Python is a dynamic object-oriented, general purpose programming language which runs on many different computer platforms and mobile devices. Python is open source software and is published under an OSI-approved license. Python aims to be a language that is efficient, coherent, readable, and fun to use. Because Python is an interpreted language, Python programs run immediately without the need for lengthy compile and link steps.
