Yes. For starters, google

pygame
pyglet
And python is used as scripting language in quite a few commercial
products, such as eve online.

Python is a core technology for CCP, the producers of EVE Online, which
is I believe the largest single-sharded multi-player game currently
running, and which has supported over 40,000 simultaneously logged-in
users on a 200+-CPU cluster if I'm not mistaken.

regards
Steve

Hi, I've been programming in Python for a couple of weeks now and am quite impressed with the language - it was very easy to learn (it actually reminds me a lot of programming in BASIC many many years ago - it's very fast to hack together a couple lines of code in interactive mode). I'm throwing together a simple little game (sort of a MUD-type thing) as my first 'big' project, and I thought it would be cool to be able to script the...

I've sent several messages over the last year asking about python - Who teaches python? Is python losing steam? etc. I have noticed, eg, the declinng number of books at my local borders. The last time I visited a borders (last week), there was 1 (sic) book about python on the shelve compared to dozens on perl & java! On my last inquiry about who teaching python, I got two, maybe three, responses. I really want to see python succeed! It's...

Sorry about the cryptic subject line, but I wanted to capture the essence of my message in a single line. I am learning Python (which, as everyone know is the best language :-) so that I can write a tutorial to teach my kids about computer programming. The motivation for them will be to use Python to create their own games using pygame and, eventually, blender3d. From what I hear, their friends will be interested in that tutorial too. ...

Beginners question, but really what can you do with it ? How hard is Python to learn compared with other languages (let's say C#). Can you make fullscreen game with it (for example) ? I've looked at http://www.python.org but nothing concrete there

Hi. I am interested in learning a new programming language, and have been debating whether to learn Ruby or Python. How do these compare and contrast with one another, and what advantages does one language provide over the other? I would like to consider as many opinions as I can on this matter before I start studying either language in depth. Any help/comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

I have to say, I'm having a very enjoyable time learning and using Python. I spent a year playing around with C# and I feel like I learned/know less about it than I do about Python from just the past couple of months. Of course it's easier, but there's just something about it that makes me keep coming back to it and try to think of new ways to use it. Lately I've started to branch away from the "core" Python and I started learning...

Hello, after reading some of the book Programming Python it seems that python is something I would like to delve deeper into. The only thing is, I have no idea what I should try and write. So I was hoping that someone here could help point me to a group/project that would be a good starting place for a person with limited python knowledge, but that is willing to learn whatever is necessary. I'm hoping that with a goal I can start to learn...

Hi I would like to learn python I have background in php, pawn, bash. I was wondering if anyone would like to show me the ropes or even just throw me some code that needs work and seeing what I come up with. Twisted python seems to have very bright people behind it using newer programming ideas which would tie in nicely with what I want to know. I have read programming python: novice to professional.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
