Standard Exception Classes in 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 particula...
Python Success Stories Background The Molecular Modeling Toolkit (MMTK) is a open source Python library for molecular modeling and simulation with a focus on biomolecular systems, written in a mixture of Python and C. It provides standard techniques such as Molecular Dynamics or normal mode calculations in a ready-to-use form, but also provides a basis of low-level operations on top of which new techniques can easily be implemented. I started developing MMTK in 1996. I had some experience wit...

Python Distutils-SIG: Design Proposal Python Distutils-SIG (Prerequisites: please read the proposed interface before trying to plough through this design document; it is very much a sequel to the interface document.) Design Proposal The Distutils' point of view setup.py only has to import one module, distutils.core. This module is responsible for parsing all command-line arguments to setup.py (even though the interpretation of options is di...

Python Success Stories Background Successful information search is mission-critical. It increases worker efficiency and saves money. On an external web site, it also increases customer satisfaction and helps retain users to the web site. The average company can waste millions of dollars because its employees cannot locate and retrieve the information that is needed for their jobs. Infoseek released the original version of Ultraseek Server on March 31, 1997. It was built by wrapping Infoseek's...

Python Success Stories Background MayaVi is an open source scientific data visualization tool written entirely in Python. I started work on MayaVi in 2000. At that time, a few colleagues of mine needed to visualize their computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data but the only suitable tools available were commercial, closed source programs that were prohibitively expensive. We looked at some open source tools as alternatives. OpenDX had just been released to the public and at that time was har...
Metaclasses in Python 1.5 Metaclasses in Python 1.5 (A.k.a. The Killer Joke :-) (Postscript: reading this essay is probably not the best way to understand the metaclass hook described here. See a message posted by Vladimir Marangozov which may give a gentler introduction to the matter. You may also want to search Deja News for messages with "metaclass" in the subject posted to comp.lang.python in July and August 1998.) In previous Python releases (and still in 1.5), there ...

Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.) Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.) This is the foreword I wrote for Mark Lutz' book "Programming Python" (1st ed.), published by O'Reilly. See also my foreword to the 2nd edition. As Python's creator, I'd like to say a few words about its origins, adding a bit of personal philosophy. Over six years ago, in December 1989, I was looking for a "hobby" programming project that would keep me occupied during the we...
