PYTHON INTRODUCTION

 

PYTHON INTRODUCTION

Python is a high-level programming language developed by Guido Van Rossum born in 1956 in Haarlem, the Netherlands. Of course, Guido van Rossum did not develop and evolve all the Python components himself, Python was first realeased in 1991. The name of the Python programming language comes from an old BBC television comedy sketch series called
 Monty Python’s Flying Circus.

Since Monty Python is considered one of the two fundamental nutrients to a programmer (the other being pizza), Python’s creator named the language in honor of the TV show. Today Python interpreters are available for many Operating systems including Windows,Linux and apple IOS 

There are several reasons for Python's popularity Its free Python is free to use and distribute and is supported by  community Python interpreter is available for every major platform.

The speed with which Python has spread around the world is a result of the continuous work of thousands (very often anonymous) programmers, testers, users (many of them aren’t IT specialists) and enthusiasts, but it must be said that the very first idea (the seed from which Python sprouted) came to one head — Guido’s.

What makes Python special?

How does it happen that programmers, young and old, experienced and novice, want to use it
How did it happen that large companies adopted Python and implemented their flagship
products using it?

There are many reasons — we’ve listed some of them already, but let’s enumerate them again in a more practical manner:

·         it’s easy to learn
    it’s easy to teach 
    it’s easy to use
    it’s easy to understand
    it’s easy to obtain, install and deploy 

Now, Where Python was using :

Many large companies uses the Python Programming language include NASA, Google YouTube bit Torrent etc.

Python is widely used in Artificial Intelligence Natural language Generation Neural Networks and other advanced fields of computer Technology.

 Python is derived from many other language including ABC, Modula-3, C, C++ Algol 68 small Talk unix shell and other scripting languages. Python programming language is being updated regularly with new features.
