translating the python tutorial in french
by rob wilco Oct. 31, 2005

Hello Doc-Sig List, I have looked for an up to date version of the "official" python tutorial in french. I haven't found one. If no one is on it, can I do/maintain it? I am a french IT engineer, not a python hacker (yet), I have done translations before. If you are all right with that, i'll take any info you have about the tools you use, the organization/process and all that ... Also, I reviewed the links toward the python documentation in french, that page : http://www.python.org/doc/NonEnglish.html#french I copied/pasted the section below and added my comments preceded by a '#' when I felt there was a need to do so. These documentations are quite old in general, and this section is far from exhaustive. The link toward the french python mailing list is indeed useful, apart from that, it is my humble suggestion that efforts would be saved by delegating the updating of the list of french python documentation to the search engines. Plus, new users would not be led to pages from sometimes 5 years ago. Cheers, Rob Wilco French - AFPY - Association Francophone PYthon <http://afpy.org/>, a French-speaking Python users' group. - There is a wiki for French-speaking Python users<http://wikipython.flibuste.net/>. ézd translation of Downey & ért* to Think Like a Computer Scientist*, and partly original material. - Une journée avec IDLE<http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/%7Edyoo/python/idle_intro/indexfr.html>is a French translation of Danny Yoo's One Day of IDLE Toying<http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu/%7Edyoo/python/idle_intro/indexfr.html>, translated by Yannick Gobin. # The second link opens the same page as the first link.
