I don't know python, haven't used it, most prolly wont. But at work I was asked a question about how to load up and read Python Scripts in C++. Is there a library to download to which would help the student?

It's so that he could load up the python scripts into his program and use the data in them to run the game. I think he was saying that he is using pygame or something to test the python scripts. I'm guess what he wants to do is a pygame type application which he can use.

Anywho, thanks in advance...

From their docs:

quote:

---

There are several different ways to call the interpreter: you can pass a string containing Python statements to PyRun_SimpleString(), or you can pass a stdio file pointer and a file name (for identification in error messages only) to PyRun_SimpleFile(). You can also call the lower-level operations described in the previous chapters to construct and use Python objects.

---

A very simple example from the docs:

quote:

---

#include <Python.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { Py_Initialize(); PyRun_SimpleString("from time import time,ctime\n" "print 'Today is',ctime(time())\n"); Py_Finalize(); return 0; }

---

I think you will find python to be simple yet very powerful. Its a fun language!
