Python : Event-Driven Paradigm

[Kusanagi]

Were you looking for more specific features?

Parallel Processing. 

Grant, 
    
        It looks like I have a lot more studying to do, all of the information that I have seems to be screwed up. I will look at event
loops in Python to see if that answers my question. I was just looking at the event-driven programming page on wikipedia and it mentioned that TCL had event driven programming built in, go figure and it did not mention python at all. I have made a lot of assumptions, and you know the old saying that assumptions are the mother of all fu**ups. Well I am going to get back to it, interest thing just occurred though. I have a program that actually runs faster with the more user-defined functions called than with less, I am trying to track down the reason why. I am ecstatic! I am getting into parallel processing because of a graphics project that I am researching and I have to stay with Python, because I don't want to spend a year recoding what others have already completed and tweaked to max efficiency. What a vicious circle I am caught up in. 

As always thanks for the response E-mail. I have not even checked out the Google groups yet, but I will very soon. 

                - Steven.

  This is weird, but your post didn't show up on Google Groups; looks like it did on python list.  I was going to let you know that you can just post to python list, and if I have anything worthwhile to say I'll put it up there, but I always check through google groups.

   

  Anyway, I don't really have much worthwhile to say on this question, but I think the general response on python-list would be that it isn't too hard to write a basic event loop with stock python; were you looking for more specific features?

  Hi All, 

   

      I have been looking through wikipedia at the Event-Driven Page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event-driven_programming

  and I noticed that it mentions that TCL has event driven programming built in. I also looked over the Python 3000 proposals and I did not notice any mention of future versions of python that are going to be changed to include this awesome feature. 

   

      I currently use the Twisted framework in various ways and I was just curious to know if the event-driven paradigm is going to be implemented without the use of 3rd party frameworks. i.e. Twisted. in the future. 

   

      If this question has already been asked and answered then please accept my apology. 

   

   

      - Steven.
