Hi, I'm just starting out with Python, and so far I am thoroughly impressed with what you can do very easily with the language. I'm coming from a C++ background here. A couple of questions came up as I was thinking about dynamically typed languages:
1. If someone releases an interface in Python, how does the user know what parameters the function takes/returns? 2. If documentation is the answer to 1, then are there any Python documentation standards? 3. Are there any tools out there that can extract the interface information from Python files and release it as documentation like header (.h) files? I know there are tools like this for languages like C#. 4. Really basic question, and I'm sure I will learn this very quickly with more reading, but I'm confused by the lack of an entry point in a Python app, i.e. int main(). Btw, I was turned on to Python from Bruce Eckel's article "Strong Typing vs Strong Testing." Thanks, John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
