TigerJython

Version

$VERSION$

Welcome

TigerJython is a simple IDE (integrated development environment) for Python. It is based on Jython (Java-Python) and contains all the required libraries to start right away.

An installation of TigerJython is limited to the current folder. TigerJython will create files to save your preferences and facilitate the access to Java-libraries. For a deinstallation it suffices to delete the folder containing TigerJython.

This software is provided 'as-is', without any expressed or implied warranty. In no event will the authors be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this software. It is completely free for non-commercial use.

If you have any suggestions, questions or remarks, please feel free to contact us through our website http://www.tigerjython.com/.

Python and Jython

TigerJython is based on Jython 2.7 and therefore largely compatible to Python 2.7. In contrast to standard-Python (CPython) there are some functions and packages missing, while at the same time alternatives are provided. Because TigerJython runs within Java, you can directly access and use all Java libraries and functions.

Because TigerJython is intended for educational/classroom use, we made some minor changes in the programming language itself. For details, see below.
