It’s been a while since I have done any interesting Python links. I quit for a while because these things take a while to put together and few seemed interested, but I’ll give it another go. This week has a really interesting article on Python and robots. Jesse Noller has a fun article where he collects various Python stories too (I nabbed a couple of his picks for mine too because he was right: they are interesting!)
- Building a face-tracking robot (Headroid1) with Python in an afternoon
- Python Debugging; Embarrassment, Contracts and Nothing is private (Jesse Noller)
- Nothing is Private: Python Closures (and ctypes) – Michael Foord
- namedtuple and exec() by Kristján Valur
- Both PyTexas and PyCon Japan are calling for papers so if you like talking about Python, get in on the action now!
- mock 0.7.2 and PyDev 2.1.0 were both released recently.
- Quick and Easy Debugging in Python by Jeet Sukumaran
- Teaching (and learning) Python by Ned Batchelder
- Filenames with accents by Ned Batchelder
If you think I missed something awesome that happened in the Python world recently, let me know in the comments and maybe I’ll add it next time. Thanks for your support!
Second link and first both go to face tracking story.
