Now let’s talk about why Python is your best first coding language.
Python is one of the easiest programming languages to learn.
Why? Because Python’s syntax is clean and minimalistic, resembling almost a natural language, which makes it straightforward to write and read.
You can accomplish a lot with just a few lines of Python code. Something that would take more lines of code in languages like Java or C++.
Being a high-level language, Python automates many fundamental tasks. Such as memory management, allowing you to focus on what’s important: the functionality of your program.
The second reason is the popularity of Python.
Think about Discord, Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit. They use Python heavily for data structuring and processing, machine learning, and so on. You have no idea how many bad things have you not seen and experienced on the internet thanks to the AI algorithms built with Python.
Now, I know what you’re thinking about, yeah you still see some questionable content but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The rest is weeded out by those AI algorithms serving you only the best content such as the video.
Speaking of the video, you’re watching it right now thanks to Python. The very infrastructure that enables you to stream content, engage in the comments, and as I mentioned earlier, even the recommendation algorithms suggesting this content to you – a lot of it is driven by Python. Python is everywhere.
The third reason – Versatility.
The next reason why Python is your best first coding language is its versatility.
With Python, you can build web apps, video games, cybersecurity solutions, and AI software. You can do network programming, web crapping, scientific research, and literally anything that you’re on to. Whether it’s an indie game or telescope control software, you can build them all with the right Python framework or library.
And finally, Python is backed by an ever-growing, dedicated community. This ensures that Python’s capabilities and the quality of your Python-based software are only going to get better and more efficient.
And that’s a wrap on why Python is an awesome choice for your first programming language.
It’s easy to learn, widely popular, incredibly versatile, and backed by a strong community. Whether you’re into creating web apps, games, or AI, Python makes it possible for you.
With that said, we’re on to the next lecture. See you in the next lesson!
Python Online is an online compiler where you can write, run, and check your code without installing any software.
