#What can Python do?
#Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
#Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
#Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and modify files.
#Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics.
#Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready software development.
#Why Python?
#Python works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc).
#Python has a simple syntax similar to the English language.
#Python has syntax that allows developers to write programs with fewer lines than some other programming languages.
#Python runs on an interpreter system, meaning that code can be executed as soon as it is written. This means that prototyping can be very quick.
#Python can be treated in a procedural way, an object-orientated way or a functional way.
#Good to know
#The most recent major version of Python is Python 3, which we shall be using in this tutorial. 
# However, Python 2, although not being updated with anything other than security updates, is still quite popular.
#In this tutorial Python will be written in a text editor. It is possible to write Python in an Integrated Development Environment, 
# such as Thonny, Pycharm, Netbeans or Eclipse which are particularly useful when managing larger collections of Python files.
#Python Syntax compared to other programming languages
#Python was designed for readability, and has some similarities to the English language with influence from mathematics.
#Python uses new lines to complete a command, as opposed to other programming languages which often use semicolons or parentheses.
#Python relies on indentation, using whitespace, to define scope; such as the scope of loops, functions and classes. 
# Other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose.
