+# The python_helper is used in the Formula class when the user calls
+# `python`, `python2` or `python3`.
+
+# This method has a dual nature. For one, it takes a &block and sets up
+# the ENV such that a Python, as defined in the requirements, is the default.
+# If there are multiple `PythonInstalled` requirements, the block is evaluated
+# once for each Python. This makes it possible to easily support 2.x and
+# 3.x Python bindings without code duplication in formulae.
+# If you need to special case stuff, set :allowed_major_versions.
+# Second, inside the block, a formula author may call this method to access
+# certain convienience methods for the currently selected Python, e.g.
+# `python.site_packages`.
