Existence of pythonNN.zip in sys.path
by Anthony Tuininga May 7, 2014

May 7, 2014

Hi, I am the author of cx_Freeze which creates "frozen" executables from Python scripts. To this point I have been using frozen modules (compiled C) but this has the side effect of bundling parts of Python with a cx_Freeze release -- and this has bitten me on a number of occasions when newer versions of Python use slightly incompatible modules. :-) By scanning the code I discovered that Python automatically searches on startup <PYTHONHOME>/lib/pythonNN.zip where NN is replaced by the … [View More]

Python under the sea and in space
by Jessica McKellar May 6, 2014

May 6, 2014

Please note that I'm interested in where the code was executed, and not, say, where data that Python analyzed was acquired. I know for example that NASA has analyzed plenty of data from space in Python, but the analysis was done in labs here on Earth. :) Do you have some good candidates? Please let me know! Regards, -Jessica
