About Python

Python Features and Benefits

Experience the numerous benefits of Python as a programming language

Readability

For an inexperienced programmer, reading and writing Python can feel as natural as reading English. Its simple syntax makes it the perfect language for beginners to start with.

High-Level Language

As a high-level language, Python relieves programmers from the burden of handling intricate low-level details such as memory management. By focusing on major aspects, Python streamlines the coding process and promotes ease of use.

Portability

Python offers exceptional versatility, enabling developers to deploy their programs across a wide range of platforms. It is supported on every widespread operating system, including Windows, Mac, Linux, and Unix. This stems from Python’s ability to run on different systems with almost no modifications.

Efficient Computer Interpretation

When a computer executes Python code, it undergoes a two-step interpretation process. First, the code is translated into bytecode, which is a more compact and efficient representation. Then, the bytecode is further translated into the computer’s native code, ensuring optimal performance.

Discover the advantages of Python’s readability, high-level approach, portability, and efficient interpretation as you embark on your coding journey. Experience the power and versatility of Python, a language designed to simplify and enhance the art of programming.

Python or Java? Which One Should My Child Learn First?

We get this question all the time, and here’s our advice:

It’s simple, readable, and helps students quickly understand the fundamentals of coding. For beginners under 14, we strongly recommend Python as their first language. It lets them focus on concepts instead of getting stuck on complicated syntax.

The AP Comp Sci A course is taught in Java, so it can make sense for older students to start there. That said, students who begin with Python usually have an easier time when they move on to Java—they already understand the core concepts and can focus on learning Java’s structure.

Either way, both languages build on the same ideas, and learning one will make the other easier. The most important thing is to begin and to enjoy the process.
