Congrats! I love hearing stuff like this... keep them coming! I'm curious as to how Python was able to help you get your job done this time (without going into anything confidential naturally). What was it about the language? Or was it specific Python modules/packages you used for the analysis?
Does anyone else have similar stories? (I think I may be biased as I use Python for everything, trouble or otherwise, so I can't tell the difference anymore!) cheers, -wesley On Sun, Dec 4, 2011 at 12:45 AM, Mark Lybrand <mlybr...@gmail.com> wrote: > No question.
