Python or C++ : A more exploitable language

Between C++ and Python, there is no comparison when it comes to development. Python takes all the badges.

Python has taken over the developing space. In fact, it’s everywhere. Ask any coder and s/he’ll tell you that it’s very easy to learn and it’s often the right tool for the job.

The programming language is also quite popular among data scientists and startups. That can give you an idea of how prevalent it is and will be in the near future. Python is amongst the Top 5 coding languagebecause it’s extremely logical and light.

Further, installation programs like the Anaconda can do some amazing thingswith various operating systems (OS). Python has the added benefit of being a clean and simple syntax with massive community run library (NumPy, Pandas, SciPy, etc.).

This means that beginners and seasoned veterans alike will have access to millions of lines of code that can be easily borrowed from the best programmers (in the world) and used by anyone. So what are some of the cool things you can do with Python?

  • Web Development: When it comes to web development, it’s a great option because you have a ton of choices like Django and Pyramid to work with. So you can build a cool website from scratch without feeling overwhelmed. You can also take advantage of micro-frameworks like Flask and Bottle.
  • Scientific and Numeric Computing: Data analytics basically falls under this category. To build something in this niche, you can take advantage of SciPy for mathematics, engineering, and science. Pandas is also a data analysis and modeling library, so there’s a lot going on with Python within data science.
  • Machine Learning: Cool stuff like finding fingerprint identifications, predicting stocks, and spam detection can all be achieved with ML. Coders can set this up by taking advantage of Python modules like Scikit-learn, Tensorflow, and Theano to support it.
  • Browser automation: You can also use Python to do cool things like automating your browser to do social media posts. This can be done by using Selenium with Python.

These are just a few examples, Python is a lot more powerful and resourceful language.

Thank you for reading 😃
