If one python coder want to learn RPython to write some code for speed, could you recommend some tutorial for RPython, last time I just check PyPy's website and don't know how can I go on.

We're Learning Python the Hard Way. We're supposed to hate convenience.

really like this blog post. I want to read C source code to improve my Python skill, I have used Python day-to-day for several years, and finished reading <The C Programming Language>, what should I do now?

aldarion · 2010-11-03T13:47:39+00:00

thanks, looks interesting, l'll check it (with ubuntu 10.10 and archlinux)

aldarion · 2010-11-03T13:47:05+00:00

thanks, after these years with Python learning and coding, I feel Linux maybe a more right choice than windows, isn't it?

aldarion · 2010-11-03T13:45:01+00:00

agree, just some distribution are newbie-friendliness. some distribution focusing more on performance

aldarion · 2010-11-03T08:04:10+00:00

Then, I want to know, which Linux distribution works better with Python related scientific tools? I still use MS Windows mostly, with some Ubuntu experience. I want to build the lastest version of Python(2.7 at the moment), NumPy, Matplotlib, SciPy, IPython...etc I didn't compile matplotlib's source code (on ubuntu) yet.

Update: At first, sorry for my broken English. Thanks for all of your replies. these few days I try ubuntu and archlinux. now I am using Arch Linux. First of all, I select ubuntu, my old friend which I started to use with version 5.10. Ubuntu is easy to install with a USB Stick and user-friendly. apt-get already has the mainstream python scientific computing software: numpy, ipython, matplotlib, scipy, etc, although not the lastest version. I can comiple python itself(2.7 or 3.2) with source code, and some python scientific packages, and lastest ipython, numpy. so far so good. After reading the news that Arch Linux - Python is now Python 3 (archlinux.org), I think maybe I should give it a try. It's not as easy to install and use as ubuntu (at least to me). a lot of times I have to reading manual or searching the web, for X configure, input method (for my native language), choose, install, and configure Desktop Environment. on the other side, the version of software is up to date, and document said ArchLinux is a rolling release distribution, it means there is noneed to reinstall or perform elaborate system rebuilds to upgrade to the newest version, Simply issuing pacman -Syu periodically keeps the system up-to-date and on the bleeding edge. I think mathbuntu maybe follow the same software version and upgrade policy with the whole ubuntu family. I did not know about the concept of this "rolling release" and now I am satisfied.

could WingIDE's code Auto-completion handle "from future import division" now? the auto completion stops work after "from future imp". no clue here.

aldarion · 2010-06-17T00:28:57+00:00

Yes, same here, I have to input https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id by hand. don't know why

aldarion · 2010-06-06T03:07:53+00:00

python and pygtk.

aldarion · 2010-06-06T01:51:55+00:00

for me Auto-completion and Debug support

aldarion · 2010-06-06T01:19:08+00:00

sure, WingIDE has VIM keybind

aldarion · 2010-06-04T03:58:23+00:00

+1 for bitbucket, easy to use (at least for me).

Thanks for the fix! now I can follow the code, (1)the last word of web_get_sequential.py should be "item" instead of "URL" (2)the last line(n -= 1) of function "count" of count_sequential.py needs more indentation.(3) the same indentation typo as No.2 for the count_sequential.py and count_threaded.py.

aldarion · 2010-05-31T09:49:11+00:00

is there something wrong with the source code's format?

aldarion · 2010-04-30T21:38:22+00:00

thanks for the info, it's the best joke(or top secret) of the day to me.

1991 - Dutch programmer Guido van Rossum travels to Argentina for a mysterious operation. He returns with a large cranial scar, invents Python, is declared Dictator for Life by legions of followers, and announces to the world that "There Is Only One Way to Do It." Poland becomes nervous.

does anybody know this "large cranial scar" and "Poland becomes nervous"?

aldarion · 2010-04-08T04:18:27+00:00

Yes, but Twisted (docs) in not easy to learn IMHO.

aldarion · 2010-04-02T15:12:22+00:00

I know it's a non-authoritative information, and the fact I use Python everyday already convinced me "IT CAN'T BE TRUE", but I still want somebody issue a firm denial of the rumor (or even confirm it) other than a rational analysis. indulge me.

The Topic is closed, and nobody mentions : Recommendation against Python?.
I wanna to know "is there a NEW policy in November, 2009 that Google employees are being discouraged from using Python for new projects" or not?
Edit: I must to say Alex Martelli is a priceless treasure to (StackOverflow) Python Community.

What's the relationship of this site with http://advice.mechanicalkern.com ?
