    ...shell and, more prominently, a Karel the Robot clone that is programmable using Python syntax, using either procedural commands [e.g. move()] or an object-oriented approach [e.g. robot.move()]. It includes approximately 40 lessons. A new web-based version, Reeborg's World, has more tutorials than those available with the desktop version. Python's turtle module is not a learning environment as such, but it has been completely revamped for Python 2.6 and above and is worth checking out. Examples ...

The system is ready for internationalization; multiple languages are supported and every user can use its preferred language. Moreov...

  • Built-in Package Support in Python 1.5

    ...shell environment variable. In practice, both solutions quickly cause chaos. Dedicated Directories In Python 1.5, a convention has been established that should prevent chaos, by giving the system administrator more control. First of all, two extra directories are added to the end of the default search path (four if the install prefix and exec_prefix differ). These are relative to the install prefix (which defaults to /usr/local): $prefix/lib/python1.5/site-packages $prefi...

    ...shell code can't be executed because a bogus URL was passed in. The Python compiler package was updated to correctly calculate stack depth in some cases. This was affecting Zope Python Scripts rather badly. Largefile support was added (but not on by default, you'll need to follow the instructions in the documentation of the posix module). SF bug #443120: Fix a cgi.py denial-of-service attack, socketmodule's SSL_read and SSL_write now release the global interpreter lock. threading uses the PTHREA...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...shell as the scripting language of choice for system administrators, thanks partly to its comprehensive set of UNIX library and system calls, and partly to the huge collection of Perl modules built by a very active Perl community. The language is commonly estimated to be the CGI language behind about 85% of the "live" content on the Net. Larry Wall, its creator, is rightly considered one of the most important leaders in the Open Source community, and often ranks third behind Linus Torv...

Tools/Demos New script combinerefs.py helps analyze new PYTHONDUMPREFS output. See the module docstring for details. Build Fix problem building on OSF1 because the compiler only accepted preprocessor directives that start in column 1. (SF bug #691793.) C API Added PyGC_Collect(), equivalent to calling gc.collect(). PyThreadState_GetDict() was ch...

    ...shell scripts in Python. YODA: Code! Yes. A programmer's strength flows from code maintainability. But beware of Perl. Terse syntax... more than one way to do it... default variables. The dark side of code maintainability are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you when code you write. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will. LUKE: Is Perl better than Python? YODA: No... no... no. Quicker, ...

    ...shells (like IDLE). This should "just work" by magic, but read Michael Hudson's "Future statements in simulated shells" PEP 264 for full details: <http://python.sf.net/peps/pep-0264.html>. The type/class unification (PEP 252-253) was integrated into the trunk and is not so tentative any more (the exact specification of some features is still tentative). A lot of work has done on fixing bugs and adding robustness and features (performance still has to come a long way)...
