Python.
« on: October 11, 2009, 18:06:23 »
Has anyone here ever used Python to make programs? I finally found a programming language I like! Python is so simple, what do you guys think of it? Ever heard of it?

I have in fact used Python many, many times, :doh:

You should have no problem with it, it is a very nice programming environment.  The only thing that gets a little bit hairy is importing 3D meshes for using inside of a program.  I have this problem when I went to go make a Aircraft Carrier Flight Simulator. :P

Yeah, I'm already good with it, I've already programmed a calculator that can divide, multiply, and all that jazz. It won't do percents though, I'm positive that if I use 'float' that I could though. Llamalord, do you know if it would be possible to create a basic crappy mac dock look alike?

I'm experimenting with making model icons and a reflective surface in blender, to imitate the mac dock. I then will make some python scripts or game scripts to make them bigger when the mouse is over them, then somehow load the models with python, I'm not sure if it'll work, but it's worth a shot.

EDIT: Here is the dock in it's current state: (With a self made blender icon) :P

Reply to Jonah:
Python is a programming language, used to write programs, you can do whatever you want with it, from make a 3d modeling program from scratch, or, in a darker tone, make malware.

For that Flight Simulator I mentioned, I created a menu at the top when you hover over it with your mouse so I imagine that wouldn't be that much harder. :P

You could... but as I found out the process pool and RAM pool for Python are relatively small so after you get about 500,000 polygons in a single frame and then Render to Texture, even before the extras like Anti-Aliasing take place, your frame rates will drop to about 10FPS and go down from there. :sleepy:

Could you please PM me with more info, Llamalord?
@ MC If you knew it was off topic, then why did you post it even after I politely asked for it to stay clear of that discussion? Is it any different then Aad or Saltydog asking for things to stay on topic? No, they asked exactly like I did and apparently there are different levels of respect here if what I see is true.

Good idea. Who wants to see some python code?

print("This is python code")
x = raw_input("Enter your favorite number")
if x


And that's all I bothered to write as I'm very tired.
