i'm getting ready to teach a Python-based intro programming course, and i've committed to a development stack leading to PyDev on Eclipse. (yes, my sanity has already been questioned.)
if this class is like most others, most kids will come in with Windoz laptops, but some with Macs, and (long shot) maybe even a Linux user or two. So i've written up some instructions for getting their environments put together, at: http://cogs18.edurik.org/syllabus/resources/installation-of-python-eclipse-pydev-environment i'm wondering if members of this experienced list might give it a read and see if they can suggest any sources of confusion i might avoid? in particular, if you look at http://cogs18.edurik.org/syllabus/resources/installation-of-python-eclipse-pydev-environment#section-1 Item#3 has to do with the Mac install of Python. here i lay out two alternatives, one using the standard system installed Python and the other installing the standard Python release. since my ultimate goal is to simply get the PyDev plugin for Eclipse operational, and PyDev says it'll work with any Python >= 2.1, this SEEMs safe. do y'all agree? any other suggestions? the students-to-come thank you!
