Python is a widely used high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C++ or Java. The language provides constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale.

We provide some meta packages for convenience. To get a CPython flavour, use

conda install cpython

To get the freethreading build (i.e. without the Global Interpreter Lock - GIL)

conda install python-freethreading

To get the default build (i.e. with the GIL)

conda install python-gil

To enable the use of the experimental JIT compiler in CPython

conda install python-jit

or set the environment variable PYTHONJIT=1. Note that the JIT support is available for x8664 builds only.
