  • EDU-SIG: Python in Education

    ...Python 2 or Python 3 ? Several years ago, a new version of Python (3) was introduced. This new version has some small but significant changes from the previous one. The most visible change for beginners is that print which used to be a Python keyword >>> print "Hello World!" # for Python 2 is now a function: >>> print("Hello World!") # for Python 3 As a result of the changes, programs written for Python 2 are likely to be incompatible with Python 3...

  • Notes

    ...Python 2.4 beta 2? Release date: 03-NOV-2004 License The Python Software Foundation changed the license under which Python is released, to remove Python version numbers. There were no other changes to the license. So, for example, wherever the license for Python 2.3 said "Python 2.3", the new license says "Python". The intent is to make it possible to refer to the PSF license in a more durable way. For example, some people say they're confused by that the Open Source Ini...

  • Standard Exception Classes in Python 1.5

    ...Python 1.5 Standard Exception Classes in Python 1.5 (updated for Python 1.5.2 -baw) User-defined Python exceptions can be either strings or Python classes. Since classes have many nice properties when used as exceptions, it is desirable to migrate to a situation where classes are used exclusively. Prior to Python 1.5 alpha 4, Python's standard exceptions (IOError, TypeError, etc.) were defined as strings. Changing these to classes posed some particularly nasty backward compatibil...
