Distribution Package Nomenclature
#1
Howdy,
I have just started to study Python in my old age.
As I understand things, Python is named after Monty Python and at times I do see Monty Python-ish references in searching around for Python info.
However, I also see things Python Snake-ish. Say like the cover of PYTHON CRASH COURSE

Evidently the eggs distribution things came from the Snakeish aspect of the language. But where in the world did Wheels come from?
Spamcan or Cheesebox I could see, but wheels? I must have missed something.

It is said to be a reference to Monty Python's wheel of cheese.

Excellent
