... unwilling to show at least some effort ...
The sad and strange thing to me is that finddata quite clearly has shown an enormous amount of effort, alas almost entirely misdirected toward creating post after redundant post rather than, as you pointed out, toward doing at least a little enlightening reading and experimentation on his or her own. Were it not for the sheer volume of these posts, I'd be inclined to suspect an elaborate trolling exploit. (Maybe it's a group effort. A cabal of diabolic Pythonistas...?)
Update: Let me join you in expressing gratitude to and admiration for all those who have persevered in giving such excellent answers with such little apparent result.

There are deeply rooted cultural differences in approaching education in western societies and India.
Unfortunately I can't provide a link for it, but an Indian friend explained to me that historically constantly begging a "guru" to share his wisdom was more important than independent efforts.
You have to understand this cultural background (edit: and how the mass IT industry there hires people by quantity).

Oh of course I also asked my friend how to best handle these kind of persons. His answer was:
"Ignore them, they will have no shame wasting your time."

And of course if the attitude to ignore those people is prevalent, you start to understand how this tactic of constant devote begging formed shape. =)

I would have been supprised if there were no significant differences.

But from my very little knowledge - or perhaps better titled as a little collection of (positive and negative) prejudices - I would assume that was for religious affairs only, perhaps a way to enlightment, or how ever you want to name it. But not for - let's say - daily business.
Anyway, shouldn't a guru shouting "stop pissing on my carpet" stop the begging one to piss on the carpet?
(Admitted, I see a little chance of a guru not being recognised as a guru. But then again, potty training ...)
You have to understand this cultural background (edit: and how the mass IT industry there hires people by quantity).
Regarding the IT industry, I was told about a failed IT outsourcing project from a friend who tried to manage that project. I trust his judgement, and according to him, it was not only a cultural "impedance mismatch". It was also a problem of failed education. "His" IT workers had been conditioned (I refuse to call that learned) to learn a ridiculously big 1-by-1 mapping of standard problems and standard solutions by heart, but lacked any understanding of what they were doing. Something like "press button A when the green light is lit, press button B when the red light is lit", multiplied by 1000. The problem with the project was that it required thinking outside the 1000 standard solutions. What should an indian worker bee do when suddenly a new light appears that - to make things worse - also emits a sound? At that point, the workers resorted to what looked like the most similar standard problem and mindlessly applied the conditioned standard solution. Of course, that could simply not work.
Oh of course I also asked my friend how to best handle these kind of persons. His answer was:
"Ignore them, they will have no shame wasting your time."
Wise words.
And of course if the attitude to ignore those people is prevalent, you start to understand how this tactic of constant devote begging formed shape.
Yes, of course.
Still, it's hard for me to work with people who actively refuse to use their brain. I'm kind of allergic to them, no matter which culture they come from.

Hi AnomalousMonk, you've been LanXed, your mind poisoned, strike that stupid word from your vocabulary you'll be much happier and you won't see trolls everywhere and real trolls (of which you havent seen on perlmonks) wont bother you

"I'm very impressed how ignorant, unwilling to learn, unwilling to read, unwilling to show at least some effort, and unwilling to respect the rules you are..."
I think you intended to post this in response to a post by finddata, not that I think it'd have much impact ;)
