Hi,
I am new to Python. Weeks ago, I was asked about Python questions on an
interview.
Now I want to learn Python, but I do not know what I can do with it on a PC.
Especially I would like to do something interesting instead of some text
search etc.
Python may can do more than I realize now. Could you tell me something on a
PC?
Thanks,

Python is a completely general purpose programming language. It has extensive
libraries that adapt it to tackle almost any programming problem (with the
possible exception of device drivers). Those libraries include several
graphics packages and GUI frameworks, libraries for doing network programming,
for performing heavy-duty numerical analysis (number crunching) and scientific
data analysis, as well as web applications, semantic analysis, statistical
analysis, and which will interface it to any of several databases.
Examples of well-known Python programs running “in the wild” include YouTube
and Bit Torrent.
Well written Python programs (that is, those that use Python’s abstracted OS
services) run equally well on a PC, a Mac, UNIX, and Linux.
