Python in Large Organisations
Get PDFPython provides some flexible and powerful tools at low cost, and encourages clean and maintainable design. This can be a compelling value proposition and is recognised by many organisations. But on the other hand, Python's penetration of the enterprise space is not always high.This document outlines the experience of the NHS Connecting for Health (NHS CFH) web team, deploying, running and supporting Python-based systems. NHS CFH is one part of the UK National Health Service. Collectively, the NHS is one of the largest organisations in the world
Web-based 3D animation software
Get PDFWe are building a web based application for 3D animation creation, similar to what Google sketchup is to 3D modelling, allowing users to enjoy animation creation without download, installation and concerns with graphics hardware. Users customise 3D scenes and chronological events on the web front end, then the task is processed and rendered by the servers remotely. The resulting animation file is hosted online for viewing, sharing or downloading. In the text we will discuss the structure with emphasise on rendering processes
Ten Z-test routines from Gopal Kanjis 100 Statistical Tests
Get PDFThis manuscript presents the implementation and testing of 10 Z-test routines from Gopal Kanji’s book entitled “100 Statistical Tests”
Using the Stochastic Simulation in Java Library from Jython
Get PDFThe Stochastic Simulation in Java (SSJ) library provides a set of software tools supporting discrete-event simulation using the Java programming language. It also supports continuous simulation, discrete event simulation with both event-oriented view and process-oriented views, quasi-Monte Carlo methods, and mixtures of these. This article demonstrates use of SSJ from Jython and suggests situations where Jython may be a preferred method of accessing the library
Tkinter Does Not Suck, Honest
Get PDFI hope to dispel the often-repeated myth that Tkinter just plain sucks. I propose three reasons it does not suck: it's simple, it's always there and it just works. There are two reasons why Tkinter might suck: it doesn't look that pretty and extending is a little tricky. I intend to show that it doesn't have to look that ugly these days with skinning, and that extending is actually quite easy
Introduction to Computer Vision in Python
Get PDFAn introduction to computer vision in Python, from the general concept to its implementation with some current open-source libraries. This paper demonstrates a selection of basic computer vision examples using SciPy, OpenCV and Pygame
Source Code: Automatic C Library Wrapping -- Ctypes from the Trenches
Get PDFAt some point of time many Python developers -- at least in computational science -- will face the situation that they want to nterface some natively compiled library from Python. For binding ative code to Python by now a larger variety of tools and echnologies are available. This paper focuses on wrapping shared C ibraries, using Python's default ctypes, with the help of the matching source code generator from ctypeslib
