What are the key features of Python?
The main features of Python are its simple syntax, a big standard library and the freedom to write code in more than one style.
- Easy to learn: the syntax is short and close to English.
- Interpreted: code is run directly, so you can test small pieces quickly.
- Dynamically typed: you do not declare the type of a variable.
- Object-oriented: supports classes and objects, and also procedural and functional styles.
- Large standard library: modules for files, dates, math, web and more.
- Free and open source: anyone can download and use it.
- Cross-platform: the same code runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
