I want to start programming a new program (electronic health care center) in python and before start learning python i wanna make sure that python does have all the features i need to accomplish this project so i wanna ask you does python able to support these features :
1- cross platform (windows + linux) 2- mysql database access 3- 2D graphs (curves) 4- support of international languages 5- can access a scanner and input pictures from it. and possibly be able to import data from labratory machines (such as CBC machines) to automatically register patient investigations result into the system (not mandatory) so can python (with any freely available libraries) do all that and still be cross platform ? thankx in advance :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
