And what about the name? Python? Yes, you guessed it right. It was taken from the BBC TV show Monty Pythons Flying Circus. 

  

Technical background 

Python 2.0 was released in October 2000 and has been widely adopted since. The next generation of Python was version 3.0 released in 2008. Because of a complete redesign, the Python 3.0 broke backward compatibly, and a lot of Python 2.0 code cannot run in a Python 3.0 environment unmodified.  

 

Python is a runtime language, which means that the code is compiled in runtime before executed. Note that once compiled, Python stays compiled.  

 

As of January 1, 2020, the Python Software foundation´s core development team will no longer support, update or provide new versions of Python. So, of possible – use Python 3.
