...One of our most consistently frustrating issues is trying to figure out whether two ticket listings are for the same real-life event (that is, without enlisting the help of our army of interns). To pick an example completely at random, Cirque du Soleil has a show running in New York called “Zarkana”. When we scour the web to find tickets for sale, mostly those tickets are identified by a title, date, time, and venue. We’ve built up a library of “fuzzy” string matching routines to help us along. And good news! We’re open sourcing it. The library is called “Fuzzywuzzy”, the code is pure python, and it depends only on the (excellent) difflib python library.

Implements a stepped state machine, i.e. a state machine which executes a single state transition at a time. Because of this, no data, e.g. state data, can be stored between executions. Instead, any such data must be stored in persistent storage between executions. This permits operation of the state machine as a CGI program in a web server. A WSGI or fastCGI or other such web server is not required.

A threaded Web graph (Power law random graph) generator written in Python. It can generate a synthetic Web graph of about one million nodes in a few minutes on a desktop machine. It implements a threaded variant of the RMAT algorithm.
