    ...GUI. The user is free to insert any Python of their own devising, to be executed before, during or after the evaluation of the spreadsheet cell values. Figure 3. The code pane within the Resolver One application. Zoom in So the spreadsheet, with all its data, expressions and user-customised functions and algorithms, becomes a single, executable Python script. The GUI and the code are two interchangeable views of the same underlying mathematical model - editing one automatically updates the ot...

    ...GUI application used to create a domain-specific XML editor that allows nontechnical users to edit LoveIntros' FAQ files. This was written using PythonCard, a rapid GUI development tool based on the wxPython GUI framework. Inspired by Apple's HyperCard, PythonCard was impressive in its ability to quickly and easily create a responsive cross-platform GUI. Implemented in Python The LoveIntros implementors chose Python for its expressive, easy-to-maintain nature and its rich set of built-in libra...

    ...GUI and search engine in just 400 lines of code. Flow past a cylindrical post, showing configuration dialog, VTK pipeline, and VTK documentation browser. Data courtesy of NASA. Zoom in Excellent support for introspection, coupled with a comprehensive standard library, made it easy to write data-driven code like the vtkPipeline browser. This automatically generates a GUI at runtime that displays the VTK graphics pipeline. It also generates a GUI configuration dialog for any VTK object by par...

SWIG was used to quickly make these callable from Python code. The GUI components of the CD/DVD partitioner were built using Tkinter, which provides a simple but very reliable GUI development toolkit. cx_Freeze was used to package up the Python control software into an executable. At the hardware level, a JUKI-740E (K6 400MHz CPU and 64M...

How eBukal is used to monitor water conditions in a basement Zoom in I knew how to write command line scripts and PHP to do the server coding and used Perl for CGIs and Visual Basic for the GUI, but I wanted to do it better this time. I wanted to do it right. 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...

    ...GUIs The Tk GUI library is included with most binary distributions of Python. Some toolkits that are usable on several platforms are available separately: wxWidgets Kivy, for writing multitouch applications. Qt via pyqt or pyside Platform-specific toolkits are also available: GTK+ Microsoft Foundation Classes through the win32 extensions Software Development Python is often used as a support language for software developers, for build control and management, testing, and in many other ways...

  • Comparing Python to Other Languages

    ...GUI component library. Tcl 8.0 addresses the speed issuse by providing a bytecode compiler with limited data type support, and adds namespaces. However, it is still a much more cumbersome programming language. Smalltalk Perhaps the biggest difference between Python and Smalltalk is Python's more "mainstream" syntax, which gives it a leg up on programmer training. Like Smalltalk, Python has dynamic typing and binding, and everything in Python is an object. However, Python distingu...

    ...GUI elements like buttons and menus looked fairly good. I put the book back on the shelf, making a mental note that I should code some kind of small GUI-centered project in Python sometime, just to make sure I really understood the language. But I didn't believe what I'd seen would ever compete effectively with Perl. Perl Wears Thin A lot of other things conspired to keep that note way down on my priority list for many months. The rest of 1997 was eventful for me; it was, among other things, t...

  • Python Software Foundation: Press Release 13-Feb-2003

    ...Guido van Rossum as a language that could be used to teach the most advanced concepts of programming to non-programmers. Over the past decade, Python has grown world-wide into a programming language that is used in mission-critical applications by major players such as Google, Philips, Nasa, AstraZeneca, Industrial Light and Magic, and Rackspace. Python is also used extensively in universities and by many research groups. Python stresses readability, simplicity and elegance. Says van Ro...

    ...GUI that runs on PHP in Apache and IIS. Overview of the Armadillo Spam Filtering Process Zoom in Why Python? We did consider C# since "Mono" supports it and the guys here were already well-versed in C# development on Windows. However, we lacked confidence that code developed on Windows would work equally well on Mono, and all development would need to actively avoid API that would be missing on Mono. The differences in stability and feature set of the IDEs on Windows and Linux was...

    ...GUI that provides the end-user search box, results pages, and all administrative functions. Python was chosen for several reasons: Python (like Java) is a modern language with objects, modules, threads, exceptions, and automatic memory management. At the time, both C and C++ were rejected as missing at least some of these features. The solution needed to be multi-threaded. Neither Perl nor Java was chosen as the solution at the time. Perl was not considered to be as robust. Java did not allow c...

We only had to write, in Python, our custom RPC protocol, because XML-RPC (and it's Python implementation) proved to be too slow and processor-intensive. Scalability was an issue that we solved at design time, but Python let us create programming constructs like the transparent distributed RPC system and extensible API system. In regard to stability, we think that Python's great exception handling mechanism gave us an enormous advantage...
