Python (programming language)

Python is an interpreted high-level programming language for general-purpose programming . Created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991, Python has a design philosophy that emphasizes code readability , notably using significant whitespace . It provides constructs that enable clear programming on both small and large scales. [26] In July 2018, Van Rossum stepped down as the leader in the language community. [27] [28]

Python is a widely used high-level programming language for general-purpose programming , created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991. An interpreted language , Python has a design philosophy that emphasizes code readability (notably using whitespace indentation to delimit code blocks rather than curly brackets or keywords), and a syntax that allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than might be used in languages such as C++ or Java . [25] [26] It provides constructs that enable clear programming on both small and large scales. [27]
