History of Python:
Last month, the guy who started – Python Guido Van Rossum – stepped down from his position as the ‘Benevolent Dictator for Life’ of the project. The Dutch computer scientist, who began developing Python for a Christmas project, wanted to create a programming language that was easy to follow and had repositories of code that programmers could simply build on instead of coding from scratch every time. He decided to name it Python (after the British comedy group – Monty Python) and called the library Cheese Shop. Today, Python is arguably the best programming language in the world.
