ptpython VS bpython

Ptpython reads from a configuration file where we can specify custom keybindings and the REPL colorscheme. The default configuration file can be copied from prompt-toolkit/ptpython/blob/master/examples/ptpython_config/config.py.

If you like using the REPL, for Python I recommend you try https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython

REPL??? Do you have a very-easy-to-use way of running and testing your code? From vim-slime to nvim sniprun to autocommands with the built in terminal, to an external repl like ptpython (for python obviously). iron.nvim and conjure are two other neovim repl plugins. There are many ways of running the code that you're working on, and having something that makes this really easy for you is pretty essential. (sometimes I use inotifytools on linux to literally just run the script every time I save it.)

I use ptpython for my python repl https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython. I find it very convenient because it has a vim mode, and many vim similarities.

A library like ptpython should be what you're looking for, however this probably isn't an option for an exam setting.

create a repl to the standard that ptpython sets for python (both croissant and ilua leave a lot to be desired)

My bad - the >>> and ... in my post are from an interactive shell session. - so there is an implicit print - which is why you see the output.

https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython is also a good one

Even better than iPython is PTPython, which can be used like a regular python interpreter with cool features.

bpython over built-in Python interpreter

Yeah, also it's worth to mention bpython

I use bpython, its a pretty cool python REPL, try it out

Yeah, mostly I lack time to catch up with Jonathan Slenders works, and have stronger backward compatibility requirements. b=But ptpython and pyipython are both great.

I should also look into Rich and Textual

https://bpython-interpreter.org/ is also another alternative python shell, and of course https://xon.sh

It's a nicer repl for python.

Python comes with IDLE as /usr/bin/idle but it doesn't have a corresponding .desktop file that would let it appear in the application menu. Otherwise, /usr/bin/python has an interactive mode and bpython is a wrapper around that interactive mode that has like syntax highlighting, indenting, undo, etc.

So, in this article, we will discuss bpython-django a fork from bpython that handles Django in a better way, currently it handles Models and can be extended as desired.

Someone posted bpython which I'm pretty ecstatic about but always good to know options.
