Hello All,

Is there any survey on scripting languages? I would
like to get information on several scripting languages
including Python, Perl, Ruby, Tcl, etc.

Thanks

Dave

I'd like to know how scripts are processed, whether
they are compiled into bytecode, how memory is
allocated for variables, how scripting languages
perform compared to each other, etc.

Python info

2005-03-14 Thread Dave Zhu
Hello All,

I would like to have a broad knowledge on Python.
Basically, I would like to know Python is designed,
how parsing, compilation, and interpretation take
place, how memory management works, how the Python
interpreter performs compared to others, etc. I
already looked at Python's documentation, but couldn't
find any detailed information. Any references would be
appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Dave

Symbol Tables

2005-05-26 Thread Dave Zhu
Hello,

I would like to know more about Python's symbol
tables. How are symbol tables implemented in Python?
Hash tables, lists, or arrays? I would really
appreciate if there is any documentation that you can
provide. Thank you in advance.

Dave
