# - Find python interpreter
# This module finds if Python interpreter is installed and determines where the
# executables are. This code sets the following variables:
#
#  PYTHONINTERP_FOUND         - Was the Python executable found
#  PYTHON_EXECUTABLE          - path to the Python interpreter
#
#  PYTHON_VERSION_STRING      - Python version found e.g. 2.5.2
#  PYTHON_VERSION_MAJOR       - Python major version found e.g. 2
#  PYTHON_VERSION_MINOR       - Python minor version found e.g. 5
#  PYTHON_VERSION_PATCH       - Python patch version found e.g. 2
#
# The Python_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS variable can be used to specify a list of
# version numbers that should be taken into account when searching for Python.
# You need to set this variable before calling find_package(PythonInterp).
