Python programming in Windows

You can try Python programming in windows. It will be really useful for students started learning programming. I dont have much experience in Python. But seems like easy programming compared to C/C++ - not much syntax, extensive ADTs, a lot of useful libraries.

You can use Python in different ways - as a good programming language or scripting language.
The best thing is we can use python code embedded in to C/C++ code. You will get more information about this from here: http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/ext/contents.html

You can install Python in your windows machine by downloading windows installer for Python and windows extensions. More information here: http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~ggbaker/reference/modeling/wininstall
