I have been looking at the different packages for python on android and IOS as i am going to be upgrading my phone soon.
However, i dont know which OS to go with. For android they have the SL4A package, but for IOS they have their equivilent. However, im stuck on which to go for. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?
I know its kind of a stupid question, however im just getting into mobile development since they allowed scripting languages on the mobile platform.
I had been on the lookut for Python on iOS for sometime. About 2-months ago, one one released to the iTunes app store — http://pythonforios.com/ and it is fantastic! It includes the complete set of Python 2.7.2 documentation — which alone is worth the $3 price.
It’s a bit of a challenge to code any serious apps (which I suspect is the result of the developer having to comply w/ Apple’s app guidelines), but it is a perfect place to test ideas from a train or airport (when you are without a laptop).
1 caveat — I’ve only tried it on an iPad. It could be a bit cramped screen real-estate on an iphone.
