|
|||
Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at Stichting
|
||||
Mathematisch Centrum (CWI) in the Netherlands as a successor of a
|
||||
language called ABC. Guido is Python's principal author, although it
|
||||
includes many contributions by others. The last version released from
|
||||
CWI was Python 1.2. In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python at
|
||||
the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI) in Reston,
|
||||
includes many contributions from others. The last version released
|
||||
from CWI was Python 1.2. In 1995, Guido continued his work on Python
|
||||
at the Corporation for National Research Initiatives (CNRI) in Reston,
|
||||
Virginia where he released several versions of the software. Python
|
||||
1.6 was the last of the versions released by CNRI. In 2000, Guido and
|
||||
the Python core developement team moved to BeOpen.com to form tbe
|
||||
BeOpen PythonLabs group. Python 2.0 is a derivative work of Python
|
||||
1.6, developed by PythonLabs and many outside volunteers, under
|
||||
Guido's direction.
|
||||
the Python core developement team moved to BeOpen.com to form the
|
||||
BeOpen PythonLabs team (www.pythonlabs.com). Python 2.0 is the first
|
||||
release from PythonLabs. Thanks to the many outside volunteers who
|
||||
have worked under Guido's direction to make this release possible.
