ANN: Shed Skin 0.6
by Mark Dufour Oct. 23, 2010

Oct. 23, 2010

Hi all, I have just released Shed Skin 0.6, an optimizing (restricted-)Python-to-C++ compiler. Most importantly, this release comes with a substantial scalability improvement. It should now be possible to compile programs into several thousands of lines, as shown by the new Commodore 64 emulator example (around 2000 lines, sloccount). Please see my blog for the full announcement: http://shed-skin.blogspot.com Or go straight to the homepage: http://shedskin.googlecode.com Please have a look at the tutorial, try it out, and report issues at the homepage. Thanks, Mark Dufour -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6LsfnBmdnk

by Luis Pedro Coelho Oct. 22, 2010

Oct. 22, 2010

Hello List, This is to let you know of a new release of Jug. Jug allows you to write code that is broken up into tasks and run different tasks on different processors. It uses the filesystem to communicate between processes and works correctly over NFS, so you can coordinate processes on different machines. Jug is a pure Python implementation and should work on any platform. *Website*: `http://luispedro.org/software/jug <http://luispedro.org/software/jug>`_ *Documentation*: `http://packages.python.org/Jug <http://packages.python.org/Jug>`_ *Video*: On `vimeo <http://vimeo.com/8972696>`_ or `showmedo <http://showmedo.com/videotutorials/video?name=9750000;fromSeriesID=975>`_ *Mailing List*: `http://groups.google.com/group/jug-users <http://groups.google.com/group/jug-users>`_ NEW FEATURES in v0.7 -------------------- Created a Mailing List (http://groups.google.com/group/jug-users). Currently empty, but hopefully it will grow. Implemented a barrier() command which helps you break up your jugfile. See http://packages.python.org/Jug/barrier.html Bug reports, suggestions, &c are welcome. On this list or by private email to me. -- Luis Pedro Coelho http://luispedro.org

ANN: wxPython 2.9.1.1
by Robin Dunn Oct. 22, 2010

Oct. 22, 2010

Announcing ---------- The 2.9.1.1 release of wxPython is now available for download at http://wxpython.org/download.php. This is the first official release in the 2.9 development release series. There are lots and lots of new widgets and other awesome stuff that have been added since the 2.8 series, with more to come in future releases. A list of changes can be seen at http://wxpython.org/recentchanges.php. Also new with this release is a build for Mac OSX and Python 2.7 that uses the Cocoa API and supports the 64-bit architecture on OSX 10.5 and 10.6. Various binaries are available for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, and also for OSX using the Carbon and Cocoa APIs, for Python 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7. And source code is also available at http://wxpython.org/download.php of course for building your own. What is wxPython? ----------------- wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a set of Python extension modules that wrap the GUI components of the popular wxWidgets cross platform library, which is written in C++. wxPython is a cross-platform toolkit. This means that the same program will usually run on multiple platforms without modifications. Currently supported platforms are 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft Windows, most Linux or other Unix-like systems using GTK2, and Mac OS X 10.4+. In most cases the native widgets are used on each platform to provide a 100% native look and feel for the application. -- Robin Dunn Software Craftsman http://wxPython.org

ANN: Numexpr 1.4.1 released
by Francesc Alted Oct. 20, 2010

Oct. 20, 2010

========================== Announcing Numexpr 1.4.1 ========================== Numexpr is a fast numerical expression evaluator for NumPy. With it, expressions that operate on arrays (like "3*a+4*b") are accelerated and use less memory than doing the same calculation in Python. What's new ========== This is a maintenance release. On it, several improvements have been done in order to prevent deadlocks in new threaded code (fixes #33). Also the GIL is released now during computations, which should be interesting for embedding numexpr in threaded Python apps. In case you want to know more in detail what has changed in this version, see: http://code.google.com/p/numexpr/wiki/ReleaseNotes or have a look at RELEASE_NOTES.txt in the tarball. Where I can find Numexpr? ========================= The project is hosted at Google code in: http://code.google.com/p/numexpr/ And you can get the packages from PyPI as well: http://pypi.python.org/pypi Share your experience ===================== Let us know of any bugs, suggestions, gripes, kudos, etc. you may have. Enjoy! -- Francesc Alted

buckingham 1.0
by Massimo Di Pierro Oct. 18, 2010

Oct. 18, 2010

Dimensional Analysis / Formula Validation/ Units Conversion / Error Propagation In one single small file without dependencies buckingham.py http://code.google.com/p/buckingham/ based on the Buckingham Theorem How to use download the module download Python start Python import the module: >>> from buckingham import Number, sin, cos, exp, log, allunits, pm Example of dimensional analysis and conversions >>> a = Number(10,dims='meter/second') >>> b = Number(2,dims='yard/minute') >>> c = a + b >>> print c.convert('kilometer/hour') (36.109728 ± 0) >>> Number(1,dims='joule').convert('eV').value 6.2415096471204178e+18 >>> print c.value, c.error, c.units() 10.03048 0.0 meter*second^-1 Without conversion results are always in: meters, seconds, grams, ampere, kelvin, currency (and combination) The error is the standard deviation assuming the true value is Normal distributed Error propagation assumes independence >>> a = Number(1,dims='decimeter^3') >>> b = Number(2,dims='liter') >>> c = Number(5,dims='gram/centimeter^3') >>> d = (a + b)*c >>> print d.convert('kilogram') (15.000000 ± 0) Simplified syntax >>> globals().update(allunits()) >>> length = (4+pm(0.5)) * meter >>> velocity = 5 * meter/second >>> time = length/velocity >>> print time (8.00 ± 1.00)/10 Example of formula validation >>> a = Number(10,dims='meter/second') >>> b = Number(2,dims='yard^3') >>> c = a + b Traceback (most recent call last): ... RuntimeError: Incompatible Dimensions Examples of error propagation >>> a = Number(10,error=2,dims='meter/second') # (10±2)m/s >>> b = Number(5,error=1,dims='hour') # (5±1)h >>> c = a*b >>> print c.convert('kilometer') (1.800 ± 0.509)x10^2 >>> print c.convert('lightyear') (1.903 ± 0.538)/10^11 >>> print c.convert('kilometer').value 180.0 >>> print c.convert('kilometer').error 50.9116882454 Examples of more complex formulas >>> c = a**4/(7*b) >>> print '%s %s' % (c,c.units()) (7.94 ± 6.54)/10^2 meter^4*second^-5 For pure numbers sin, cos, exp, log are also defined. You can use a.is_pure() to check if a number is pure. Financial application example >>> coupon = Number(200,error=1,dims="dollar/day") >>> expiration = Number(1,error=0,dims="year") >>> payoff = coupon*expiration >>> print payoff.convert('dollar') (7.3048 ± 0.0365)x10^4 I.e. $73048 dollars with $365 dollars of one sigma uncertainly Latex Output >>> print payoff.as_latex() (7.3048 \pm 0.0365)\times 10^{4} Rouding Notice the output as a string always uses scientific notation and value is automatically rounded compatibly with error/uncertainty in result. Supported units and combination of ampere, angstrom, atm, attoL, attoampere, attoangstrom, attoatm, attoau, attobar, attocalorie, attocoulomb, attocurrency, attoday, attodollar, attoeV, attoev,

cx_Freeze 4.2.1
by Anthony Tuininga Oct. 17, 2010

Oct. 17, 2010

What is cx_Freeze? cx_Freeze is a set of scripts and modules for freezing Python scripts into executables in much the same way that py2exe and py2app do. Unlike these two tools, however, cx_Freeze is cross platform and should work on any platform that Python itself works on. Where do I get it? http://cx-freeze.sourceforge.net What's new? Changes from 4.2 to 4.2.1 1) Added support for specifying bin_path_includes and bin_path_excludes in setup scripts. 2) Added support for compiling Windows services with the Microsoft compiler and building for 64-bit Windows. 3) When installing Windows services, use the full path for both the executable and the configuration file if specified. 4) Eliminate duplicate files for each possible version of Python when building MSI packages for Python 2.7. 5) Fix declaration of namespace packages. 6) Fix check for cx_Logging import library directory. 7) Added hooks for the python-Xlib package. 8) Added hooks to ignore the _scproxy module when not on the Mac platform and the win32gui and pyHook modules on platforms other than Windows. 9) When copying files, copy the stat() information as well as was done in earlier versions of cx_Freeze. 10) Added documentation for the shortcutName and shortcutDir parameters for creating an executable.

Oct. 16, 2010

PyScripter is a free and open-source Python Integrated Development Environment (IDE) created with the ambition to become competitive in functionality with commercial Windows-based IDEs available for other languages. Features: http://code.google.com/p/pyscripter/wiki/Features Screenshots: http://code.google.com/p/pyscripter/wiki/Screenshots Recent review: http://review.techworld.com/programming/3238828/pyscripter-review/ PyScripter version 2.3.1 was released at http://pyscripter.googlecode.com. This quite a major update containing a number of new features and bug fixes. You can get additional information about the new features by visiting the PyScripter blog (http://pyscripter.blogspot.com/). * *New features:* * Native unicode strings throught (speed improvements on XP) * Revamped Code Explorer (Issues 192, 163, 213, 225) * Improvements to Code completion * Auto-completion for the import statement (Issue #230) * Processing of function return statements * Background module parsing and caching of parsed modules * Start-up python scripts pyscripter_init.py and python_init.py. See help file for details. * Imporved "Match Brace" (Issue #426) and New Editor Command "Select to brace" * Italian translation by Vincenzo Demasi added * Russian translation by Aleksander Dragunkin added * New IDE option "Highlight selected word" (Issue #404) * New IDE option "Use Python colors in IDE" * New Edit command "Copy File Name" available at the contex menu of the tab bar * New commands "Previous Frame", "Next Frame" to change frame using the keyboard (Issue #399) * JavaScript and PHP Syntax Highlighters added * *Issues addressed* * 103, 239, 267, 270, 271, 294, 317, 324, 343, 378, 395, 403, 405, 407, 411, 412, 413, 419, 421, 422, 425 The full history can be found at http://code.google.com/p/pyscripter/wiki/History. Since version 2.0, PyScripter does not require a separate install of rpyc, and existing installations of rpyc do not interfere with pyscripter. The remote Python engine is now the default for new installations and by default the remote engine is reinitialized before each run to avoid issues with running GUI scriprts.

ANNOUNCE: Gaphor 0.16.0 / Gaphas 0.7.0
by Arjan Molenaar Oct. 15, 2010

Oct. 15, 2010

Gaphor 0.16.0 ============= Gaphor is a UML modeling tool written in Python. The code is stable for a while now, so it's about time we make a new release. Since the last version some nice new functionality has been added. Most notably: - Guides support from Gaphas 0.7.0 - "hand written" drawing style - Keyboard shortcuts for toolbox selection - Fixed issue in undo transaction handling - Proper dialog when exiting with changed model --- Gaphas (the canvas component) has been released a while ago. The most important changes are: - New feature: Guides, for aligning elements - Free hand drawing style - Introduced aspects for finding items and handles - Painters are bound to a specific view, like tools It's a worthwhile update! Regards, Arjan
