  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python for an implementation language has proven to be good choice. Python is currently used for all application logic in the Timesheet application. This includes all code between the initial Apache dispatch, where mod_python is employed to expedite interpreter instantiation, though the application logic, and down to the point of call out to the database transport layer. Timesheet uses not only the Python standard library but also several independently developed open source Python subsystems, su...

    ...Python itself and its C-API, I am very excited about the things to come and what awaits for the Python Language and its community :) Pablo Galindo Salgado, Python Core Developer Community trainings A huge turning point in my career was a Python workshop. I programmed a bit as a kid, and took a single CS class in college, and tried to poke along doing some self-study so I could get better. And then I attended a Boston Python Workshop for Women And Their Friends http://bostonpythonworkshop.com/...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python was discovered quite early when a member of the development team read about Python in a computer magazine. After some initial experimentation there were really no other contenders. Python had it all. It was a beautiful programming language that was extensible, embeddable, platform independent, and had no license cost. When it came to incorporate Python into the Tribon software, we found the integration to be quite easy and problem-free, and it was achieved with very little effort. The res...

  • Python Distutils-SIG: Proposed User Interface

    Python Distutils-SIG: Proposed User Interface Python Distutils-SIG Proposed User Interface In addition to identifying the common tasks and division of labour involved in developing, distributing, and installing Python modules, the "Extension Building Considered Painful" Developer's Day Session also came up with a proposed user interface. The core idea of the interface is that the module developer would provide a small Python script, called setup.py ...

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

    ...interpreter for the new scripting language I had been thinking about lately: a descendant of ABC that would appeal to Unix/C hackers. I chose Python as a working title for the project, being in a slightly irreverent mood (and a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus). Today, I can safely say that Python has changed my life. I have moved to a different continent. I spend my working days developing large systems in Python, when I'm not hacking on Python or answering Python-related e...

  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python - one stop shopping development plus platform independence I used Python before and it seemed to have the potential to do all the required coding and was a programming language that I enjoyed using. I was not entirely confident about some parts of the task, especially building a graphical user interface, but decided to face my fears, trusting to Python's maturity, powerful libraries, and third-party support. The SPE editor together with Python's interpreted nature proved especially valua...
