Kunenqwaba yezilimi ezihlelayo, ezinye zazo ziyaziwa futhi ziyasetshenziswa, njengoba kunjalo nge Python. Ulimi oluhunyushiwe, futhi lokho kulula nokufunda, yize kungelona olushesha kakhulu. Lolu limi lohlelo lusetshenziselwa ukudala izinhlelo ezihlukile futhi muva nje lusetshenziswa kabanzi ukudala imibhalo yokuphatha izinhlelo noma yokugenca. Kepha lokhu akuyona into esifuna ukukhuluma ngayo kule ndatshana, yize iPython ingomunye wabalingisi bezindaba ...
IPython yadalwa ngu UGuido van Rossum ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-XNUMX ukuze uphumelele ulimi lwe-ABC. Igama lolu limi olunelukuluku livela eMonty Python, iqembu elidumile losomahlaya baseBrithani. UVan Rossum ubefuna ukushicilela ikhodi yale phrojekthi abekade eyenza futhi yingale ndlela lolu limi lohlelo olusetshenziswa kabanzi namuhla lungene ngayo emphakathini. Okwamanje i-cross-platform futhi iphethwe ngaphansi kwePython Software Foundation. Kusuka kuwebhusayithi esemthethweni yephrojekthi ungalanda izinhlobo zayo ezahlukahlukene futhi uthole imibhalo.
Uma ungazi ukuthi ungahlelela kanjani noma usanda kuqala, ngincoma iPython, ngoba akulona ulimi olunzima. Futhi ngendlela, ilayisense lapho lolu limi lushicilelwa ngaphansi kwalo lukhethekile olubizwa Ilayisensi yePython Software Foundation, iyahambisana ne-GNU GPL njengenguqulo 2.1.1, noma ingahambelani nezinguqulo ezithile zangaphambilini. Futhi uma sikhuluma ngePython Software Foundation, ukusho ukuthi kuyisisekelo esibhekele ukuphatha nokwazisa ulimi lohlelo.
Kuyinhlangano engenzi nzuzo. I-PSF yasungulwa ngonyaka we-2001 futhi imane nje izinikele ekuphatheni (ukuthuthukiswa, ukuphathwa kwamalungelo engqondo, ukuthola izimali zezomnotho ukuze kuqhutshekwe nokuziphendukela kwemvelo, njll.) Le phrojekthi kusukela lapho, manje esithuthukiswa ngenxa yomphakathi. Futhi ekugcineni, ngithanda ukusho ukuthi phakathi kwezinhlobo ezahlukahlukene kukhona IPython 2.x nePython 3.x, eyokugcina enezinto ezintsha ezahlukahlukene. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukusetshenziswa okufana ne-CPython, IronPython (okwenzelwe i-NET), i-Stackless Python (i-CPython ngaphandle kwe-C stack), i-Jython (eyenziwe ngeJava), i-Pippy (ye-Palm), i-PyPy (eyenziwe yi-JIT) ne-ActivePython (ephathelene nezandiso ).
