WHY PYTHON?

There are many programming languages out there in the programming world. But the reason for choosing the python is…

Simple & Easy To Learn
Python’s Popularity & High Salary
Artificial Intelligence
Computer Graphics
Web Development
Data Science
Huge community
Cross-Platform and Open Source

1. Simple & Easy To Learn

Python is extremely simple and easy to learn. It is a very powerful language and it closely resembles the English language!

So, what contributes to its simplicity? Python is

Free & open source
High-level
Interpreted
Blessed with a large community

Furthermore, in Python, you don’t have to deal with a complex syntax, you can refer to the below

If you have to print ‘hello world’, you have to write above three lines whereas, in Python, just one line is sufficient to print “hello world”. It’s that SIMPLE!

The simplicity of the code makes the best suit for beginners. Even though Python is an easy programming language for beginners, it has all of the power and resources necessary to get advanced work done.

2. Python’s Popularity & High Salary

Python engineers have some of the highest salaries in the industry. The average salary of a Python Developer in the United States is approximately $116,028 per year. (LKR.1840000 monthly)

Also, Python has a strong spike in popularity over the last 1year. Refer the below screenshot taken from Google Trends.

You can notice the growth and which is on the trend.

3. Artificial Intelligence

AI is the next huge development in the tech world. You can actually make a machine mimic the human brain which has the power to think, analyze and make decisions.

Furthermore, libraries such as Keras and TensorFlow bring machine learning functionality into the mix.

It gives the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. Also, we have libraries such as OpenCV that help computer vision or image recognition.

4. Computer Graphics

Python is largely used in small, large, online or offline projects. It is used to build GUI and desktop applications. It uses the ‘Tkinter‘ library to provide a fast & easy way to create applications.

It is also used in game development whereas you can write the logic of using a module ‘pygame’ which also runs on android devices.

With python’s graphics, we can go through many career paths as...

Desktop application development.
Mobile application development.
Game development.

5. Web Development

Python has an array of frameworks for developing websites. The popular frameworks are Django, Flask, Pylons etc. Since these frameworks are written in Python, it's the core reason which makes the code a lot faster and stable.

You can also perform web scraping where you can fetch details from any other websites. You will also be impressed as many websites such as Instagram, bit bucket, Pinterest is built on these frameworks only.

6. Data Science

Python is the leading language of many data scientists. For years, academic scholars and private researchers were using the MATLAB language for scientific research but it all started to change with the release of Python numerical engines such as ‘Numpy’ and ‘Pandas’.

Python also deals with the tabular, matrix as well as statistical data and it even visualizes it with popular libraries such as ‘Matplotlib’ and ‘Seaborn‘.

7. Huge community

You need a community to learn new technology and friends are your biggest asset when it comes to learning a programming language. You often get stuck with one or other issue and that time you need a helping hand.

Thanks to Google, you can find the solution to any Python-related problem in minutes. Communities like StackOverflow also bring many Python experts together to help newcomers.

8. Cross-Platform and Open Source

It’s been more than 20 years since this language has been running cross-platform and open source. No matter in which operating system you are working on. Be it Linux, Windows or macOS, Python code works on every platform. Another remarkable thing about Python is that it’s supported by decades of bug-squashing and kink-straightening which ensures that its code works as intended whenever the user runs it.
