| What's New! |
| Introducing the Data Acquisition Framework (DAQ). New this fall is the launch of our I/O library for Python. Called DAQ, this externsive library and device I/O approach will save you time, implement consistent collection methods, lower your support requirements and speed your time to build. |
| Python Wiki! Few tools beat a wiki for sharing ideas. We're launching a wiki dedicated to Python coding and techniques. Find examples or submit your own. The wiki works both ways! |
What is Python?
Python is a dynamic object-oriented programming language that can be used for the development of many kinds of software. It offers strong support for integration with other languages and tools, comes with extensive standard libraries, and can be learned in a few days. Many Python programmers report substantial productivity gains and feel the language encourages the development of higher quality, more maintainable code.
Python runs on Windows, Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, OS/2, Amiga, Palm Handhelds, and Nokia mobile phones. Python has also been ported to the Java and .NET virtual machines.
Python Support in Digi Products
