My homepage (German) has been updated

The first GUI-version of the calculator with expression parser in my Python course is now released. The Beta version has been online for sometime. It worked, but there were a lot of mistakes in the explanation. I excuse for for that.

Hi,

I was looking to port Python to the QL, what is the best version to attempt this.

Or maybe write a QL library that could run S*Basic programmes.


Regards,

Derek

Hi Derek,

I would recommend the current stable version. Don't use Python 2. It is still often used, as Python 3 is not fully compatible with Python 2, e.g. print is now a function (you must e.g. use print(...) on Python 3 instead of print ...). But my Python course is for Python 3.

I think it should be easy to port Python itself (at least with a cross compiler on PC, because of long pathnames), but the problem is, that Python is only interesting if we also have TK, the graphics toolkit from TCL/TK which Tkinter (TK interface for Python) is using and which makes GUI-programming with Python so astonishingly easy. This would most probably be the most difficult thing. Else you could only run programs with TUI (Text User Interface), no GUI applications (like my calculator in the GUI version - there is also a TUI version).

BTW: Today I did some (hopefully) last minor corrections to the website and the Python 3 course.

Some minor corrections made on "Start Page" of Python (a new Link why Python is named "Python").

New videos on the music page ("Offizielle Musikvideos")
