Python 3.1 final was released last week - congratulations!
Dear all,
We have written a review of Python aimed at econometricians and statisticians:
http://www.enac.fr/recherche/leea/Steve%20Lawford/papers/python.pdf
Some of the introductory material and examples may be of general interest.
Comments are very welcome (steve_lawf...@yahoo.co.uk).
Best,

http://www.doubletreegreen) between 8th and 12th September. The first 3 days
are conference days and the last 2 days are sprint days.
You can register at the early bird rates at
