  ...modules over the years. Python's platform independence, and the fact that it is an interpreted language, have been a major benefit to customers that have migrated from the VMS and UNIX to Windows. They have been able to port their code with no changes or at most only minor changes. Today Tribon Solutions has customers that have, by utilizing the power of Tribon Vitesse, been able to reduce design time of certain complex ship structures from four weeks to two days, while improving overall quality...

After the foot is blown up, the gun object remains alive for eternity, ready to shoot all future feet that may happen to appear. Java: You find that Microsoft and Sun have released imcompatible class libraries both implementing Gun objects. You then find that although there are plenty of feet objects implemented in the past in many other lang...

  ...modules written in other languages (e.g. C, C++, or Java), to mediate access to advanced functionality that is not easily accessible from Python directly (for example, high-speed 3-D computer graphics packages). While we don't expect students to write these extension modules, the use of such modules makes it possible to spruce up their learning experience greatly. This extensibility gives teachers an opportunity to tailor lessons to the interests of their students by providing them with g...

By writing in Python, users could recombine wrapped software components and extend or enhance standard CG applications needed for each new image production run. This let ILM staff to do exactly what a production needed at any given time, whether that meant allowing for a specific look for an entire show, or just a single CG character or element. As it turned out, even some of ILM's non-techni...

  ...modules allow us to turn very fast cycles during development. The current codebase is about 30K lines of code, written over the last year or so. I do a lot of the prototypes, mockups, etc., but Christian has implemented most of the current codebase himself. The productivity that Python provides over the "mainstream" languages is profound. We've also found the application stack to be very robust. As our flagship application, ProjectPipe is mission critical. If it proved unreliable to ou...

Refactoring the Perl code without moving to Python would have produced comparable architectural results, but Python's explicit error handling and stronger type checking helped to considerably improve the code's robustness. The current version of PyDrone uses about 20 different external binaries and scripts to predict various molecular properties. When an external program works correctly, then the output is easy to parse into the desired result...

This is the standard location for third-party or built from source frameworks, including the ActiveTcl releases. If frameworks of the proper major version are not found there, the dynamic linker looks for the same version in /System/Library/Frameworks, the location for Apple-supplied frameworks shipped with macOS.
