In 1991 Guido van Rossum designed initial python programming language. python is a functional programming language for utilizing in small or large-scale applications.  Python  is designed with features to facilitate data analysis and visualization. It can be used to develop different applications like web applications, graphic user interface based applications, software development applications.  Python  relies on indentation, using whitespace, to define scope; such as the scope of loops, functions, and classes. Other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose. It has a very good feature like an automatic memory management system. Presently python2 and python3 are the two major versions being used. Python version numbers are like A.B.C where A is the Major version and B is used for minor version numbering.
