This chapter provided a primer to the Python scripting language. It discussed the basics of Python syntax, how to implement Python on your system, Python's object-oriented nature, and how to troubleshoot CGI code written in Python. That, put together with previous chapters, gives you an idea how to create CGI code in Perl and Python. Chapter 27 covers using other languages for CGI, and Chapter 28 gives you several examples of Perl and Python CGI scripts.
