PYTHON

Python is a general purpose interpreted,interactive,object-oriented, and high level programming


language.It was created by Guido van Rossum in 1985-1990.Python is designed to be highly readable.It
uses English keywords frequently whereas other languages use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactic
constructions than other languages.

Python is said to have succeeded, the ABC Programming Language, which had interfacing with the
Amoeba Operating System and had the feature of exception handling.

However, it had few complaints which needed to be addressed.

So, Guido Van Russom took the syntax of ABC along with some of its good features and tried to fix its
issues. In this process he created a good scripting language that removed all the flaws of previous
language. The language python was finally released in 1991.

The inspiration for the name came from BBC’s TV show –‘Monty Python’s Flying Circus’, as the creator
of Python – Guido Van Russom – was a bif=g fan of TV show and also he wanted a short, unique and
slightly mysterious name for his invention And that’s how the name came to be “Python”.
