Building the GUI, working with the database, input/output, printing, a calender module, collision detection, ... - a lot of interesting stuff for a (beginner's ?) tutorial.

We use it for storing characters for a roleplaying module (which as of now delivers a simulator for battles with a few thousand fighters), and it makes it a joy to edit characters in any texteditor. http://yaml.org/ Or about Version tracking with Mercurial, a distributed Source Code Management tool in python. http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/ I use both for the rpg tools for my own ruleset: 1d6. Code statistics: http://www.ohloh.net/projects/7065 At ohloh, which might also be itneresting.

It is a framework which eases data processing by seperating it into modules which are then composed into flows. It includes several algorithms coming mainly from the field of computational neuroscience (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_neuroscience), such as Independent Component Analysis, Slow Feature Analysis, Growing Neural Gas. This article http://compbiol.plosjournals.org/perlserv/?request=get-document&doi=10.1371/journal.pcbi.0030166 shows for example how such analyses can be used to model navigation in rats. There is more to come, so please stay tuned! Hi,

If XML has always been painful, that's over with lxml. The new ElementTree API in the Python standard library already is a huge step forwards. And lxml now takes this simple API one step further, adding the full power of libxml/libxslt. I definitely love it! Ok, that one’s not too funky, but I think it’s worth knowing about: lxml.
