Python is one of the most powerful programming languages, often compared to Java, Ruby or Perl. It was developed to help programmers write software faster than other commonly used languages and to minimize the time necessary for code maintenance.

Here are the main key points:

• Much like Java, Python apps can run on all operating systems (Windows, Unix, Linux, Mac)
• It’s free, you can use it to develop commercial applications or personal programs, your choice
• It’s an object oriented language
• Very fast to learn for any programmer that has medium OOP experience
• Integrate modules created in other languages
• Impressive library of objects and functions you can use

If you want to be more productive and write programs that don’t need a lot of maintenance, download Python and start coding now.
