Why Python?

It's occurred to me I haven't posted much on Python, which has been my preferred computer language for the last couple of years. Nothing else compares: it's high-level, object-oriented, actually encourages easily-readable code, and doesn't get in my way as a programmer.

Granted, I'm not an expert in the field, but every time I have to program in other high-level languages such as PHP, Java, bash, or (in a worst-case scenario) Perl, I realize how much Python has spoiled me.

Here's a link to an amazing article that got me to consider Python (and I would imagine it's probably done the same for many others):
