In the Python community, van Rossum is known as a "Benevolent Dictator For Life" (BDFL), meaning that he continues to oversee the Python development process, making decisions where necessary.  He was employed by Google from 2005 until December 7th 2012, where he spent half his time developing the Python language.  In January 2013, van Rossum started working for Dropbox. [PAR] [TLE] Python (programming language) [SEP] Python is a widely used high-level programming language for general-purpose programming, created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991.  An interpreted language, Python has a design philosophy that emphasizes code readability (notably using whitespace indentation to delimit code blocks rather than curly brackets or keywords), and a syntax that allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than might be used in languages such as C++ or Java.  The language provides constructs intended to enable writing clear programs on both a small and large scale.
