Re: [Numpy-discussion] ANN: Numpy runs on Python 3

hi, 
it's probably obvious for most of the subscribers, but still:

svn clone http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/trunk/ numpy

should actually read:

svn checkout http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/trunk/ numpy

that said, I'm looking forward to the git migration ;-)

ciao,

 Hi,
 
 As many of you probably already know, Numpy works fully on Python 3 and 
 Python 2, with a *single code base*, since March. This work is scheduled 
 to be included in the next releases 1.5 and 2.0.
 
 Porting Scipy to work on Python 3 has proved to be much less work, and 
 will probably be finished soon. (Ongoing work is here: http://
 github.com/cournape/scipy3/commits/py3k , http://github.com/pv/scipy-work/
 commits/py3k )
 
 For those who are interested in already starting to port their stuff to 
 Python 3, you can use Numpy's SVN trunk version. Grab it:
 
   svn clone http://svn.scipy.org/svn/numpy/trunk/ numpy
   cd numpy
   python3 setup.py build
 
 An important point is that supporting Python 3 and Python 2 in the same 
 code base can be done, and it is not very difficult either. It is also 
 much preferable from the maintenance POV to creating separate branches 
 for Python 2 and 3. We attempted to log changes needed in Numpy at
 
   http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/browser/trunk/doc/Py3K.txt
 
 which may be useful (although not completely up-to-date) information for 
 people wanting to do make the same transition in their own code.

From a PR point of view, it'd be great to have an announcement like
this go out to python-list/comp.lang.python. Anyone who follows that
list will have seen the continual debate about the progress being
made by major projects in terms of Python 3 support. Numpy is often
cited as one of the big projects which people are waiting on, so I
think a lot of people would be excited to hear that the trunk supports
python 3. Furthermore, the implementation notes you've got there would
be a useful resource for other people looking to make the 2-3
transition.

Just my 2c, many thanks as always to the people putting in all the
hard work to make numpy happen!
