About Python?
Python is a versatile, high-level programming language known for emphasizing readability and supporting multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative, and functional styles. It features a fully dynamic type system and automatic memory management, making it similar to languages such as Scheme, Ruby, Perl, and Tcl. While commonly used as a scripting language, Python is also widely utilized in non-scripting contexts. Additionally, with the use of third-party tools, Python code can be packaged into standalone executable programs.
