Python Brief Info

Python is a widely used general-purpose programming language that emphasizes readable code over complexity through clear syntax. It supports multiple programming styles like object-oriented and functional programming, has a dynamic type system and automatic memory management, and a large standard library. Python code can run on many operating systems through interpreters or be packaged into standalone executables using third-party tools. The reference CPython implementation is open-source and has a community-based development model.

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language.

[21]HYPERLINK \l "[22] 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.[23]HYPERLINK \l "[24] The language
provides constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale.
[25]
Python supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative
and functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type system and
automatic memory management and has a large and comprehensive standard library.[26]
Python interpreters are available for installation on many operating systems, allowing
Python code execution on a wide variety of systems. Using third-party tools, such as
Py2exe or Pyinstaller,[27] Python code can be packaged into stand-alone executable
programs for some of the most popular operating systems, allowing the distribution of
Python-based software for use on those environments without requiring the installation of
a Python interpreter.
CPython, the reference implementation of Python, is free and open-source software and
has a community-based development model, as do nearly all of its alternative
implementations. CPython is managed by the non-profit Python Software Foundation.
