Definition
- Python is a remarkably powerful dynamic programming language that is used in a wide variety of application domains. Python is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Ruby, Scheme or Java. Some of its key distinguishing features include: * very clear, readable syntax * strong introspection capabilities * intuitive object orientation * natural expression of procedural code * full modularity, supporting hierarchical packages * exception-based error handling * very high level dynamic data types * extensive standard libraries and third party modules for virtually every task * extensions and modules easily written in C, C++ (or Java for Jython, or .NET languages for IronPython) * embeddable within applications as a scripting interface Summary Provided By: http://www.python.org/about/ (en)
