Python programming language

Python is a multi-paradigm language, like Perl and unlike Smalltalk or Haskell. This means that, rather than forcing coders to adopt one particular style of coding, it permits several. Object orientation, structured programming, functional programming, and more recently, design by contract are all supported. Python is dynamically type-checked and uses garbage collection for memory management. The term "agile programming language" has recently come into vogue, applied mostly to Python.
