My dept at work is reviewing all the different programming languages that we use and Python is kind of on the chopping block because I'm the only one using it so far. Basically, it would mean that no new development would be done in Python.
What I need to do is show that Python is a good tool and it should be in our toolbox. The other language that would be used instead of Python is Perl. Perl is currently used more in our dept. I can't say I'm a big fan of Perl, but I'll use if I have to. I'd prefer to use Python. Here's some of the reason's I think we should still use Python, and maybe I could get some other reasons from you guys. Note: We primarily use Perl and Python for web application development, but it also used on servers too. - Clean easy to read syntax - Easy to learn - Object Oriented as needed - Large community - Multi-platform - Fits in your head - Batteries included - Large library(Cheese Shop) Anything else?
