April 21, 20188 yr I noticed when hunting for a Python job that Boeing uses it. Sadly I do not have enough years experience for the job and I am also not a senior programmer, otherwise I would have jumped at it. I know that Python is used a lot in web work, and in higher mathematics. So I assume it's calculating really complex equations? Or is it something else entirely?

Python is used by FSDT in their FSX and P3D addons. Couatl is a python interpreter. See link below. Not sure how Boeing uses it but thought you’d be interested to see an addon developer use it. Maybe you could work for FSDT, lol. http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=16776.0 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator

It's also got a couple of really nice frameworks for web development which is what I want to work in.

CAD and FEA packages like CATIA (a common aircraft design package from Dassault) use scripting languages like Python. Here's one example: http://ifcuriousthenlearn.com/blog/2015/06/10/catia-and-simulia-scripting-and-automation-with-python/
April 24, 20188 yr I was thinking the same, they likely use it in Manufacturing Engineering operations and other production/logistics related operations. Matthew Kane I'm Dyslexic, what's an error to you is not to me
