Overview
Python is a simple, flexible programming language. Along with Javascript, it’s become one of the dominant programming languages, used by coders, companies and governments – for both small and large-scale applications.
So what can you do with Python? Almost anything, really. Python’s source code is available under the GNU Public Licence (GPL) and can be customised in all sorts of interesting ways. Google uses Python to crawl webpages. You can build Android apps with Python. Pixar has even used it to power CGI films.
Python is also one of the languages driving cutting-edge AI development (in 2015, an Oxford student built a simple neural network using just nine lines of Python code). It’s this simplicity, combined with robust potential, that makes Python such a useful language. It’s great for beginners and coding experts alike.
