Here, in this blog I strive to provide an almost cheat sheet style content to the the many things you can do with Python. The examples are from beginner to advanced level. The examples also bring out the differences that are there between Python 3.x and 2.x

Python 3.0 was released in 2008. The final 2.x version 2.7 release came out in mid-2010, with a statement of extended support for this end-of-life release.

Python's creator is Guido van Rossum. His site is http://www.python.org/~guido/. He writes in 1996 -

"Over six years ago, in December 1989, I was looking for a "hobby" programming project that would keep me occupied during the week around Christmas. My office (a government-run research lab in Amsterdam) would be closed, but I had a home computer, and not much else on my hands. I decided to write an interpreter for the new scripting language I had been thinking about lately: a descendant of ABC that would appeal to Unix/C hackers. I chose Python as a working title for the project, being in a slightly irreverent mood (and a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus).

I hope this blog will help someone with their challenges in python.
