Overview
Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate systems more effectively. It is often used as a support language for software developers, for build control and management, testing, and in many other ways. It is also used to build ERP and e-commerce systems. Python is a general-purpose interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, and high-level programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum during 1985- 1990. Like Perl, Python source code is also available under the GNU General Public License (GPL). This Course gives enough understanding on Python programming language.
