Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
language. It incorporates modules, exceptions, dynamic typing, very
high-level dynamic data types, and classes. It supports multiple
programming paradigms beyond object-oriented programmings, such as
procedural and functional programming. Python combines remarkable
power with very clear syntax. It has interfaces to many system calls
and libraries, as well as to various window systems, and is extensible
in C or C++. It is also usable as an extension language for
applications that need a programmable interface. Finally, Python is
portable: it runs on many Unix variants including Linux and macOS, and
on Windows.
Python is a high-level general-purpose programming language that can
be applied to many different classes of problems.
The language comes with a large standard library that covers areas
such as string processing (regular expressions, Unicode, calculating
differences between files), Internet protocols (HTTP, FTP, SMTP, XMLRPC,
POP, IMAP, CGI programming), software engineering (unit testing,
logging, profiling, parsing Python code), and operating system
interfaces (system calls, filesystems, TCP/IP sockets).
It is still common to start students with a procedural and statically
typed languages such as Pascal, C, or a subset of C++ or Java. Students
may be better served by learning Python as their first language.
Python has a very simple and consistent syntax and a large standard
library and, most importantly, using Python in a beginning programming
course lets students concentrate on important programming skills such
as problem decomposition and data type design. With Python, students
can be quickly introduced to basic concepts such as loops and
procedures. They can probably even work with user-defined objects in
their very first course.
For a student who has never programmed before, using a statically
typed language seems unnatural. It presents additional complexity that
the student must master and slows the pace of the course. The students
are trying to learn to think like a computer, decompose problems,
design consistent interfaces, and encapsulate data. While learning to
use a statically typed language is important in the long term, it is
not necessarily the best topic to address in the students’ first
programming course.
Many other aspects of Python make it a good first language. Like Java,
Python has a large standard library so that students can be assigned
programming projects very early in the course that do something.
Assignments aren’t restricted to the standard four-function calculator
and check balancing programs. By using the standard library, students
can gain the satisfaction of working on realistic applications as they
learn the fundamentals of programming. Using the standard library also
teaches students about code reuse. Third-party modules such as PyGame
are also helpful in extending the student’s reach.
Python’s interactive interpreter enables students to test language
features while they’re programming. They can keep a window with the
interpreter running while they enter their program’s source in another
window. If they can’t remember the methods for a list, they can do
something like this:
