It probably needs plenty more polishing, especially on !NetBSD. Python 2.4 will remain the default for some time. For the new features in Python 2.5, look here: * http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/whatsnew25.html

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented
|
|
programming language that combines remarkable power with
|
|
very clear syntax. For an introduction to programming in
|
|
Python you are referred to the Python Tutorial. The
|
|
Python Library Reference documents built-in and standard
|
|
types, constants, functions and modules. Finally, the
|
|
Python Reference Manual describes the syntax and semantics
|
|
of the core language in (perhaps too) much detail.
|
|
|
|
Python's basic power can be extended with your own modules
|
|
written in C or C++. On most systems such modules may be
|
|
dynamically loaded. Python is also adaptable as an exten-
|
|
sion language for existing applications. See the internal
|
|
documentation for hints.
