I know the Resolver guys will be there to call on for help and I don't mind getting the thing to run on Mono on my MacBook, but I think the whole subject of IronPython/ Jython/Pypy and cPython alternatives might be a good subject for a show-and-tell type dojo (make your Python write once, run everywhere). I think he meant ipython http://ipython.scipy.org/, the interactive python shell, not IronPython. ipython (or bpython http://www.bpython-interpreter.org/) is a good idea. Particularly for 'investigative' programming. Ed ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk

One particularly useful feature is doctest-mode. Which makes the shell look just like a regular python shell, but allows you to paste in doctest style code. Very useful for copying and pasting code from the web to try it out. # Eg. Pasting in exactly this, will work >>> x = 1 >>> print x # It strips out all the leading >>> Ed ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
Re: [python-uk] Reminder: London Python Code Dojo Tomorrow

From then on we'll try to run the meeting on the first Thursday of every month. Just to throw in a dissenting voice. Is there any chance that the day of the week could be varied every now and then? I can pretty much never make a Thursday, and I would like to come and try it out. Ed ___ python-uk mailing list python-uk@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-uk
