Python Forum

Hi All.

I wonder if anyone can point me to good resource where i can understand the architecture of python perhaps in block diagram. The thing which im trying to workout, where does individual modules sit in the python overall architecture. For instance low level model sys, os and many others.

Or am I picturing this completely wrongly?
Any advice/pointers would greatly be appreciated.

Many thanks

Python modules are similar to Java packages. They define namespaces where classes and methods are defined.

In general, there isn't a hierarchical architecture where, for example, the sys and os modules sit below everything else. That's not to say, however, that there aren't dependencies between modules.

Thanks mpd for your reply.

Sure - I understand about the module hierarchical architecture. But what about the, Python architecture? Any idea of how its architected etc? The way i'm picturing it right now is, for instance take globals module. If I had python architectural block diagram globals would be one of the blocks and globals module is an interface to access that particular block from the architecture.

Do you see what im trying achieve, by the block diagram?

Many thanks

Python is on github. I don't know if there are some tools to build a visual representation out of this.
