Active Python Releases

• As the title says I want to install spyder for python3 on my mac. Since I couldn't find any easy installation just by clicking some where. On mac python 2.7 is preinstalled and I already installed python3 which was pretty easy. So I started by installing pip by typing sudo easyinstall pip in the command line.
• More from Raghav - How to install Python on MacOS Step by Step for Beginners Today we will learn: 1. Check if Python is alr.
• Which essentially means an interface for Python to access the native Windows API. Obviously this means to use it on Windows exclusively (I tried, doesn't event work under cygwin, so don't even think about Mac).

For both problems there are many possibilities in Python and there are many questions and answers here on SO. – Matthias Jan 9 '17 at 9:26 I really just need something for playing.wav files, basically just like how winsound works.

Licenses

All Python releases are Open Source. Historically, most, but not all, Python releases have also been GPL-compatible. The Licenses page details GPL-compatibility and Terms and Conditions.

Sources

For most Unix systems, you must download and compile the source code. The same source code archive can also be used to build the Windows and Mac versions, and is the starting point for ports to all other platforms.

Download the latest Python 3 and Python 2 source.

Alternative Implementations

This site hosts the 'traditional' implementation of Python (nicknamed CPython). A number of alternative implementations are available as well.

History

Python was created in the early 1990s by Guido van Rossum at Stichting Mathematisch Centrum in the Netherlands as a successor of a language called ABC. Guido remains Python’s principal author, although it includes many contributions from others.

Python for Mac OS X

Python comes pre-installed on Mac OS X so it is easy to startusing. However, to take advantage of the latest versions ofPython, you will need to download and install newer versionsalongside the system ones. The easiest way to do that is toinstall one of the binary installers for OS X from thePython Download page. Installers areavailable for the latest Python 3 and Python 2 releases thatwill work on all Macs that run Mac OS X 10.5 and later.

Python releases include IDLE, Python's built-in interactivedevelopment environment. If you download and install Pythonfrom the release page, you may also need to download and installa newer version of Tcl/Tk for OS X. See theIDLE and Tkinter on OS X page formore information.

You can run a Python interpreter by double-clicking onApplications / Utilities / Terminal and typing python3 (if you'veinstalled a version of Python 3) or python (to use Python 2) inthe window that opens up. You can also launch IDLE for the Pythonversion you have installed by double-clicking its icon inthe appropriate Python version folder in the Applications folderor you can also just type idle3 or idle in a terminal window.

Mac themes for windows 10. There are many thousands of additional Python software packagesavailable through PyPI, the PythonPackage Index. We recommend you use thepip tool to simplifyinstalling and managing additional packages. pip is includedwith Python 3.4 releases; for earlier releases, follow the pipinstall instructions.

Among the packages available through PyPI are some that arespecifically for OS X environments. Among these are:

• pyobjc which providesa bridge between Python and Objective-C, allowing you to writefull-featured native Cocoa applications in pure Python.
• py2app which allowsyou to make standalone OS X double-clickable application bundlesand plugins from Python scripts.

For more information about Python on OS X, see the mailing list and archivesfor thePython-Macintosh Special Interest Group.

Alternative Packages for Mac OS X.

• ActiveState ActivePython(commercial and community versions, including scientific computing modules).
• Enthought Python DistributionThe Enthought Python Distribution provides scientists with a comprehensive setof tools to perform rigorous data analysis and visualization.

Python For Mac Os X

Python and a comprehensive set of third-party packages and libraries are alsoavailable from several open source package manager projects for OS X,including:
