The Python Package Index, abbreviated as PyPI (/ ˌ p aɪ p i ˈ aɪ /) and also known as the Cheese Shop (a reference to the Monty Python's Flying Circus sketch "Cheese Shop"), [2]: 8 [3]: 742 is the official third-party software repository for Python. [4] It is analogous to the CPAN repository for Perl [5]: 36 and to the CRAN repository for R.
pip (also known by Python 3's alias pip3) is a package-management system written in Python and is used to install and manage software packages. [4] The Python Software Foundation recommends using pip for installing Python applications and its dependencies during deployment. [5]
SageMath is a large mathematical software application which integrates the work of nearly 100 free software projects. SymPy, a symbolic mathematical calculations package; PyMC, python module containing Bayesian statistical models and fitting algorithms, including Markov chain Monte Carlo.
Python is used extensively in the information security industry, including in exploit development. [231] [232] Most of the Sugar software for the One Laptop per Child XO, developed at Sugar Labs as of 2008, is written in Python. [233] The Raspberry Pi single-board computer project has adopted Python as its main user-programming language.
Python currently boasts a wide variety of web application frameworks, such as Zope, Quixote, Webware, SkunkWeb, PSO, and Twisted Web -- to name just a few. This wide variety of choices can be a problem for new Python users, because generally speaking, their choice of web framework will limit their choice of usable web servers, and vice versa...
Project Jupyter's name is a reference to the three core programming languages supported by Jupyter, which are Julia, Python and R. Its name and logo are an homage to Galileo's discovery of the moons of Jupiter, as documented in notebooks attributed to Galileo. Jupyter is financially sponsored by NumFOCUS. [1]
Pandas (styled as pandas) is a software library written for the Python programming language for data manipulation and analysis.In particular, it offers data structures and operations for manipulating numerical tables and time series.
Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})
