3. The
Definition.
• Python Is An Interpreted, High-level And General-
purpose Programming Language. Python's Design
Philosophy Emphasizes Code Readability With Its
Notable Use Of Significant Indentation.
• Its Language Constructs And Object-oriented Approach
Aim To Help Programmers Write Clear, Logical Code For
Small And Large-scale Projects.

4. History .
• Python Was Conceived In The Late 1980s By Guido Van
Rossum At Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) In The
Netherlands As A Successor To ABC Programming
Language, Which Was Inspired By SETL, Capable Of
Exception Handling And Interfacing With The Amoeba
Operating System.
• Its Implementation Began In December 1989. Van Rossum
Shouldered Sole Responsibility For The Project, As The
Lead Developer, Until 12 July 2018, When He Announced
His "Permanent Vacation" From His Responsibilities As
Python's Benevolent Dictator For Life, A Title The Python
Community Bestowed Upon Him To Reflect His Long-term
Commitment As The Project's Chief Decision-maker.

5. • He Now Shares His Leadership As A Member Of A Five-
person Steering Council. In January 2019, Active
Python Core Developers Elected Brett Cannon, Nick
Coghlan, Barry Warsaw, Carol Willing And Van Rossum
To A Five-member "Steering Council" To Lead The
Project. Guido Van Rossum Has Since Then Withdrawn
His Nomination For The 2020 Steering Council.
