A nice Corona (Covid-19) diagram (labels are in German) about the totally infected people in Bavaria (IMHO much better than the official diagrams from LGL [the source]):

Created with the Canvas class of the Tkinter package for Python. It would be really nice, if we would have Python for the QL. At first a non-GUI version would be nice. But OF COURSE we will need the FULL implementation WITH „Tkinter”!
BTW: Python has slicing (even better than the QL) for strings and lists (a kind of array). There are only a view disadvantages compared to SuperBASIC: Strings are NOT mutable (once set you CANNOT change it - of course you may assign another string to the same variable name). The FOR loop works different (but in most cases right!)... AND no „GO TO” (this is IMHO really a disadvantage, especially as you cannot EXIT from a multiple nested loop out).
BUT, there are a bunch of advantages: Fully object orientated (even with TRUE multiple inheritance, not just cheap Interfaces [which are nothing else than multiple inheritance with a lot of constraints]). Even more extensions than for SuperBASIC AND:
RUNs ON Unix (Linux), Windows, Symbian (successor of the PSION „Organizer” PDA´s), MacIntosh and perhaps even on OS/2 (DUNNO).
If anyone is interested in porting: PLEASE DO _N_O_T_ port the 2.x version! It doesn't get any updates any more since 2020(!). Please port a version of Python at least ≥3.6.

p.s.: I can post a sample program how to "work" with the Canvas class (really a VECTOR graphics class!) if anyone is interested (tested on Windows 10).

Hi,
While Python is available everywhere - in many modern machines - what would be the use of porting is on our antediluviant QLs ? moreover, as you say, it's a moving target.
