- Created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991.
- Has a design philosophy that emphasizes code readability, notably using significant whitespace.
- Provides constructs that enable clear programming on both small and large scales.
- Features a dynamic type system and automatic memory management.
- Supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative, functional and procedural, and has a large and comprehensive standard library.
- Is simpler to use, available on Windows, Mac OS X, and Unix operating systems, and will help you get the job done more quickly.

Installing Python
If your operating system does not provide you with a Python package, you can download an installer from the Python official website https://www.python.org/downloads/.
Installing Python packages
- Packages are available in a public repository, from where anybody can download them and install them.
- The official Python package repository is called PyPI, which stands for Python Package Index.
- Installing a package from PyPI is very simple, because Python comes with a tool called pip that does this work.
