    Python Success Stories First published in Linux Journal, May 2000. Copyright 2000 Specialized Systems Consultants, Inc. All rights reserved. Introduction My first look at Python was an accident, and I didn't much like what I saw at the time. It was early 1997, and Mark Lutz's book Programming Python from O'Reilly & Associates had recently come out. O'Reilly books occasionally land on my doorstep, selected from among the new releases by some mysterious benefactor inside the organization u...

    ...Python We are very happy with the development velocity and runtime performance that we're getting with Python. Building our application atop Twisted imposed a bit of a learning curve, but well worth it since it enables ProjectPipe to be a true multi-protocol application, speaking HTTP and XMPP/Jabber. If Python had a Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler, then we would not have had occasional misgivings while worrying about hitting performance snags. Java's JIT provides much better performance than Python...

No array attributes (namely shape, flat, real and imag) for Python versions previous to 2.2 (we use the properties feature to support this for 2.2 and later; so it is only incompatible with Numeric with older versions of Python) There are more minor differences, but these are the major backward compatiblity issues at the Python level.
