Python is an easy to learn, powerful programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures and a simple but effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python's elegant syntax and dynamic typing, together with its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most platforms

The Python interpreter is installed by default on the bootable microSD. To try it save the following example on a directory calling it hello.py.

print "Hello world !"

Save and launch it typing:

# python hello.py
Hello world !
