1.5. Obtaining Python

For the most up-to-date and current source code, binaries, documentation, news, etc., check either the main Python language site or the PythonLabs Web site:

http://www.python.org        (community home page)
http://www.pythonlabs.com    (commercial home page)

If you do not have access to the Internet readily available, all three versions (source code and binaries) are available on the CD-ROM in the back of the book. The CD-ROM also features the complete online documentation sets viewable via offline browsing or as archive files which can be installed on hard disk. All of the code samples in the book are there as well as the Online Resources appendix section (featured as the Python “hotlist”).
