like to change the BPM of the motor according to the sentiment polarity value. However, if I add sleep to the code, Tweepy naturally slows down. Therefore I want to run the motor code in another thread, so that on_data can run without any sleep code, and then I can do any further processing separate from on_data.
For the life of me I can't figure out how to pass the value to that separate thread, however. What's the easiest way to do that?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-02 at 20:08Your issue is that tweet
is only local to your on_data
method.
My recommendation would be to save tweet
as a class attribute instead.

I'm new to Python and APIs in general, so this is probably a basic question with an easy answer. I'm trying to get data on congressional representatives from Propublica's API using Python. I can get the REST API to run, but I'm having problems correctly structuring the resulting json data as a dataframe. I think it's because there are multiple nested levels in the data. I tried normalizing the data, but I can only get it to work for the first nested level.
This is the code I have. Please note I've removed my API key, but you can get one quickly and easily here.

'results'
key
is a 1 elementlist
