What is Python?

Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van


Rossum, and released in 1991.

It is used for:

 web development (server-side),


 software development,
 mathematics,
 system scripting.

What can Python do?


 Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
 Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
 Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and
modify files.
 Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex
mathematics.
 Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready
software development.

Why Python?
 Python works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux,
Raspberry Pi, etc).
 Python has a simple syntax similar to the English language.
 Python has syntax that allows developers to write programs with
fewer lines than some other programming languages.
 Python runs on an interpreter system, meaning that code can be
executed as soon as it is written. This means that prototyping can
be very quick.
 Python can be treated in a procedural way, an object-oriented way
or a functional way.
