Note: because Python uses whitespace for structure, do not format long code examples with leading whitespace, instead use <nowiki><pre></pre></nowiki> tags, or, preferably, <nowiki><lang ruby></lang></nowiki> tags. This will make it easier to copy code into and out of the wiki. Example:

Listed below are all of the tasks on Rosetta Code which have been solved using Python.
Try this language on Codepad.

From the official Python website: "Python is a dynamic object-oriented programming language that can be used for many kinds of software development."

It is easy to create clean bug-free programs in Python due to the motto: "Errors should never pass silently." Python source files (.py files) are typically compiled to an intermediate bytecode language (.pyc files) and executed by a Python Virtual Machine.

Note: because Python uses whitespace for structure, do not format long code examples with leading whitespace, instead use <pre></pre> tags, or, preferably, <lang python></lang> tags. This will make it easier to copy code into and out of the wiki. Example: <lang python> print 'this line must not have leading indentation!' if True:

 print 'example: ', foo(3), len(bar)
