PIP or Python commands quick reference

Python is an open-source, high-level programming language that supports multiple programming paradigms, including functional, procedural, and object-oriented programming. 

Key Features of Python


Readability: Python's syntax emphasizes readability, making it easier to write and maintain code.

Interpreted: Python is an interpreted language, which means you can run the code directly without compiling it first.

Dynamically Typed: Variables in Python do not require an explicit declaration to reserve memory space. The declaration happens automatically when a value is assigned to a variable.

Extensive Libraries: Python has a vast standard library and a large ecosystem of third-party packages and frameworks.

Cross-Platform: Python can run on various operating systems, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, and more.
