Abstract

The programming language that we are going to use to create games is Python, which gets its name because the original author of the language was a fan of the UK television series Monty Python. While we will be using Python to create games, the language is a general-purpose programming language that is used for things like data analysis, robotics, creating websites, and much more. Companies and agencies such as Google, NASA, and Instagram rely heavily on Python.
