TUTORIAL OF PYTHON

About the Tutorial 

Python can be described as a general purpose, interpreted interoperable, object-oriented as well as a high-level language for programming. It was developed by Guido van Rossum during 1985 between 1985 and 1990. As with Perl, Python source code is also accessible as part of the GNU General Public License (GPL). Python is named in honor of the name of a TV Show called 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' and not named after Python the snake. Python 3.0 was released in 2008. While this version was supposed to be backward compatible however, in the following years some of its most important features were ported back to work with version 2.7. This tutorial provides enough information of the Python 3 version programming language. You can refer to this page to the Python 2 tutorial.
