  • Python Success Stories

    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...

  • Linux RPMs for Python 2.2.1

    ....3. <li>Available as source and binaries for Red Hat 7.3. </ul> <p><b>Warning:</b> These packages install as "/usr/bin/python2". This is because many of the Red Hat tools rely on "/usr/bin/python" being 1.5. For Python code which requires 2.2, they should probably change to use "/usr/bin/python2". The SRPM can be modified to build packages which install as "/usr/bin/python" -- count on things breaking if you do this. <h...

  • Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.)

    Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.) Foreword for "Programming Python" (1st ed.) This is the foreword I wrote for Mark Lutz' book "Programming Python" (1st ed.), published by O'Reilly. See also my foreword to the 2nd edition. As Python's creator, I'd like to say a few words about its origins, adding a bit of personal philosophy. Over six years ago, in December 1989, I was looking for a "hobby" programming project that would keep me occupied during the we...

  • Python Success Stories

    Python Success Stories Background MayaVi is an open source scientific data visualization tool written entirely in Python. I started work on MayaVi in 2000. At that time, a few colleagues of mine needed to visualize their computational fluid dynamics (CFD) data but the only suitable tools available were commercial, closed source programs that were prohibitively expensive. We looked at some open source tools as alternatives. OpenDX had just been released to the public and at that time was har...
