Like Perl and Ruby, Python includes the standard libraries that were required by this project. Python was chosen for its readability and ease of use. Implementation Most of the brutal load was handled by the Postfix mail system. All requests were received by email, which is asynchronous and thus avoids the above-mentioned limitations of synchronous processing. Suzanne was in ...

  • Highlights: Python 2.4

    ...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/python2.4/pdb.py New or upgraded built-ins built-in sets - th...

    ...Python generator application that would drive a set of front end translators, a content inserter, and a post-processing formatter to generate the reports. Python had recently been chosen as our department's successor language for automated test scripts. I noticed Python's potential beyond use for testing, so I obtained permission from my manager to use it for this task. The front end translators in this application harvest content (pictures, tables, paragraphs) from various data sources and pla...
