Python is a general-purpose programming language that was named after Monty Python. It is simple and incredibly readable since it closely resembles the English language. But still, why should you use Python?
Python is a language that finds use in nearly every domain possible. Its official website will give you an overview of this. In addition, its simplicity, as well as the way it ensures tasks can be performed using fewer lines of code, is encouraging many developers across the world to take it up.
Currently, there are two common versions of Python: Version 2 and 3 and later. Apart from some syntactical differences, they are pretty similar. As support for version 2 would fade over time, our course supports version 3.
To install Python 3 on your own system, follow the steps in the document provided at the end of the next segment.
