  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python is almost executable pseudo-code. Python speeds the development cycle. Since Python code is compiled to byte code on the fly by the interpreter, the development cycle is just "edit-and-execute" instead of "edit-compile-execute". In practice, this can save substantial amounts of time. Python facilitates debugging. Python's detailed tracebacks reveal the cause of problems very quickly, usually immediately upon inspection. While there are debuggers available for Python,...

  • Notes

    ...Python 2.4 beta 2? Release date: 03-NOV-2004 License The Python Software Foundation changed the license under which Python is released, to remove Python version numbers. There were no other changes to the license. So, for example, wherever the license for Python 2.3 said "Python 2.3", the new license says "Python". The intent is to make it possible to refer to the PSF license in a more durable way. For example, some people say they're confused by that the Open Source Ini...

  • Debugging Reference Count Problems

    ...python-list@cwi.nl Date: Wed, 27 May 1998 11:09:40 -0400 Mike Fletcher wrote a number of posts about debugging C code that bombs, probably because of reference count problems. His approach to debugging this problem seems typical, but I think it's not very productive, so I would like to suggest a different approach. Basically, it's often more productive to read your code carefully and reason about it than it is to use a bunch of generic debugging techniques. (Those techniques are ve...
