Eric Python


I have download the Eric IDE for Python development and I hope to learn how to code in Python. It will be my first fully interpreted language that I have had a serious go at learning. While I know C# .NET is compiled to MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language) which allows it to be very much cross platform I still consider that a compiled language. I have worked with Java script and VB script before but only to the point of doing a bit of simple maths and random numbers in message boxes.

I thought that if I'm going to stick with Linux then I may as well learn a language with it too.

Good call!
Python (or Ruby) is a great next-stop on your journey to enlightenment...

I'm looking at us doing a project at school based on Python and supported by Sydney University (it's their programming language of choice)... stay tuned!!!
