"If you're talking about Java in particular, Python is about the best fit you can get amongst all the other languages. Yet the funny thing is, from a language point of view, JavaScript has a lot in common with Python, but it is sort of a restricted subset. "
(Guido van Rossum)

Python can do many useful things right out of the box, and provides all the basic tools and features that programmers have come to expect of a major programming language.

"I would recommend not wasting any more time on the naming issue. (This is a recurring theme in my posts -- remember, I spent about 0.3 microseconds thinking about whether "Python" would be a good name for a programming language, and I've never regretted it.)
(Guido van Rossum, 25 Nov 1998)

Python and Bash Programming

This course has been held as an online training course since March 2020. Further Information!

This course enables you to kill two birds with one stone. It is a seminar which covers the basic concepts of both the popular Bash shell, also known as the Bourne Again Shell, and the programming language Python. You will learn how to write small shell scripts to master your Linux administration chores and you will acquire the necessary skills to formulate an algorithm in Python. Like most of our other courses, you can book this one for an on-site or an in-house training, e.g. in Switzerland (Zurich), Germany (Hamburg, Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Stuttgart, Lake Constance), Canada (Toronto), England (London), Netherlands (Amsterdam), Austria (Vienna) and France (Paris).
