[Python-Dev] Python Virtual Machine Architecture

2008-08-08 Thread Jon Stritar 
I'm trying to understand the architecture of the core Python interpreter and
virtual machine, but I've been having trouble finding the documentation. It
looks like most of the docs are for either writing Python programs or
extending / writing modules. Is there any documentation (or papers) geared
towards understanding the core? The closest I could find was this,

http://docs.python.org/api/api.html

but that is still geared towards extending it with C modules. I guess I'm
more interested in python's security architecture, but anything about the VM
or interpreter would be great!

Thanks,

--Jon

Re: [Python-Dev] String concatenation

Hmm, thanks, although I don't see why it was rejected, since it  
seems to me that by using the addition operator or triple-quoting  
all the use cases would become clearer and not significantly harder  
to write, while the (often silent) errors would not happen any more.


I use this feature all the time in preference to triple quote strings  
to allow the indenting structure to be preserved.


def I_like_this():
s = ("a multi line\n"
   "that keeps the indent of the function")
return

def I_do_not_like_this():
s = '''a multi line
that break the indent of the function"
return
