Why Python?


Q. Why would a "dyed-in-the-wool" Delphi fan want to learn Python?

R. Scripting

  • Allow site-specific customizations of business logic, without having to build and support multiple sibling versions.

  • Provide a scriptable interface to automation clients.

  • Tune/script/stest OLE and CORBA objects during design time, without an edit/compile/link cycle (sure, _Delphi's_ compiler is fast, but throw in MIDL, CORBA IDL, or a foreign type library, and turnaround goes down the drain).
