What is Pythonistas?
Pythonistas are the ones that always think of new ideas and create new things using Python, they seem to be the ones who are likely the leaders talking about Python programming.
Why do we love Python?
Now there are a ton of computer programming languages for you to choose from. There is Python, Java, C, C++, C#, Javascript, PHP, and a lot more.
Python is my favorite programming language in the world. Just like me and you, there are a lot of people who love Python.
Here is an interesting fact: Python was googled more times than Kim Kardashian in 2019. So, that means there are millions of Python fans around the world. Do you know why Python is so loved all around the world?
There are several reasons behind the popularity of Python programming language. But, the major reason is the simplicity of the language.
Python is so simple compared to other programming languages. I hate the language Java just because it is so complex. Just look at the program to display ‘hello world’ in both these languages.
First, let’s look at the program in Java.
class Main{
public static void main(String[] args){
System.out.println("Hello World");
}
}
Now, here is the Python code.
print('hello world')
You can see the difference. I don’t want to completely go against the Java language. Java is a great programming language. But for a beginner, it is way too easy to learn Python than any other programming language in the world.
The syntactical difficulty level of Python is much lower. You don’t have to worry about each little tiny detail to start with. That is why it is becoming the most used language around the globe.
Python is literally how you’re typing something in English, it does not need a curly brace, a semi-colon, or a squiggly bracket. The actual focus is on the semantics not on the syntax.
Due to its elegance and simplicity, Python is now used as the introductory programming language to teach students in many top universities across the globe. Also, Python developers make more money compared to those people who use other programming languages.
Python is also a powerful language. It has many applications such as web development, machine learning, and a lot more. Python provides several machine learning libraries such as tensorflow, scikit-learn, etc. Hence, it is widely used for machine learning and artificial intelligence purposes.
