• Python Distutils-SIG: Proposed User Interface

  ...important to specify it somewhere.) Once the setup.py script is written, developers, packagers, and installers alike will use it to carry out all of their tasks that can be automated (i.e. everything except actually writing the modules, documentation, and test suite). This will be done by running setup.py with a mandatory "command" argument corresponding to the task to be accomplished. (By sheer coincidence, many of these commands will look a lot li...

  ...important role. Perl Python and Perl come from a similar background (Unix scripting, which both have long outgrown), and sport many similar features, but have a different philosophy.

  ...imports the string module, this change is obviously not going to happen overnight. The first likely opportunity to remove the string module will be at the introduction of Python 3000; and even then there will probably be a string module in the backwards compatibility library for use with old code. Python 3000?! Yes, that's the nickname for the next generation of the Python interpreter. The name may be considered a pun on Windows 2000, or a reference to Mystery Science Theatre 3000, a...

• Python Success Stories

  ...important measure of effort in coding is the frequency with which you write something that doesn't actually match your mental representation of the problem, and have to backtrack on realizing that what you just typed won't actually tell the language to do what you're thinking. An important measure of good language design is how rapidly the percentage of missteps of this kind falls as you gain experience with the language. When you're writing working code nearly as fast as you can type and your m...
