Exploring Python's Awesomeness

I recently saw The Kung Fu Panda movie, and it has this really cool and funny saying that made me think about the way I perceive the Python programming language:

"There is no charge for awesomeness... or attractiveness."

Python is a really awsome language, and many people (including myself) find it extremely attractive. Additionally, it's an open language with great free implementations. What else can you ask for?

This is my first ProgrammingBits post. It's my intention to use this blog to write some insights about deep technical (and maybe even philosophical) issues regarding the Python programming language and its use in education.

I just basically want to give back a little bit of what I've received from the generous Python community. Hopefully, some people will find my writings somehow useful. Or maybe just amusing. That's fine with me.
