XML Processing XML is a portable, open source language that allows programmers to develop applications that can be read by other applications, regardless of operating system and/or developmental language.   What is XML? The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language much like HTML or SGML. This is recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium and available as an open standard. XML is extremely useful for keeping track of small to medium amounts of data without requiring a SQL-based backbone.   XML Parser Architectures and APIs The Python standard library provides a minimal but useful set of interfaces to work with XML. The two most basic and broadly used APIs to XML data are the SAX and DOM interfaces. ·          Simple API for XML (SAX)  − Here, you register callbacks for events of interest and then let the parser proceed through the document.

Python is a general-purpose interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, and high-level programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum during 1985- 1990. Like Perl, Python source code is also available under the GNU General Public License (GPL). This tutorial gives enough understanding on Python programming language. Python - Overview Python is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. Python is designed to be highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other languages use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical constructions than other languages. ·          Python is Interpreted  − Python is processed at runtime by the interpreter. You do not need to compile your program before executing it. This is similar to PERL and PHP. ·          Python is Interactive  − You can actually sit at a Python prompt and interact with the...
