"Why Python
"Ultimately, the reason these tutes are on Python is because
Python rocks!!, and it rocks in so many ways:
"For a start, the Python language is extremely, sublimely
beautiful. When I say beautiful, I don't mean in a La Giaconda sort
of sense – although it's code indentation convention does
make it visually attractive. Rather, I mean it in a Galois Theory
sort of sense. That is, it has a beautiful simplicity and
consistency from which comes a deep power (don't expect to
understand the Galois Theory reference until you've made it to
college – I think it is no co-incidence that Guido van Rossum
was a mathematician). As you learn more about how Python does what
it does you will constantly think how clever its creators
were."
