Python Interpreters for better productivity

Hellos Pythonistas , While we all agree that getting good handle over programming language requires practice and we often want playground sort of experience to get a hang of what we are trying , thats when REPL - Read Evaluate Print Loop helps us

While default python interpreter is really nice , often you cant go back to what you typed if you make typos , and doesn't offer completion or nice GUI , there are couple of options to mitigate this pain and enjoy the pure python fun

• bpython : https://bpython-interpreter.org/screenshots.html
• ptpython : https://github.com/jonathanslenders/ptpython

I personally use bpython and love it so far , look at the screenshot

for the curious , b in the bpython stands for "Bob" 

• Ipython : https://ipython.org/
• A powerful interactive shell.
• A kernel for Jupyter.
• Support for interactive data visualization and use of GUI toolkits.
• Flexible, embeddable interpreters to load into your own projects.
• Easy to use, high performance tools for parallel computing.

• Jupyter Notebook : http://jupyter.org/ 

          Project Jupyter is a project born out of Ipython and its focus is interactive data science and 

          scientific computing

  

Well , thats it folks , the point across is all these options are better than default interpreter so make a switch to one of these for better productivity and lesser typing :-). 

Happy Pythoning , until next time ...........
