In this article you will learn about some of the reasons for what is the need to learn python programming language.
Although there are many programming languages, you might be thinking why I should choose Python over the other languages. Following are some of the reasons why you need to learn python programming:
Contents
Software quality
Python code is designed to be readable, and hence reusable and maintainable much more than traditional scripting languages. Python has deep support for more advanced software reuse mechanisms, such as object-oriented (OO) and function programming.
Developer productivity
Python code is typically one-third to one-fifth the size of equivalent C++ or Java code. That means there is less to type, less to debug, and less to maintain after the fact.
Program portability
Most Python programs run unchanged on all major computer platforms. Porting Python code between Linux and Windows, for example, is usually just a matter of copying a script’s code between machines.
Support Libraries
Python comes with a large collection of prebuilt and portable functionality, known as the standard library. This library supports an array of application-level programming tasks, from text pattern matching to network scripting.
Python’s third-party domain offers tools for website construction, numeric programming, serial port access, game development, and much more. The NumPy extension, for instance, has been described as a free and more powerful equivalent to the Matlab numeric programming system.
Component Integration
Python scripts can easily communicate with other parts of an application, using a variety of integration mechanisms. Python code can invoke C and C++ libraries, can be called from C and C++ programs, can integrate with Java and .NET components.
