Python

Python is an open source, high-level programming language created by Guido van Rossum in the late 1980s. It is an interpreted, object-oriented language that can be used to create games, GUIs, and web applications. Python code needs to be processed by an interpreter before being executed by machines. Python is a readable, powerful language that has remained relevant due to its simplicity, efficiency, and ability to run on different platforms.

Python is an open source, high-level programming language developed by Guido van Rossum in the

late 1980s and presently administered by Python Software Foundation. It came from the ABC
language that he helped create early on in his career. Python is a powerful language that you can use
to create games, write GUIs, and develop web applications. It is a high-level language. Reading and
writing codes in Python is much like reading and writing regular English statements. Because they
are not written in machine-readable language, Python programs need to be processed before
machines can run them. Python is an interpreted language. This means that every time a program is
run, its interpreter runs through the code and translates it into machine-readable byte code. Python
is an object-oriented language that allows users to manage and control data structures or objects to
create and run programs. Everything in Python is, in fact, first class. All objects, data types, functions,
methods, and classes take equal position in Python. Programming languages are created to satisfy
the needs of programmers and users for an effective tool to develop applications that impact lives,
lifestyles, economy, and society. They help make lives better by increasing productivity, enhancing
communication, and improving efficiency. Languages die and become obsolete when they fail to live
up to expectations and are replaced and superseded by languages that are more powerful. Python is
a programming language that has stood the test of time and has remained relevant across industries
and businesses and among programmers, and individual users. It is a living, thriving, and highly
useful language that is highly recommended as a first programming language for those who want to
dive into and experience programming. Advantages of Using Python Here are reasons why you
would prefer to learn and use Python over other high level languages: Readability Python programs
use clear, simple, and concise instructions that are easy to read even by those who have no
substantial programming background. Programs written in Python are, therefore, easier to maintain,
debug, or enhance. Higher productivity Codes used in Python are considerably shorter, simpler, and
less verbose than other highlevel programming languages such as Java and C++. In addition, it has
well-designed built-in features and standard library as well as access to third party modules and
source libraries. These features make programming in Python more efficient. Less learning time
Python is relatively easy to learn. Many find Python a good first language for learning programming
because it uses simple syntax and shorter codes. Runs across different platforms Python works on
Windows, Linux/UNIX, Mac OS X, other operating systems and smallform devices. It also runs on
microcontrollers used in appliances, toys, remote controls, embedded devices, and other similar
devices.
