The Official Date of Birth is 20th feb 1991.
.

The first version of Python 0.9.0 was released in


1991. Version 0.9.0 Includes functions, exception
handling and the core data types: str, list, dict
etc.

with many new features.
 Python 3.0 was released On 3rd December 2008,
with more testing and includes new features.
 Python is widely used in web development, data
analysis, Artificial intelligence, Data science, Deep
learning and many other fields due to its
versatility and ease of use.
.

Why was Python 3 introduced?


Python 3 was introduced to fix design flaws and
remove redundant(Unnecessary) constructs that
were present in Python 2.x
.

Differences between Python 2 and Python 3:


Key differences include the print function,
integer division, and Unicode handling.
 Python 3 also emphasizes modern
programming features and improved standard
libraries.
.

 Python is a Dynamic, General Purpose, high


level, interpreted, freeware and open source
programming language.
 Python supports Both procedure oriented
programming (Set of Functions) and object-
oriented programming hence we get benefits
like Security and Reusability.
 In Python, we don’t need to declare the type
of variable because Python is a dynamically
typed language.
