Let me start off by saying what is nice about Python:
- The philosophy of "one correct way to do things."
- Easy to learn (at the start).
- Pretty complete standard libraries.
- A huge ecosystem of good third-party libraries.
- Forced indentation. It's a mixed bag, but I've worked with too many junior developers who would never have indented otherwise.
- The
import
system makes it easy to trace the filepath for any dependency.
