Hi there, I had contact with several schools/universities in US which are using Portable Python in their classrooms. They install it on USB (or local) drives and everything works, no permissions/ configuration hassle. If kids broke installation it is simple matter of re-extracting Portable Python again and viola they can continue programming.
On the homepage of the project in "Useful links" you can find couple of links to free python books. In the next version I plan to include (optional) documentation together with Portable Python (http://www.PortablePython.com). regards, Perica On Sun, Sep 27, 2009 at 9:48 PM, Abhishek Mishra <ideam...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > >From some source that I can't remember at this moment, I remember > hearing about how Python is popularly used as a beginner's language to > teach kids programming in European countries.
