Abstract :
Python is a suitable language for both learning and real world programming. Python is
a powerful high level, object-oriented programming language created by Guido van
Rossum. In this paper we first introduce you to the python programming
characteristics and features. This paper also discusses about the reasons behind python
being credited as the most fastest growing programming language in the recent times
supported by research done over the articles procured from various magazines and
popular websites. This paper features about the characteristics and most important
features of python language, the types of programming supported by python and its
users and its applications.
Introduction :

Python do not have security attributes (like: public/private/protected), so the program

become simpler and shorted, more strict and understandable. Also Python is very
dynamic so fields/attributes can be created on the fly, which cannot be done in JAVA
or in C++. Polymorphism is nature of Python functions and class methods, unlike C+
+ with its virtual or non-virtual functions. Operator overloading gives extra power for
Python objects, because it can be used for any natural expression, unlike JAVA’s
restricted syntax. Programming indentation in Python plays a great role in program
structure, because of that any program written in Python is easily read and
understood. But in the case of JAVA or C++ every student is trying to make his\her
program shorter, fitting it in one line, or trying to write every statement with same
indentation, which makes the program difficult to be read and understood not only for
the teacher but for the student himself. Python includes wonderful algorithms in its
native libraries. [3] So the student does not need to understand long arithmetic to
make huge calculations. It already exists in native long data type in Python. There are
good tools to sort, find, slice, and join any sequence of data. Sometimes they may not
be so effective, like those which are written in C++ for a specific purpose. But for the
beginners it is not the primary priority. Python has its specific way to store and use
variables, so the programmer no longer needs to define types of the variables, they
will be defined by the values that variables store. Of course it is important to know
how different types of variables are stored in memory, this can be discussed in
lectures, but for the practice it is easier to skip the information about data types. Also
Python has adaptive and intuitive set of keywords and commands that impressively
help students to learn programming.

When computer came to existence in their early years, they needed to be

programmed. Scientists represented a 0 and 1 programming language as the solution,
but it was very difficult and time consuming. This difficulty caused impressive
developments in programming and lead to creating high level languages. Among the
modern high-level languages, Python as a general purpose programming language got
a definite seat among the programmers choice. In this paper, we are going to
introduce the characteristics of Python. In the second section, history will be covered.
Third section is dedicated to introducing Python and its features. In fourth section we
will get into the programs that can be written by Python and as the fifth section,
alternatives and complements of this language are investigated. Final part introduces
applications of Python in real world. Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-
level programming language [1][2][3]. Its design philosophy emphasizes code
readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of
code than would be possible in languages such as C [4][5]. The language provides
constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale Python
supports multiple programming paradigms, including object-oriented, imperative and
functional programming or procedural styles. It features a dynamic type system and
automatic memory management and has a large and comprehensive standard library
Like other dynamic languages, Python is often used as a scripting language, but is
also used in a wide range of non-scripting contexts. Using third-party tools, such as
Py2exe or Pyinstaller [8], Python code can be packaged into standalone executable
programs. Python interpreters are available for many operating systems. CPython, the
reference implementation of Python, is free and open source software and has a
community based development model, as do nearly all of its alternative
implementations. C Python is managed by the non-profit Python Software
Foundation.

Future of Python :
According to the TIOBE index, Python is the 4th most popular programming
language out of 100 With the rise of Ruby on Rails and more recently Node.js,
Python's usage as the main prototyping language for backend web development has
diminished somewhat, especially since it has a fragmented MVC ecosystem.
However, with big data becoming more and more important, Python has become a
skill that is more in demand than ever, especially it can be integrated into web
applications. As an open source project, Python is actively worked on with a moderate
update cycle, pushing out new versions every year or so to make sure it remains
relevant. In terms of search volume for anyone interested in learning Python, it has
skyrocketed to the 1st place when compared to other languages.
