Python可定义为面向对象的脚本语言。
常以脚本而不是程序描述python代码文件,因为脚本倾向于描述简单的顶层代码文件,程序描述那些相对复杂的多文件应用。
选择Python的原因:软件质量,开发者效率,可移植性,标准库的支持,组件集成,享受乐趣
优点:面向对象,免费,可移植,功能强大,可混合(胶水语言),简单易用
缺点:性能--速度没C/CPP快

The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!
