Python Features

• Easy to Learn and Use: Python is easy to learn and use. It is developer-friendly and high level programming language.
• Expressive Language: Python language is more expressive means that it is more understandable and readable.
• Interpreted Language: Python is an interpreted language i.e. interpreter executes the code line by line at a time. This makes debugging easy and thus suitable for beginners.
• Cross-platform Language: Python can run equally on different platforms such as Windows, Linux, Unix and Macintosh etc. So, we can say that Python is a portable language.

• Object-Oriented Language: Python supports object oriented language and concepts of classes and objects come into existence.
• Extensible: It implies that other languages such as C/C++ can be used to compile the code and thus it can be used further in our python code.
• Integrated: It can be easily integrated with languages like C, C++, JAVA etc.
• Large Standard Library: Python has a large and broad library and prvides rich set of module and functions for rapid application development.
• GUI Programming Support: Graphical user interfaces can be developed using Python.

Apart from the above-mentioned features, Python has a big list of good features, few are listed below −

• It supports functional and structured programming methods as well as OOP.
• It can be used as a scripting language or can be compiled to byte-code for building large applications.
• It provides very high-level dynamic data types and supports dynamic type checking.
• It supports automatic garbage collection.
• It can be easily integrated with C, C++, COM, ActiveX, CORBA, and Java.
