Python is a general-purpose very-high-level programming language.

IBM i implementation

There are currently several implementations for IBM i:

  • Native port of Python 2.7 by Per Gummedal, called iSeriesPython, for V5R3 and later
  • PASE port of Python 3.4 by IBM, as Option 2 of 5733-OPS (Open Source for IBM i Product) for 7.1 and later
  • PASE port of Python 2.7 by IBM, as Option 4 of 5733-OPS (Open Source for IBM i Product) for 7.1 and later
  • PASE port of Python 3.6 by IBM, distributed as an RPM package via yum for 7.2 and later
  • PASE port of Python 2.7 by IBM, distributed as an RPM package via yum for 7.2 and later

Additionally, there are AIX ports on Perzl.org which may or may not work in PASE.

The RPM-based distributions are the most up to date and generally considered the easiest to install.

Hello world
