And in 2021, it was the top programming language that employers sought, with over 70,000 job descriptions asking for it. It\u2019s a language that can handle complicated tasks, but has a simple syntax and is easy enough for new developers to learn. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clearly, it\u2019s a language worth having in your toolkit. But once you know the basics, what exactly can you create?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python is extremely popular and versatile<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First released in 1991, Python is a programming language that\u2019s been through a few versions. The latest version, Python 3, was released in 2008. Since then, it has consistently been one of the top programming languages in the world. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of Python\u2019s core traits is that it\u2019s designed to be modular. The standard library is particularly comprehensive, but it\u2019s also easy to find and add new libraries to fit whatever task you\u2019re attempting. It\u2019s deliberately simple and easy to read. It embraces a philosophy that when coding in Python \u201cthere should be one \u2013 and preferably only one \u2013 obvious way to do it.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10464\" src=\"https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.32.26-PM.png\" alt=\"Tiobe Index Pytython\" width=\"1372\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.32.26-PM.png 1372w, https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.32.26-PM-768x371.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1372px) 100vw, 1372px\" \/><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python has continued to grow in popularity since it launched. As of 2021, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiobe.com\/tiobe-index\/python\/\">TIOBE Index<\/a> ranks it second in the world.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It has nearly 300,000 packages<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you can use Python\u2019s standard library for quite a lot of tasks, from creating graphical user interfaces to complicated mathematics, there are also over 290,000 packages you can plug in from the Python Package Index. These include libraries on using databases, processing images, machine learning, networking computers, and processing text. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is Python\u2019s biggest strength. And it\u2019s one key reason it\u2019s used so widely.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most large organizations use Python<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazon. CERN. Facebook. Google. Instagram. NASA. Reddit. Spotify. Wikipedia. Yahoo. All of them use Python in some way or another, for a range of different tasks. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wherever you end up working, it\u2019s likely that some elements will use Python. It might be for a single function, like your web server. Or it could be the main application you\u2019re developing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10466\" src=\"https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.34.05-PM.png\" alt=\"python\" width=\"1320\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.34.05-PM.png 1320w, https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screen-Shot-2021-06-23-at-1.34.05-PM-768x229.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1320px) 100vw, 1320px\" \/>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiobe.com\/tiobe-index\/python\/\">TIOBE.<\/a> Python is chomping at the heels of C and could very well surpass it.<\/span><\/i><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what can you actually do with Python?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Develop software or mobile apps<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This shouldn\u2019t be all that surprising. As with most languages, Python can create computer software and mobile applications. Often these are for utility. But with the right libraries, there\u2019s really no limit to what you can create. For example, MakeHuman is a powerful 3D modeling software, programmed in Python. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to AppDeveloper Magazine, Python is particularly popular for creating applications in finance, whether that\u2019s to help retail banks record transactions or insurance companies to predict payouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create web applications<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because Python is so ubiquitous, it\u2019s common to find plugins and widgets creating in the language. If you want to customize these \u2013 or integrate the code into your own website in another way \u2013 it\u2019s particularly important to understand it. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most of these applications are on the backend. For example, Plone is an open-source content management system. It lets users handle what content is on their website and easily add and change it. But Python can also be used to create front-end applications hosted online, like widgets. Or even frameworks to handle the server-side processing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Analyze and visualize data<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A common way to use Python is for scanning through databases, or scraping the web, and then organizing that data into an easier format to read. Python has in-built graphical libraries as well as good capabilities for working with databases. This makes it very popular for analyzing and then turning that data into something more visual. For example, heat maps, histograms or even just a simple bar chart. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact that Python can work well with complex datasets and turn it into something understandable, but also be able to deal with difficult mathematics, is possibly why it\u2019s so popular in financial industries.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run machine learning and artificial intelligence<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large libraries of code, especially around natural language processing, lend themselves well for researchers looking into artificial intelligence. Developers can easily run the program without needing to compile it into machine code beforehand, and it can be much easier to host the program on a virtual machine. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This lets researchers create neural nets, process vast amounts of data, and let the code teach itself. All with relative ease, compared to other languages. In fact, Python is typically the preferred language when looking into artificial intelligence and machine learning.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make a game<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, it\u2019s worth mentioning that Python is often used in game development, too. While it\u2019s rare that a game will be exclusively programmed in Python, it can be used for lots of different aspects. Battlefield 2, for example, uses Python to keep the scores and balanced teams. While Civilization 4 uses Python for its logic processing, including the AI.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Python is in demand<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever metric you use, it\u2019s clear that Python is one of the most popular languages on the planet. Even when it isn\u2019t the main language for a project, there\u2019s likely some Python touching the project somewhere along the stack.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019d like to add Python to the languages in your arsenal, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.codingdojo.com\/what-is-python-programming\">bootcamp<\/a>.
