MyOwnLittlWorld
Added the following pages as an introduction to python, to replace the existing material, which is a little convoluted and repetitive:
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Where to go for Help
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Conventions
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Installing Python
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Python: Interactive Mode
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Python: Non-Interactive (Script) Mode
- User:MyOwnLittlWorld/Python/Things to Keep in Mind
And the appendix referenced in the last page:
Please comment on my talk page about how you think these articles are, and whether or not they're an improvement over the current Python introduction (excluding the Overview of Python article, for now, unless someone wants me to remake that too).
If it's decided that we need to introduce users to at least one IDE, I'd suggest Idle as it's packaged with Python, thus everyone's guaranteed to have it with minimum effort, and would probably be pretty similar to the text editor that users would be using up to that point.

Note: When they begin talk about indentation (probably if clauses) mention how you have to indent lines in the interpreter too or use IPython[1]. --MyOwnLittlWorld 22:43, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
