What is Python?

Python is an object-oriented, high-level programming language with integrated dynamic semantics primarily for web and app development.

Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development. Python’s simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Developers can read and translate Python code much easier than other languages. 

What can Python do?

  • Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
  • Python can be used to create workflows.
  • Python can connect to database systems.
  • 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 You Should Use Python

Readable Code

Python allow you to express concepts without writing additional code. At the same time, Python, unlike other programming languages, emphasizes on code readability, and allows you to use English keywords instead of punctuations. You can use Python to build custom applications without writing additional code. 

Compatible

Python allows you to run the same code on multiple platforms without recompilation. Hence, you are not required to recompile the code after making any alteration. This feature makes it easier for you to make changes to the code without increasing development time.

Flexible

As a dynamically typed language, Python is really flexible. You’ll have more flexibility solving problems using different methods. Furthermore, Python is also more forgiving of errors, so you’ll still be able to compile and run your program until you hit the problematic part.

Professional

Python is also used to build professional-quality software.
