• Proposed Improvements to Module Cleanup

  ...globals that are deleted before anything else in the module. Since imported module or function names generally don't begin with an underscore, this means that such objects can be guaranteed that any imported modules or functions still exist when they are deleted -- provided, of course, that the only reference to them is in the module. (This step is already implemented in 1.5 as released.) C2 deletes the remaining objects but leaves the "internal global variable" __builtins__ alone ...

• Python Patterns - An Optimization Anecdote

  ...globals; if you use a global constant in a loop, copy it to a local variable before the loop. And in Python, function names (global or built-in) are also global constants! Try to use map(), filter() or reduce() to replace an explicit for loop, but only if you can use a built-in function: map with a built-in function beats for loop, but a for loop with in-line code beats map with a lambda function! Check your algorithms for quadratic behavior. But notice that a more complex algori...

• What is Python? Executive Summary

  ...global variables, evaluation of arbitrary expressions, setting breakpoints, stepping through the code a line at a time, and so on. The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python's introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective. See also some comparisons between Python and other languages.

• Built-in Package Support in Python 1.5

  ...global module is wanted, and because the rules state that a local module (in the same package) hides a global module with the same name, the import statement must search the package's search path before looking for a (possibly already imported) global module. Since searching the package's path is a relatively expensive operation, and importing an already imported module is supposed to be cheap (in the order of one or two dictionary lookups) an optimization is in order. The dummy entry ...

• SIG for development of Python/C++ integration

  ...Globally Registered Type Coercions Goal: Provide a mechanism for global registration of type relationships between arbitrary Python and C++ types, so that, for example, a Python tuple might be automatically converted to a C++ std::vector when passed to a wrapped function accepting a std::vector argument.

• Parade of the PEPs

  ...Global Variable/Attribute Access Montanaro PEP 267 - Optimized Access to Module Namespaces - Hylton PEP 280 - Optimizing access to globals - van Rossum These three should be considered together; at most one of them can be implemented (or maybe a hybrid). I would like one of them to be implemented eventually, because I think it may have a big performance benefit: not only avoiding dict lookups for globals and builtins, but also recognizing certain builtins in the parser and generating ...
