Why Pythalon?

  • 發行項

Looking at the last point on its own grounds, you may think:  "Okay, you can program Avalon in Python.  So what?  I'm a C#/VB/C++ programmer...I need to learn Python why??"

The reason Pythalon is so fun is that it is interactive.  The programs in the previous listings are just Avalon apps written in a different language, but here's the console output from an interactive session using those programs:

import SnowFlake

p = SnowFlake.drawFlake(RootElement, 4)

p
<System.Windows.Shapes.Path object at 0x025BB5FF>

p.Fill
#FF00FFFF

p.Fill = Brushes.Red

p.Fill
#FFFF0000

t = ScaleTransform(2.0, 1.5)

t
scale(2 1.5)

p.RenderTransform = t

The visuals will have to wait...but the idea is, you can explore the Avalon OM interactively.  Play with it even more than you can with a live Xaml editor like AvPad.  Btw -- Python is a highly reflective language naturally.  The builtin dir() method lets you inspect any object (and classes are objects).  So for example:

p
<System.Windows.Shapes.Path object at 0x025BB5FF>

dir(p)

It's not Reflector, but it is pretty cool.
