  • SIG on Graphical User Interfaces for Python

    ...Python SIG on Graphical User Interfaces for Python This sig has been retired. New postings to the mailing list will be rejected, but the archives of the old list are still available for perusal. See the SIGs home page for info about active and inactive lists. Over a dozen graphical user-interface Python modules have been developed. While this speaks to the power of Python's extension capabilities, there is significant interest in defining a commonly available GUI system...

    ...Python was just as portable as Java and a much easier to learn and use language. I'd also read the Python tutorial, seen various Python programs and liked the language very much for its simplicity, object oriented nature, dynamic data typing, and large standard library. Starting with a few simple Python scripts using VTK, I was able to get my colleagues up and running fairly quickly with a few custom CFD visualization scripts. At this time I was still learning Python and Tkinter (the GUI toolki...

    ...GUI application used to create a domain-specific XML editor that allows nontechnical users to edit LoveIntros' FAQ files. This was written using PythonCard, a rapid GUI development tool based on the wxPython GUI framework. Inspired by Apple's HyperCard, PythonCard was impressive in its ability to quickly and easily create a responsive cross-platform GUI. Implemented in Python The LoveIntros implementors chose Python for its expressive, easy-to-maintain nature and its rich set of built-in libra...

    ...GUI) components in the System.Windows.Forms module of the .NET class libraries themselves. Python was regarded fondly by our founders, but could not directly fulfil the requirement for .NET interoperability. Python for .NET was considered, allowing Python developers to call .NET assemblies, but in the end this lost out to IronPython, a reimplementation of Python as a .NET language, which runs directly on the Common Language Runtime (CLR). At the time, IronPython felt like a somewhat risky propos...

SWIG was used to quickly make these callable from Python code. The GUI components of the CD/DVD partitioner were built using Tkinter, which provides a simple but very reliable GUI development toolkit. cx_Freeze was used to package up the Python control software into an executable. At the hardware level, a JUKI-740E (K6 400MHz CPU and 64M...

Web and Internet Development Python offers many choices for web development: Frameworks such as Django and Pyramid. Micro-frameworks such as Flask and Bottle.

  • Comparing Python to Other Languages

    ...Python; Python can also be used to prototype components until their design can be "hardened" in a Java implementation. To support this type of development, a Python implementation written in Java is under development, which allows calling Python code from Java and vice versa. In this implementation, Python source code is translated to Java bytecode (with help from a run-time library to support Python's dynamic semantics). Javascript Python's "object-based" subset is roughly equivalen...

It was at this point I remembered the bit I had set more than six months earlier. This could be an opportunity to get some hands-on experience with Python. Of course, this brought me face to face once again with Python's pons asinorum, the significance of whitespace. This time, however, I charged ahead and roughed out some code for a handful of sample GUI elements. Oddly enough, Pytho...

    ...Python-scripted HTML. Some of the modules, such as the search spider, GUI, and HTTP server, were written in Python. For performance reasons, others, such as the query engine, indexer, and HTML parser, use the Python/C API to incorporate functionality written in C. The C-based search engine core was also wrapped as a Python extension module. Some C++ is used in the interfaces to key third party technologies. Python's flexibility in this regard gave us a wide degree of flexibility in integration. ...

    ...Python. At the time of our investigation, Python had reached version 2.5, and a what we felt was a credible level of maturity. While not a "main-stream" choice, Python was attractive because of its cross-platform abilities and the productivity I felt the language could bring to the team. Some of my team members were skeptical and preferred the tried-and-true power of C/C++ for systems programming. We decided that those members would work on the web GUI for configuration of the product,...

Python even uses Tk, the Tcl GUI toolkit, for a de-facto standard portable GUI toolkit. Unlike Tcl, however, Python supports object-oriented programming. Python programmers can create classes, use multiple inheritance, define methods, overload operators, and so on. Python's Strengths Syntactically, Python code looks like executable pseudo cod...

    ...Python? Python was not our first choice as the main programming language it was a coincidence. When we started our project we was very proficient in Perl and completely unaware of Python: so we chose Perl. We discovered Python when we decided that we had to substitute the PerlTK user interface with a Web-based one. We found Zope, and after some attempts to integrate Perl with Zope, we switched to Python. To make a log story short, at the end we dropped Zope but kept using Python (and rewrote the...
