“Programming languages that expand possibilities for developers and reduce real-world constraints are always appreciated in the world of web development. Python, a language with a set of rules, too provides varied features to its users to enhance their experience. However, the concern whether Python is slower than other languages or not has never really left most of us in the field. While it was certainly slower than other interpreted languages such as Java or Smalltalk, Python has evolved way too much for better post Google’s Unladen Swallow Project. Unlike others in certain ways, Python is “
Simple: It is a seamless, minimalistic language that sans complicated frills for developers. Yes, many times, we find lots of gossips about the huge size of Python; but huge does not imply complex. Though Python is fully loaded with all required and additional methods and classes but they are way simpler to use and implement. A newbie with little knowledge on programming can learn Python without much hassle. In fact, Python is an interesting language itself. The codes are funny and you will get everything from within the library itself. So it eliminates all unnecessary efforts from the developer with the help of highly optimized and light weight methods. In fact, the program basically allows users to concentrate on the solution to the problem and comes across as extremely simple to decipher. Python features a unique pseudo-code nature that further increases its dynamics as a language.
High-level Language: The free, open source platform has evolved into a high-level language. Experienced Python developers are not needed to worry about the low-level details. The program can easily manage the memory used by other programs and reduce complexities for its users. The functions and object oriented approach of Python will definitely help developers in building quick applications. It is nowhere slow as compared to other programming languages like C, C++ or Java etc. In fact, programming in Python is really a charm for the developers.
Extensible: While it lends support to methodologies like object-oriented programming and data structure design, Python is highly extensible as a programming language. It lets developers run a critical piece of code quickly without any hassle. The program even enables developers to integrate Python within their C/C++ programs – as a result of which, they can easily experience scripting capabilities for their projects. What is more? A Python developer can integrate other web domain specific libraries or plug-ins for enhanced user experience. Though, you will hardly need any external resources for the Python application; because all are available within the library itself. Still if you need more customization for your application, you can opt for extensions using those third party tools and libraries.
Improved Library Modules: Python has enormously improved its performance standards by embedding support for improved library modules. Now, collections.OrderedDict is applied in C – which touts to accelerate the performance between four times to 100 times. The program even allows users to pass bytes to the tempfile module’s API’s – which will further return the transitory pathname as bytes (earlier, it used to return as STR). By this way, Python has improved its efficiency to a large extend for the industry. The major thing is that all the methods and classes of Python are highly optimized and hence we can expect exceptional quality of performance in real time situation.
Windows Improvements: There is another reason why Python is no longer considered slower than other languages and that is – Windows improvements. The programming language now features a new installer for Windows and has replaced the worn-out MSI. Not just this, the program also has included dedicated syntax for declaring co-routines. With this, the performance standard of Python has increased to a higher level.
Security Improvements: Python is highly secure and it enables developers in designing extremely safe environment for their user. Starting from memory management to database security all are well taken cared by Python itself. It has enhanced its security features with a new interchangeable, safe hash algorithm. There is a brand new command line option for isolate mode and the ability for users to conveniently make recently built file descriptors non-inheritable. Python even provides significant enhancements under its ssl.SSLContext class. So the developer neither the client needs to bother about security issues if their application is developed in Python by an efficient developer. With the improved security features, Python never lay you down in terms of performance or speed.
Python provides all modern amenities without compromising on the quality of application: Yes, Python has kept the door open for developers in developing enterprise standard web applications with responsiveness as the most valuable feature. With HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery one can easily build enterprise standard responsive applications that can impart similar user experience in all these modern smart devices like smart phones and tablets. It also enables Python web developers in building light weight high performance web solutions for these devices with low memory. With HTML5 canvas, it can render visually attractive graphics and design on the web page. What is more? You want to integrate Cloud? Done!! Take this from within the Python environment. Now with Python, you can integrate cloud storage in your application that will let your users store their data over cloud like Amazon, Azure or Google Drive etc. It will definitely help your users feel privileged and futuristic.
Modular & Definitive: Lastly, this accessible language for programmers is widely modular in its approach. Compared to other programming languages like PHP, Python is a lot less complicated. The program renders unsurpassed readability and can speedily be run on the servers. Python’s neat, exquisite layout further makes it much simpler to write codes.
The object-oriented Python is a very powerful programming language that has evolved into a more reliable, steady tool for web application development. While Unladen Swallow Project has given it a boost, the language could revive mainly for the new exciting features that it has unleashed in past. There are also many Python frameworks for the industry like Django and all. Django is one of the most popular web frameworks of the industry. With Django, one can build highly robust and high performance web solutions on the fly. It makes the coding effort much easier than before. So, in no manner Python is slower as compared to other languages!!
