>Python is a language written in C, that compiles on the fly.
>Python is somewhat easy to read and write.
>Python is based on API's and is extremely modular.
>Python is awesome about your variables and a lot of other stuff
they use python for all kinds of things, but mostly for the ease of coding considering that C python runs about 20x slower then C
there is a lot of things about python that make it vary nice to use.
what takes 5 lines to full functions to do in C take, often can be done with 1 line in python.
For instance, to say "Hello World!" as a python program looks like this...
and then you save it as file.py double click it and boom! your done, you just coded and ran a program.
for a small tutorial i found this that is decent
