You can belearn to use Python and see almost immediate ~~used~~gains ~~for~~in ~~many~~productivity ~~kinds~~and oflower ~~software~~maintenance ~~development~~costs." It is easy to create clean bug-free programs in Python due to the motto: "Errors should never pass silently." Python is an [[wp:Interpreter (computing)\|interpreter]]. Python source files (.py files) are typically compiled to an intermediate [[bytecode]] language (.pyc files) and executed by a Python Virtual Machine. ===Notes=== Because Python uses whitespace for structure, do not format long code examples with leading whitespace, instead use <code><nowiki><pre></pre></nowiki></code> tags, or, preferably, <code><nowiki><syntaxhighlight lang ="python"></~~lang~~syntaxhighlight></nowiki></code> tags. This will make it easier to copy code into and out of the wiki. Example: :<syntaxhighlight lang ="python">print ('this line must not have leading indentation!') if True: ~~print~~ print('example: ', foo(3), len(bar))</~~lang~~syntaxhighlight> Some Python examples may deviate from idiomatic Python because they may be written to work in Python 3.X as well as Python 2.X environments.
