Auto-completion package available (looks in current buffer to append Use python-mode.el mode (NOT python.el): I recommend emacs (Aquamacs on Mac OS X) Built-in functions: - Python in a Nutshell book (useful for advanced users only) - Editors/IDEs - WingIDE has a free version: Understanding strings (and more generally, sequences): (1) Resources for Python programming - "index" is most useful - "Library Reference" is next in usefulness - These are the most relevant pages for BME205 Assignment #1: Tutorial docs: Several Python implementations: CPython, Jython, IronPython, etc. But remember: there is no "one true/best language" you will have to learn others. Thriving development community for language itself and associated tools.
Powerful standard library: - unit tests (module "unitest") - profiler (module "profile") - regular expressions (module "re") - iterators (module "itertools") - tests of docstring-embedded examples (module "doctest") - and many more! - Widely adopted, including by bioinformatics community. Why Python? - Easy for beginners, but many advanced features.
