python/*: Moved a lot of Python stuff here
The criteria for whether something "belongs" in Development or
Libraries or Python or ... is admittedly arbitrary. As a general
rule, if it could be either Libraries or Python, it's Python.
Otherwise, pick one and we'll go from there...

Python's basic power +can be extended with your own modules written in C or C++. Python is also +adaptable as an extension language for existing applications. + +Python 3 (a.k.a. "Python 3000" or "Py3k") is a new version of the language that +is incompatible with the 2.x line of releases. The language is mostly the +same, but many details, especially how built-in objects like dictionaries and +strings work, have changed considerably, and a lot of deprecated features have +finally been removed. Also, the standard library has been reorganized in a few +prominent places. + +It is safe to install this on a system which already has 2.x version of Python. |
