Comments on: some python modules http://hea-www.harvard.edu/AstroStat/slog/2009/python-module/ Weaving together Astronomy+Statistics+Computer Science+Engineering+Intrumentation, far beyond the growing borders Fri, 01 Jun 2012 18:47:52 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4 By: hlee http://hea-www.harvard.edu/AstroStat/slog/2009/python-module/comment-page-1/#comment-931 hlee Thu, 19 Nov 2009 21:10:35 +0000 http://hea-www.harvard.edu/AstroStat/slog/?p=2507#comment-931 I appreciate your kind words and my apologies for the inconvenience by RSS feed failure. From time to time, I look for a solution but most of description assumes a certain directory structure for the wordpress blogging package. This slog not being located under my home directory makes a fix difficult. Even if live feed fails from time to time, it generally has worked out after <a href="http://hea-www.harvard.edu/AstroStat/slog/about/comment-page-1/#comment-915" rel="nofollow">correcting the rss feed url.</a> To answer your question, as mentioned, some motivation helps learning a new language. It was not python that I was banned from but a data analysis package that uses python. Not being allowed to use that package, I lost a reason to use python, while most of my stuffs can be done with R and a bunch of others (IDL,c, Fortran,c-shell script, pearl, Matlab, Mathematica, SAS, Minitab, SPSS, and few more). The ability of communicating and embracing other languages is the great merit of python, I think. I'm happy to know that you find these modules and libraries are informative. Thanks!

I'm in the process of switching from IDL to python and some of these modules are new to me. Your opening sentence makes me a bit worried though! I was really torn between R and python, but eventually considering also Rpy I went with python. What are your main arguments against python? I'm really curious, whether I should reconsider... Also - I was following this blog from the beginning, but roughly a year ago it seemingly died. I was suprised to find many new posts here today when I actually visited the website. Could there be a problem with your RSS feed? Neither my google reader nor NetNewsWire see posts after 11th Dec 2008. Thanks and keep up the nice blog! Thanks for the useful links!
