Introduction to Python

Python is a simple, general-purpose, high-level, interpreted, and object-oriented programming language. It was created by Guido Van Rossum in 1991. Python syntax is very simple and easy to understand, making it ideal for beginners. It’s used in web development, data science, AI, deep learning, and more.

• General-purpose: A language capable of creating all types of programs.
• High-Level Language (HLL): Syntax close to human language.
• Interpreted: Executes code directly without compiling into machine code.
• Object-Oriented Programming (OOPs): Uses concepts like classes, inheritance, and objects to model real-world entities.

Guido Van Rossum is a Dutch programmer known as the creator of Python. He named the language after the BBC comedy “Monty Python’s Flying Circus.”

• High-level, human-readable syntax
• Easy to learn and use
• Open Source and free
• Supports Object-Oriented Programming
• Supports GUI programming for games and apps

• Deep Learning
• Machine Learning
• Data Science
• Artificial Intelligence
• Software Development

• Slower than compiled languages
• Limited database access
• Not ideal for Android development
• High memory consumption
• Runtime errors appear only during execution

So this was all about the basic introduction of Python programming language. Continue reading the next topic for more concepts.
