About Python
Python is an open source, versatile cross-platform programming language that has a strong presence in diverse software engineering disciplines such as data science, web development, network scripting, and embedded systems. While Python itself may be a deceptively simple language, the vast array of frameworks and tools available for use across a variety of specialized fields make it a formidable tool in the arsenal of any technologist with areas of focus from Machine Learning to Cybersecurity.
