Python help - matalog - 05-16-2022 08:15 PM

I'm going to have a look at programming in Python on the Prime, just some questions:

1. Should I expect to get the ability to use arbitrarily large integers?

2. How do I use libraries or modules that would be called in python e.g. "import matplotlib.pyplot as plt" how can I get that matplotlib mentione to work with my program?

3. Or am I limited to the commands I can find on the Prime itself, in the Python app Cmds menu?

4. Is there a set of documentation on programming the Prime using Python, so that I do not have to bother with common questions?

5. Is there even a starter guide that may help starting out?

how about a search?
e.g. https://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/search.php?action=results&sid=126cb24c1687f750c0d49f0bb745552f&sortby=lastpost&order=desc

hint: it's micropython, not full python.
this means: only the libraries are available, which are provided with micropython on the HP-Prime.

edit: link for search modified
