Python is a high-level, object-oriented, strongly-typed programming language with garbage collection, byte-code compilation, dynamic types, and syntax that includes OOP, procedural and functional styles. It is an excellent glue language for libraries written in C, C++, Fortran, Java and CLR (dot-Net). It is also good for scripting. But that doesn't mean it is only a scripting language. Calling Python a scripting language is like calling an iPad "a clock", just because it has a clock app. Yes, you can use your iPad to tell the time, and that makes it a clock. But it's not *just* a clock, and Python is not *just* a scripting language. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
