Currently, it is maintained by the Python Software Foundation (PSF). The PSF also host an annual Python Conference ( PyCon ). Python.PH is a nonprofit organization based on the Philippines that is recognized by the PSF. Python.PH holds initiatives to promote Python such as workshop, user meetups, a job board, and PyCon.PH. Introduction
One of the most popular programming languages in the world, has created everything from Netflix’s recommendation algorithm to the software that controls self-driving cars. Python is a general-purpose language, which means it’s designed to be used in a range of applications, including data science, software and web development, automation, and generally getting stuff done. Introduction
Python is used in GIS programming. It is used as a scripting language for ArcGIS, and for Quantum GIS. It's used in everything from machine learning to building websites and software testing. It can be used by developers and non-developers alike. Python is commonly used for developing websites and software, task automation, data analysis, and data visualization. Since it’s relatively easy to learn, Python has been adopted by many non-programmers such as accountants and scientists, for a variety of everyday tasks, like organizing finances.

Using the Python Shell Think of the Python shell as a way to peer within running Python code. It places you inside of a running instance of Python, into which you can feed programming code; at the same time, Python will do what you have asked it to do and will show you a little bit about how it responds to its environment.
