  • Built-in Package Support in Python 1.5

    ...imported (possibly running its initialization code, __init__.py) and then imports whatever names are defined in the package. This includes any names defined (and submodules explicitly loaded) by __init__.py. It also includes any submodules of the package that were explicitly loaded by previous import statements, e.g. import Sound.Effects.echo import Sound.Effects.surround from Sound.Effects import * In this example, the echo and surround modules are imported in the curren...

  • Proposed Improvements to Module Cleanup

    ...imported by other modules, it would be deleted first by step M4 anyway, but if it is imported elsewhere, deleting __main__ is a plausible way to break a tie. M4 is an explicit garbage collection loop -- it deletes all those modules which are referenced by no other modules, only by the table of modules (sys.modules) itself. It may not delete all modules, however, when there are mutual imports; the remaining steps take care of those. M5 is needed to take care of mutually recursive impo...

  • Import Sig

    Import Sig Introduction PEP 382 (namespace packages) and to perform any additional import.c and importlib refactoring that would be useful to this cause. The intent is that this SIG will be re-retired after Python 3.3 is released.

  • Highlights: Python 2.4

    ...import cleanup - when a module import failed, versions of Python prior to 2.4a2 would leave a broken module in sys.modules - subsequent attempts to import the failing module would silently succeed, but use the broken module object. The import machinery now removes the failing module from sys.modules if the import fails. The -m command line option - python -m modulename will find a module in the standard library, and invoke it. For example, python -m pdb is equivalent to python /usr/lib/python...

  • Python Distutils-SIG: Design Proposal

    ...import one module, distutils.core. This module is responsible for parsing all command-line arguments to setup.py (even though the interpretation of options is distributed across the various Distutils commands, and possibly the client setup.py). It also takes care of receiving control from setup.py, and passing it as appropriate to Distutils commands. Most importantly, distutils.core defines the Distribution class, which is the heart and soul of the ...

    ...important design criteria. Algorithms, energy terms, and specializations of the data types can be added without having to modify the MMTK code. The design of MMTK as a library, rather than a closed program, is essential for many applications. An important aspect of biomolecular simulations is visualization. MMTK delegates this task to external tools. Two visualization programs, VMD and PyMOL, are particularly well integrated. Most MMTK users access the library from simple Python scripts, but MMT...

Automobiles employ multiple embedded systems, some of which communicate with each other. Embedded systems also operate many household appliances. Such systems are likewise very important in industry, where they form a crucial element of many instruments and tools. The catalyst for the future expansion of embedded systems is the rapid advance of network te...
