[Python学习25] 关于函数更多的
在这一章的学习中，做了一些函数和变量的练习。并不是直接运行脚本，而是在脚本中定义了一些函数，把他们导入到Python中通过执行函数的方式运行。先看代码：
def break_words(stuff):
"""This function will break up words for us."""
words = stuff.split(' ')
return words
def sort_words(words):
"""Sorts the words."""
return sorted(words)
def print_first_word(words):
"""Prints the first word after popping it off."""
word = words.pop(0)
print word
def print_last_word(words):
"""Prints the last word after popping it off."""
word = words.pop(-1)
print word
def sort_sentence(sentence):
"""Takes in a full sentence and returns the sorted words."""
words = break_words(sentence)
return sort_words(words)
def print_first_and_last(sentence):
"""Prints the first and last words of the sentence."""
words = break_words(sentence)
print_first_word(words)
print_last_word(words)
def print_first_and_last_sorted(sentence):
"""Sorts the words then prints the first and last one."""
words = sort_sentence(sentence)
print_first_word(words)
print_last_word(words)可以看到这个程序中只定义了函数，并没有调用函数并打印出来。我们需要使用import的方法把整个程序导入到python中，然后直接在python中使用程序中的各种功能。 导入函数的方法有两种：import no25 或 from no25 import * (我写的脚本名称叫no25.py） 下面是执行结果：

>>> short = break_words(sentence)

>>> print_first_word(short)

good!
>>> sorted_sentence = sort_sentence(sentence)
>>> short

>>> sorted_words = sort_sentence(sentence)
>>> sorted_words
['All', 'good!', 'things', 'very', 'was']
>>> print_first_and_last(sentence)
All
good!
>>> print_first_and_last_sorted(sentence)
All
was
>>> 下面是在Python中执行时遇到的一些错误：
错误1：split方法中引号里没有添加空格。 'split'方法中必须指定一个分隔符，如果引号中没有任何内容，就会提示“语法错误”，"ValueError: empty separator"。 正确用法：使用split(' ')，分隔符，默认为所有的空字符，包括空格、换行(\n)、制表符(\t)等。
Bing到这个网页，在StackOverflow上有人有同样的问题。 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20826788/str-split-giving-me-valueerror-empty-separator-for-a-sentence-in-the-for

具体错误提示如下：

>>> import os
>>> import sys
>>> import no25
>>> s = "There are many books."
>>> sen = no25.break_words(s)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "no25.py", line 4, in break_words
words = stuff.split('')
ValueError: empty separator错误2：调用函数打错字导致python提示名称未定义。 我在程序中第46行下面调用了一个函数print_first_words()，但是在程序里并没有定义这个函数，而是有print_first_word()这个函数，所以是手误打错了，python的错误提示"NameError: …… is not defined"，可以帮助我们快速定位问题。
>>> no25.print_first_and_last(sentence)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "no25.py", line 46, in print_first_and_last
print_first_words(words)
NameError: global name 'print_first_words' is not defined错误3：当前目录没有no25.py脚本，我的脚本放在Desktop下，而新开的mac Command Line的目录为当前用户的Home目录。 可以看到python提示"No module named no25"，说明python在库中找不到叫no25的模块，仔细观察一下，发现我使用的是相对路径，当前目录是～，也就是user用户的家目录，所以找不到。
