let's talk about python what is it how
does it work and how you can get started
today all of that and more in two
minutes start the timer
python is a prevalent general purpose
programming language often used for
machine learning and data analysis
python was created by Guido van Rossum
and was first released on February 20th
1991. this language is so influential
that in 1999 the Zen of python was
released which is a guiding set of
principles for using python in the
upmost Mr Miyagi way there are numerous
reasons why this language is hotter than
the Backstreet Boys were in 1997. the
first being that python is very readable
like it states in the Zen of python
simple is better than complex and that's
exactly what the language mirrors python
can also handle a multitude of different
jobs for machine learning to data
analytics web development testing and so
on there is no need to debate how great
this language is but how can we use it
you can download python on the official
getting started with python page once
downloaded creating a file with python
is as easy as naming the file and ending
it with DOT py these files are also
referred to as modules then all you need
to do is print hello world and there you
go you can brag to all your friends that
you are the next Bill Gates
you have probably heard of interpreted
versus compiled right well python is an
interpreted language which means the
source code is converted into bytecode
that is then executed by the python
virtual machine this equates to python
being extremely fast to develop but not
so fast during the execution step since
the code is not directly compiled and
executed but why should we learn python
probably the most important answer to
that is just how beginner friendly the
language is if you're brand new to web
development my recommendation is either
Learn Python or JavaScript you can't go
wrong with either as we mentioned before
python is also extremely versatile you
can do so many different tasks with just
one language lastly python developers
are extremely in demand there are 36 000
job postings on ZipRecruiter at this
current moment for entry-level python
developers if you want to Learn Python
and fully Master one of the most
relevant languages in the world of
development check out zero to mastery's
complete python developer bootcamp
course well you'll go from beginner to
expert
