Knowing these features will make you love Python. So let&#8217;s start!!!<\/p>\n<h3>Features of Python<\/h3>\n<h4>1. Easy<\/h4>\n<p>When we say the word \u2018easy\u2019, we mean it in different contexts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>a. Easy to Code<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Python is very <strong>easy to code <\/strong>as compared to other popular languages like Java and C++.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone can learn <a href=\"https:\/\/pythongeeks.org\/python-syntax\/\"><em><strong>Basic<\/strong> <strong>Python syntax <\/strong><\/em><\/a>in just a few hours. Thus, it is programmer-friendly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>b. Easy to Read<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Being a high-level language, Python code is quite like English. Looking at it, you can tell what the code is supposed to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>c. Short learning curve<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most beginners write their first python program in under an hour.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>d. Fewer lines<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Common tasks need far less typing than Java or C++.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>2. Expressive<\/h4>\n<p>First, let\u2019s learn what expressiveness is. Suppose we have two languages A and B, and all programs that can be made in A can be made in B using local transformations.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are some programs that can be made in B, but not in A, using local transformations. Then, B is said to be more expressive than A.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Python<\/strong> provides us with a myriad of constructs that help us focus on the solution rather than on the syntax.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of the outstanding python features that tell you why you should learn Python.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Free and Open-Source<\/h4>\n<p>Firstly, Python is <strong>freely available<\/strong>. You can download it from the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.python.org\/downloads\/\">Python Official Website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, it is <strong>open-source<\/strong>. This means that its source code is available to the public. You can download it, change it, use it, and distribute it.<\/p>\n<p>This is called <strong>FLOSS(Free\/Libre and Open Source Software)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As the Python community, we\u2019re all headed toward one goal- an ever-bettering Python.<\/p>\n<h4>4. High-Level<\/h4>\n<p>Python is a high-level language. This means that as programmers, we don\u2019t need to remember the system architecture. Python is closer to human thinking than to machine code.<\/p>\n<p>Also, we do not need to manage memory or <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">free memory ourselves. <\/span>This makes it more <strong>programmer-friendly<\/strong> and is one of the key features of python.<\/p>\n<h4>5. Portable<\/h4>\n<p>Let\u2019s assume you\u2019ve written a Python code for your Windows machine. Now, if you want to run it on a Mac, you don\u2019t need to make changes to it for the same.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, you can take one code and run it on any machine. This makes Python a <strong>portable language<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>However, you must avoid any system-dependent features in this case.<\/p>\n<h4>6. Interpreted<\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019re familiar with any languages like C++ or Java, you must first compile it, and then run it. But in Python, there is no need to compile it.<\/p>\n<p>Internally, its source code is converted into an immediate form called <strong>bytecode<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>So, all you need to do is to run your Python code without worrying about linking to libraries, and a few other things.<\/p>\n<p>By interpreted, we mean the source code is executed line by line, and not all at once. Because of this, it is <strong>easier to debug your code<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Also, interpreting makes it just slightly slower than Java, but that does not matter compared to the benefits it offers.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have any doubt in DataFlair&#8217;s features of python programming language article, drop a comment below, and we will get back to you.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>7. Object-Oriented<\/h4>\n<p>A programming language that can model the real world is said to be object-oriented. It focuses on objects and combines data and functions.<\/p>\n<p>Contrarily, a procedure-oriented language revolves around functions, which are code that can be reused.<\/p>\n<p>Python supports both <strong>procedure-oriented<\/strong> and <strong>object-oriented programming<\/strong> which is one of the key python features.<\/p>\n<p>It also supports multiple inheritance, unlike Java.<\/p>\n<p>A class is a blueprint for such an object. It is an abstract data type and holds no values.<\/p>\n<h4>8. Extensible<\/h4>\n<p>If needed, you can write some of your Python code in other languages like<strong> C++<\/strong>.This makes Python an extensible language, meaning that it can be extended to other languages.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It helps you to divide the code into different parts, like separating the code and adding the features wherever it is needed.<\/li>\n<li>Python can connect different libraries, programs, and tools from other languages also.<\/li>\n<li>It can change the way how the program will work by adding new commands and features.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>9. Embeddable<\/h4>\n<p>We just saw that we can put code in other languages in our Python source code.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is also possible to put our Python code in a source code in a different language like C++.<\/p>\n<p>This allows us to integrate scripting capabilities into our program of the other language.<\/p>\n<h4>10. Large Standard Library<\/h4>\n<p>Python downloads with a large library that you can use so you don\u2019t have to write your own code for every single thing.<\/p>\n<p><em>There are libraries for regular expressions, documentation-generation, unit-testing, web browsers, threading, databases, CGI, email, image manipulation, and a lot of other functionality.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>11. GUI Programming<\/h4>\n<p>Software is not user-friendly until its GUI is made. A user can easily interact with the software with a GUI.\u00a0 Python offers various libraries for making a graphical user interface for your applications.<\/p>\n<p>For this, you can use Tkinter, wxPython, or JPython. Python\u00a0provides built-in pop-up boxes like messagebox for alerts, filedialog, which is used to select files, and colorchooser for picking colors easily. These toolkits allow you for easy and fast development of GUI.<\/p>\n<h4>12. Dynamically Typed<\/h4>\n<p>Python is dynamically-typed. This means that the type for a value is decided at runtime, not in advance.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There is no need to declare variable types in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This is all about the features of the python programming language.<\/p>\n<h3>Popular Python Interview Questions<\/h3>\n<p>Here are some of the frequently asked Interview Questions from this topic:<\/p>\n<p>1. How is Python Portable Language?<\/p>\n<p>2. How will you define a Dynamically Typed language?<\/p>\n<p>3. What is FLOSS?<\/p>\n<p>4. What do you mean by &#8220;Python is Expressive&#8221;?<\/p>\n<p>5. Why we say Python is cross platform portable?<\/p>\n<h3>Summary<\/h3>\n<p>In this tutorial, we learned about various features of Python. We saw that Python is interpreted, dynamically-typed, and object-oriented. It is also portable, free, and easy.<\/p>\n<p>Now that\u2019s some motivation to dive into the world of Python.
