    ...excellent language for parsing as well as operating on collections with ease (iterating, concatenating, intersecting, etc.). Last but not least, if performance ever becomes an issue, it is easy to write extensions using the Python/C API. Understand that we did evaluate other solutions, which included Ruby and Java. But our impression of Ruby was that it was too immature at the time and Java can often be unpleasant to work with. Project Results It is imperative that we provide 24/7/365 availabi...

  • Python Software Foundation: Minutes of Board of Directors Meeting (August 9, 2005)

    ...excellent work. 4   Infrastructure Committee Status Report A. Kuchling reported that PyPI was moved over to one of the new machines, and seems to be running fine. It's running under the name cheeseshop.python.org, chosen by Richard Jones. www.python.org now proxies for cheeseshop. Moving the static web service is the final piece, and is now being thought out. There was an issue with proving our identity to the SSL certificate issuing company. Kuchling said he would ask Barry ...

    ...excellent .NET implementation provided by the IronPython project, and the thriving community of discussion, support and tools. On the whole, our clients feel the same, as shown by this quote from "Credit Cooperatif", a large French retail bank who are now using Resolver One: We use Excel and VBA, but we prefer Python for its combination of simplicity and power. We were looking to better link spreadsheets with Python programming, and Resolver One seemed to be the most elegant solution ...

    ...excels in a wide range of software development tasks, including the construction of web applications, complex integrated business solutions, and large desktop applications. Python is often characterized as an agile language that promotes speedy development and includes a unit-testing framework for building more robust applications. Key features of Python include: Object orientation, modular name spaces, exceptions, and multi-threading High-level dynamic data typing and very late bi...

ERP5SyncML: Synchronized Distributed Objects Coramy's requirements for ERP5 included the need to deploy applications in its factories in Tunisia. This posed some additional challenges, since internet connectivity between Africa and Europe is not always perfect and can be very expensive. Given Coramy's modest budget ...

    ...excellent performance. Figure A: The TTT-Plan Pilot allows users to manipulate object data and links between objects Zoom in For the first tool, TTP-Plan, we created a framework in Python that let us apply Python's introspection features in order to reuse, for several different purposes, the information already present in the code. For example, the help texts present in the tool are reused to produce the reference section in the written documentation. The object model of the configuration to...

  • Comparing Python to Other Languages

    ...excellent combination. Components can be developed in Java and combined to form applications in Python; Python can also be used to prototype components until their design can be "hardened" in a Java implementation. To support this type of development, a Python implementation written in Java is under development, which allows calling Python code from Java and vice versa. In this implementation, Python source code is translated to Java bytecode (with help from a run-time library to support...

    ...excellent and the examples are easy to follow. However, the PowerPanel hardware has no hard disk and thus could not itself compile the Python interpreter's C sources. To work around this problem, the developers cross-compiled Python from another machine, producing object code for the PowerPC using a compiler running on another type of hardware. Once this was done, Python byte code produced on any machine could be run on the PowerPanel without modification; only the initial compilation of the lan...

    ...Excel, and Access), Delphi, C++, Java, C# and others. These not only hide the protocol level from the application programmer, but also provide the key to enabling security and fail-over solutions. Web services standards are still in the planning stage, and it is not at all clear which of the proposals will be accepted by standards organizations. By creating a true middle tier, we were able to hide the particular methods and protocols we chose inside of the Siena client and server, and were free ...

  • A Journey to Python

    ...excellent job offer instead. So I dropped the freelancer's life, moved to California, and here I happily live, serving as "Uber Tech Lead" for that deep-infrastructure software we call "Production Systems", where Python plays a crucial role (though not an exclusive one, as C++ is also important here). I was pleasantly surprised to find that working at Google, even in such a fascinatigly challenging position as Uber Tech Lead is, allows enough "work-life balance" (o...

    ...excellent control in the application domain for which they were intended, and (almost) no freedom in unanticipated areas. For example, HTML has no inherent ability for conditional inclusion of text, or variable expansion. (The fact that such features have been added as extensions to HTML proves the point.) Procedural languages, on the other hand, usually aren't as good in any particular domain (e.g. it takes a lot more work to write a program in a procedural language to format a parag...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...excellent candidate for implementing our enterprise system, but it was initially passed over in favor of building upon the existing (vast) code base we already had in PHP. At that time, we felt that PHP could be used successfully in CORE by introducing a better structured system design. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to overcome our other problems with PHP, so we re-evaluated our situation. The first alpha version of Python 2.2 had recently been released, and we decided to begin work on a new...

    ...excellent profile module can quickly show the bottleneck in your code. if you're considering different versions of an algorithm, test it in a tight loop using the time.clock() function. By the way, here's the timing function that I used. it calls a function f n*10 times with argument a, and prints the function name followed by the time it took, rounded to milliseconds. The 10 repeated calls are done to minimize the loop overhead of the timing function itself. You could go ...
