what is python?

Answer Posted / lakshman

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented
programming language. It incorporates modules, exceptions,
dynamic typing, very high level dynamic data types, and
classes. Python combines remarkable power with very clear
syntax. It has interfaces to many system calls and
libraries, as well as to various window systems, and is
extensible in C or C++. It is also usable as an extension
language for applications that need a programmable
interface. Finally, Python is portable: it runs on many Unix
variants, on the Mac, and on PCs under MS-DOS, Windows,
Windows NT, and OS/2.
