Few programming languages provide you with the flexibility and pure power of Python.
If you’re becoming a professional developer, or are early in your web development career, adding the Python skill set isn’t just a resume embellishment– It’s an empowering language that will allow you to write procedural code in many types of environments and for many uses.
Python is commonly used for server-side programming for complex web applications or as a middle-tier language providing web services or a communication layer with larger e-commerce systems. It’s also a great language for beginners. The clear syntax makes it very easy to learn, and the powerful libraries make all types of programming possible. There are libraries for everything from games and graphics to complex mathematics to network and embedded programming.
