About Python
Python is a high-level and rapid programming language first released in 1991. Python can be used for many kinds of software development including advanced Web applications, desktop applications and scientific computing. High-profile uses of Python have included creating a workflow automation system for Space Shuttle mission design, Python is used to create computer graphics production pipelines, 'glue' for the thousands of computers and hundreds of software components used to create films such as Star Wars, and the popular YouTube video sharing website is written in Python.
Python is a cross-platform language, which means that once a programmer creates an application, it can run unchanged on Windows, Apple Mac OS X, Linux, Unix, Sun Solaris, Nokia smart phones and many other types of computer and device.
