Interesting Facts Of Python Programming

The Top 05 Most Interesting Python Programming Facts You Should Know are listed below –

1. Python began as a personal project.

Guido Van Rossum, the founder of Python, was searching for a hobby project to keep him busy during the week leading up to Christmas in December 1989. He had considered creating a new scripting language that was a descendant of ABC that would appeal to Unix/C programmers. Python was the name he came up with.

2. What is the root of the word Python?

The name of the language comes from the famous British comedy troupe Monty Python (from the 1970s). Monty Python's Flying Circus is a favourite of Guido's. He called the project ‘Python' because he was in an enjoyable mood. Isn't that a fascinating Python fact?

3. Python's Different Flavors

Python comes in a variety of flavours:

• CPython - CPython is the most widely used Python implementation, written in C.
• Jython - Jython is a Java language that compiles to bytecode.
• IronPython - IronPython is a Python-based extensibility layer for.NET frameworks, written in C#.
• Brython - Brython is a browser-based Python interpreter.
• RubyPython - RubyPython is a Python-Ruby parser bridge.
• PyPy - PyPy is a Python-based programming language.
• MicroPython- MicroPython is a Python interpreter that runs on a microcontroller.

4. JavaScript was inspired by Python.

Python is one of the nine languages that inspired JavaScript's architecture. AWK, C, Java, Scheme, Lua, Perl, HyperTalk, and Self are among the others.

5. Python allows you to make multiple assignments in a single sentence.

In Python, you can use a single statement to assign the same value to multiple variables. It also allows you to allocate values to several variables at the same time.

This also means that switching in Python is faster and only requires one line of code:

Syntax:

----------------------------------------

>>> x,y=2,3

>>> x,y=y,x

>>> print (x,y)

3 2

------------------------------------------
