Python - Step by Step

Why learn Python Programming?

Python is a simple and flexible programming language. It makes it easier for beginners to get started in the world of programming, but it also offers a wide range of applications for advanced programmers and programming experts.

Furthermore, Python is one of the most popular programming languages, and not without reason. It is characterized, for example, by its good and simple structure and the easy readability of the code. Python also does not use brackets or semicolons, which can unnecessarily burden the code and often lead to sources of errors.

Since Python can be used in a wide variety of ways, it is used in many large and well-known companies such as Google, Netflix, Amazon, Spotify, etc. But Python also takes on important tasks in research and science such as complex calculations, data analysis and much more. Even the American space agency NASA uses Python for its calculations.
