Python is a general purpose, multi-paradigm programming language with a strong focus on readability implemented by Guido van Rossum in the late 1980's.
Python has a unique philosophy described in a rather humorous way in the document Zen of Phython. Here are a few points found in that document:
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
In order to master a programming language a programmer must go beyond its mere syntax, but actually embrace the philosophy and paradigm(s) the language is founded on. I recommend you to read Zen of Python if you haven't done so and think about it as you program with this language.
