    ...Python-driven. To the user, it presents itself as a pure Python library. The C code in MMTK was written from scratch in the form of Python extension modules that only handle the few time-critical aspects: evaluation of interaction energies, and long-running iterative algorithms such as energy minimization and Molecular Dynamics, which run without any Python-related overhead. Extensive use is made of Numerical Python, LAPACK, and the netCDF library. MMTK provides multi-threading support for share...

  • Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.)

    ...Python as a working title for the project, being in a slightly irreverent mood (and a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus). Today, I can safely say that Python has changed my life. I have moved to a different continent. I spend my working days developing large systems in Python, when I'm not hacking on Python or answering Python-related email. There are Python T-shirts, workshops, mailing lists, a newsgroup, and now a book. Frankly, my only unfulfilled wish is to have my pictu...

    ...Python. This shows that Python is not just a toy. It is a powerful weapon for solving real problems. There was one concern raised in the beginning of the project: Would Python be fast enough to deal with the real-time demand of the production process? In the CD/DVD partitioner, Python and Linux work perfectly as long as the fastest required response time is greater than 1 millisecond. For faster applications, a real time OS may be required to provide sufficiently fast and precise response tim...

A number of alternative implementations are available as well, namely PyPy (a fast implementation of Python with a JIT compiler) IronPython (Python running on .NET) MicroPython (Python running on microcontrollers and in the web browser) Stackless Python (a branch of CPython supporting microthreads) Jython (Python running on the Java Virtual Machine) GraalPy (embeddable Python runtime for Java) Other parties have repackaged CPython. These re-packagings often inclu...

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 libraries and excellent third-party modules. Java and Jython, the Java-based implementation of the Python programming language, were both considered a...

    ...Python Python was used from the start of this project. It was a bit difficult to recruit new developers with prior experience in Python, however our experience so far has been that Python has been a very easy language to pick up. Once you learn Python, it's hard to go back to using other languages like C/C++. There were several reasons we decided to user Python as the platform of choice for WordStream. First, Python code is extremely and universally readable. Developers from any language backgro...

    ...Python The language I chose for the code generators was, of course, Python. Its simplicity and power are perfect for the job of reading data files and producing code. To simplify the integration with the C++ code, the Python generators are inserted directly into the C++ file as comments. Cog reads a text file (C++ in our case), looking for specially-marked sections of text, that it will use as generators. It executes those sections as Python code, capturing the output. The output is then splice...

    ...Python? The author had two reasons to undertake this project: To save time keeping up with IT related news. To learn Python. DevNet is a fairly simple application, so it was appropriate as a first project while learning Python. The first prototype version of DevNet used Quixote's PTL for templating and had no database. Python made development of this prototype very rapid, despite the author's initial unfamiliarity with the language. After this was completed, the rapid development nature of Py...

    ...Python script tentatively called setup.py (the fact that this name overlaps somewhat with the module description file in the Python distribution and in many large module distributions is deliberate, and may be construed as a bug or a feature). See below for arguments to setup.py and what happens when it's run. Also, nobody disagreed with my contention that the system should work on "extensions" (ie. modules written in C) or plain ol' "modules" (written in P...

    ...Python turned out to be more qualified for the job than initially expected i.e. Python turned out to be a true problem solver. At present most of the original Python code is still untouched or replaced by new Python code. The Python Successes Speed of development For us, development in Python has been proven to be much more efficient. Our developers generally finish Python based projects much quicker than comparable projects in other languages like C, C++, C# or Java. Apart from the latter, P...

    ...Python's interpreted nature was also a benefit: Code ideas can easily be tested in the Python interactive shell, and lack of a compilation phase makes for a shorter edit/test cycle. All of these factors combine to make Python a terrific alternative to C++ and Java as a general purpose programming language.
