| Python Programming Language | |
| Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy | |
| emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. | |
| Python was conceived in the late 1980s by Guido van Rossum at Centrum Wiskunde & | |
| Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands. Python was first released in 1991. | |
| Guido van Rossum began working on Python in the late 1980s as a successor to the | |
| ABC programming language. He chose the name Python because he was a fan of the | |
| British comedy series "Monty Python's Flying Circus." | |
| Python consistently ranks as one of the most popular programming languages. | |
| It is used for web development, data science, artificial intelligence, | |
| scientific computing, and automation. | |
| Key features of Python include: | |
| - Dynamic typing and binding | |
| - Built-in data structures like lists, tuples, and dictionaries | |
| - Support for modules and packages | |
| - Extensive standard library | |
| - Support for multiple programming paradigms | |
| Python 2.0 was released on October 16, 2000. Python 3.0 was released on | |
| December 3, 2008. Python 2.7 reached end of life on January 1, 2020. | |
| The Python Software Foundation (PSF) is a non-profit organization that holds | |
| the intellectual property rights behind Python and organizes PyCon. | |
| World War I | |
| World War I, often abbreviated as WWI, was a global conflict that lasted from | |
| 1914 to 1918. It was one of the deadliest conflicts in human history. | |
| The war was triggered by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of | |
| Austria-Hungary on June 28, 1914, in Sarajevo by Gavrilo Princip. | |
| Several factors contributed to the outbreak of World War I: | |
| - Militarism: The buildup of military forces and arms race between nations | |
| - Alliances: Complex web of alliances that drew nations into conflict | |
| - Imperialism: Competition for colonies and global influence | |
| - Nationalism: Strong national pride and desire for independence | |
| The major Allied Powers included France, the United Kingdom, Russia, Italy, | |
| and later the United States. The Central Powers included Germany, Austria-Hungary, | |
| the Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria. | |
| The war ended on November 11, 1918, when an armistice was signed. The Treaty | |
| of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, officially ending the war. | |
| An estimated 9 million soldiers and 7 million civilians died as a result of | |
| the war, making it one of the deadliest conflicts in history. | |
