Looking ahead towards more CG-intensive films, ILM staff began to search for ways to control an increasingly complex and compute-intensive production process. It was around this time that Python version 1.4 came out, and Python was coming into its own as a powerful yet simple language that could be used to replace Unix shell scripting. Py...

When running Cog, it may need to change files that the developer has not edited yet. It can execute a shell command to check out files that are read-only.

By using it on a number of projects, we have come to understand that Python's dynamic nature, support for high-level data structures, and easy object-orientation all lower the barrier to writing well-structured reusable code in less time. The language's clear and simple syntax helps to reveal the sense (or otherwise!) of our code. This makes it easier to understand and reason about code during development and - m...

Any individual creation has its ideosyncracies, and occasionally its creator has to justify these. Perhaps Python's most controversial feature is its use of indentation for statement grouping, which derives directly from ABC. It is one of the language's features that is dearest to my heart. It makes Python code more readable in two ways. First, ...
