Hello!
I wish to properly cite Python in an academic paper I am writing.
Is there a preferred document etc to cite?
At present, I would use something like
Rossum, Guido van, et al, *The Python Language Reference*, Python
Software Foundation; http://docs.python.org/py3k/reference/index.html
with punctuation adjusted to your target. That url should continue to
work as new versions are released. If you want to cite a particular
version, http://docs.python.org/release/3.2/reference/index.html with
3.2 replaced by x.y as appropriate.
