Hi All,


>the files  :

http://www.geofemengineering.it/data/qt_proc.py 

http://www.geofemengineering.it/data/wx_proc.py

are 2 examples extracted from a book,
they do the same things but the pyqt example give me :


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "qt_proc.py", line 102, in <module>
    widget = CPUMonitor() 
  File "qt_proc.py", line 43, in __init__
    self.timerEvent(None)
  File "qt_proc.py", line 79, in timerEvent
    result = self.get_cpu_usage()
  File "qt_proc.py", line 75, in get_cpu_usage
    return [(100.0*dt)/(total) for dt in delta]
ZeroDivisionError: float division


tring to add some prints in the code : 


	def prepare_cpu_usage(self): 
		"""helper function to return CPU usage info"""
		# get the CPU times using psutil module 
		t = p.cpu_times()
		print 't', t
		# return only the values we're interested in 
		if hasattr(t, 'nice'):
			return [t.user, t.nice, t.system, t.idle] 
		else:
			# special case for Windows, without 'nice' value
			return [t.user, 0, t.system, t.idle] 
	def get_cpu_usage(self):
		"""Compute CPU usage comparing previous and current measurements"""
		# take the current CPU usage information 
		now = self.prepare_cpu_usage() 
		print now
		# compute delta between current and previous measurements
		delta = [now[i] - self.before[i] for i in range(len(now))] 
		for i in range(len(now)):
			print now[i]
			print self.before[i]
		# compute the total (needed for percentages calculation) 
		total = sum(delta) 
		print total
		print delta
		# save the current measurement to before object 
		self.before = now
		# return the percentage of CPU usage for our 4 categories 
		return [(100.0*dt)/(total) for dt in delta]



i can see it subtract 2 identical values :

t system=1e-06; idle=4294.967295; user=2.097488; nice=0.0       #   <- t ( print 't', t )
t system=1e-06; idle=4294.967295; user=2.097488; nice=0.0
[2.0974879999999998, 0.0, 9.9999999999999995e-07, 4294.9672950000004]   #  <- now ( print now )
2.097488               #                                                 
2.097488               #
0.0                    #    for i in range(len(now)):
0.0                    #        print now[i]
1e-06                  #        print self.before[i]
1e-06                  #
4294.967295            #
4294.967295            #
0.0                    #    print total
[0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0]   #    print delta


have you any clue on what's worng ?

i'm using pyqt snapshot build in 64 bit mode on mac osx snow leopard.
sip-snapshot-4.10.1-b514b2f196b8 + PyQt-mac-gpl-snapshot-4.7.1-08c09018a2d5


thanks for any help!

Massimo.
