What are you all up to? What projects are you working on?
Oh Ok, I'll play...
I use Python at work mainly to prototype ideas for bigger
projects that I am the overall designer for, eg:
"Can I get the customer data from such-and-such a web site,
and if so what would it look like?"
"Can I place an order using DCOM to that IIS web server
rather than through http?"
"What kind of algorithm will I need to sort these bonus
returns into ascending order to show which salesman had
the greatest number of sales versus the greatest sales revenue?"
etc etc...
At home I'm converting an Analog Electronic Design program from Pascal
to Python and intending to add a GUI to that when its finished.
It might wind up on Useless Python if it ever gets done!
And along with teaching myself Java, Scheme and Haskell that seems
to be my programming time pretty well filled!!
