The correct answer is a programming language.Python is an interpretable, high-level and general-purpose programming language.It created by Guido van Rossum and first published in 1991, Python's design philosophy stresses the readability of code with its impressive use of substantial white space.The goal of its language constructs and object-oriented approach is to help programmers write simple, logical code for small and large projects. Python is dynamically typed and dust-collected.It supports multiple programming paradigms, including structured (especially procedural), object-oriented, and functional programming.Due to its extensive standard library, Python is also defined as a "batteries included" language.Important PointsPython 2.0, launched in 2000, added features like list comprehensions and a waste management system with comparison numbering.Python 3.0, released in 2008, was a big language upgrade that wasn't entirely backwards-compatible, and a lot of Python 2 code didn't run unmodified on Python 3.The Python 2 language was formally retired in 2020 (first set for 2015) and Python 2.7.18 is the final Python 2.7 version and hence the last Python 2 release.
