AttributeError on copy() #5

Closed MaxvandenBoom closed 6 years ago

MaxvandenBoom commented 6 years ago

I tried to use neuropythy by first installing pip install neuropythy and then importing import neuropythy as ny

Here I encountered an issue, stating:

  File "/home/max/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/neuropythy/freesurfer/core.py", line 73, in add_subject_path
    fsp0 = fsp.copy()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'copy'

Upon inspection of 'core.py' I found the line mentioned: fsp0 = fsp.copy(). The variable that was created on this line is not used anywhere. I commented out this line, after which the import works, including the 'benson14_retinotopy' functionality which broke before on the import.

There is another occurance of the copy attribute in the core.py file: sd = fsp.copy() but in my scenario it does not seem to reach that line.

Although it is working for me, others might encounter this issue.

Hi there, thanks for the bug report. Huh--apparently Python lists don't have a copy method prior to 3.3. I just pushed a bug fix to github and once the tests pass I'll push it to PyPI. It's possible that a similar error will come up other places in the code (though I can't recall any, and I couldn't find any in a quick search). Please file another report if so!
