  • Summary of "Extension Building" Session

    ...package will keep their conventional Pythonic meanings: a single .py file meant to be imported by other modules or scripts, a module written in C, and a collection of modules grouped under a directory containing an __init__.py file. I proposed distribution (or module distribution when absolute clarity is needed) as a stand-in for package, which is already taken. A module distribution contains one or more modules (including extension modules), their documentation...

  • What's new in Python 1.5 and beyond

    ...package support is somewhat simpler (no __ and __domain__) and differs in one crucial aspect: __init__.py is required, and loaded in the package's namespace instead of as a submodule. For more information, see Built-in Package Support. The new "re" module (Perl style regular expressions) is here. It is based on Philip Hazel's pcre code; the Python interfaces were put together by Andrew Kuchling. The regex module is declared obsolete. In support of the re module, a new form of string...

  • Highlights: Python 2.5

    ...packages In keeping with the theme of adding tried and true packages to the standard library, in 2.5 we've added ctypes, ElementTree, hashlib, sqlite3 and wsgiref to the standard library that ships with Python. Google's summer of code resulted in a new cProfile profiling module. This is a much more efficient version of the venerable profile.py module that's shipped with Python for many many years. GSoC also gave us a rewritten mailbox module that can both read and write mailboxes in a variety of...

Counting out stacks of discs for these packages is labor-intensive and requires several steps to accomplish: picking up an estimated number of discs from a large stack, verifying the correctness of the number of discs using a disc counter, adding or removing discs to meet the required number, and sending the disks to a packaging machine To make the packaging process cost effective, an automatic CD/DVD disc partitioner is used to carry out the above steps.
