PyQt5 简介
本教程的目的是带领你入门PyQt5。教程所有代码都在Linux上测试通过。(PyQt4 教程)[http://zetcode.com/gui/pyqt4/]是关于PyQt4的教程，PyQt4是一个与Python（同时支持2和3）绑定的的Qt库。
关于 PyQt5
PyQt5 是Digia的一套Qt5与python绑定的应用框架。同时支持2.x和3.x。本教程使用的是3.x。Qt库是最强大的GUI库之一 ，官方网站是www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/news。PyQt5是的Riverbank Computing产品。
PyQt5 is implemented as a set of Python modules. It has over 620 classes and 6000 functions and methods. It is a multiplatform toolkit which runs on all major operating systems, including Unix, Windows, and Mac OS. PyQt5 is dual licensed. Developers can choose between a GPL and a commercial license.
PyQt5's classes are divided into several modules, including the following:
QtCore QtGui QtWidgets QtMultimedia QtBluetooth QtNetwork QtPositioning Enginio QtWebSockets QtWebKit QtWebKitWidgets QtXml QtSvg QtSql QtTest The QtCore module contains the core non GUI functionality. This module is used for working with time, files and directories, various data types, streams, URLs, mime types, threads or processes. The QtGui contains classes for windowing system integration, event handling, 2D graphics, basic imaging, fonts and text. The QtWidgets module contains classes that provide a set of UI elements to create classic desktop-style user interfaces. The QtMultimedia contains classes to handle multimedia content and APIs to access camera and radio functionality. The QtBluetooth module contains classes to scan for devices and connect and interact with them. The QtNetwork module contains the classes for network programming. These classes facilitate the coding of TCP/IP and UDP clients and servers by making the network programming easier and more portable. The QtPositioning contains classes to determine a position by using a variety of possible sources, including satellite, Wi-Fi, or a text file. The Enginio module implements the client-side library for accessing the Qt Cloud Services Managed Application Runtime. The QtWebSockets module contains classes that implement the WebSocket protocol. The QtWebKit contains classes for a web browser implementation based on the WebKit2 library. The QtWebKitWidgets contains classes for a WebKit1 based implementation of a web browser for use in QtWidgets based applications. The QtXml contains classes for working with XML files. This module provides implementation for both SAX and DOM APIs. The QtSvg module provides classes for displaying the contents of SVG files. Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics and graphical applications in XML. The QtSql module provides classes for working with databases. The QtTest contains functions that enable unit testing of PyQt5 applications.
PyQt4 and PyQt5 differences
The PyQt5 is not backward compatible with PyQt4; there are several significant changes in PyQt5. However, it is not very difficult to adjust older code to the new library. The differences are, among others, the following:
Python modules have been reorganized. Some modules have been dropped (QtScript), others have been split into submodules (QtGui, QtWebKit). New modules have been introduced, including QtBluetooth, QtPositioning, or Enginio. PyQt5 supports only the new-style signal and slots handlig. The calls to SIGNAL() or SLOT() are no longer supported. PyQt5 does not support any parts of the Qt API that are marked as deprecated or obsolete in Qt v5.0. Python
python logo Python is a general-purpose, dynamic, object-oriented programming language. The design purpose of the Python language emphasizes programmer productivity and code readability. Python was initially developed by Guido van Rossum. It was first released in 1991. Python was inspired by ABC, Haskell, Java, Lisp, Icon, and Perl programming languages. Python is a high-level, general purpose, multiplatform, interpreted language. Python is a minimalistic language. One of its most visible features is that it does not use semicolons nor brackets. It uses indentation instead. There are two main branches of Python currently: Python 2.x and Python 3.x. Python 3.x breaks backward compatibility with previous releases of Python. It was created to correct some design flaws of the language and make the language more clean. The most recent version of Python 2.x is 2.7.9, and of Python 3.x is 3.4.2. Python is maintained by a large group of volunteers worldwide. Python is open source software. Python is an ideal start for those who want to learn programming.
This tutorial uses Python 3.x version.
Python programming language supports several programming styles. It does not force a programmer to a specific paradigm. Python supports object-oriented and procedural programming. There is also a limited support for functional programming.
The official web site for the Python programming language is python.org
Perl, Python, and Ruby are widely used scripting languages. They share many similarities and they are close competitors.
