XML parser can be implemented in pure Python.

No, random have C implemented some basic methods only for speed. It uses time() system function for initial seeding, but time() is accessible from pure Python too. Some OS-specific modules (pwd, grp, spwd, resource, ossaudiodev, etc) can be implemented in pure Python on some platforms (using I/O and ioctl on special files in /etc, /dev or /proc). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16651> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
