Python is a multi-paradigm programming language. This means that rather than forcing programmers to adopt a particular style of programming, allows several styles: object-oriented programming, functional programming and imperative programming. Paradigms are supported by using extensions. Python uses dynamic typing and reference counting for memory management. An important feature of Python is dynamic name resolution; ie what links a method and variable names during program execution (also called dynamic binding of methods). Another design goal is ease of language extension. You can easily write new modules in C or C ++. Python can be included in applications that need a programmable interface. While programming in Python could be considered in some hostile situations to traditional functional programming Lisp, there are enough similarities between Python and Lisp languages ​​minimalist family such as Scheme.

Django is a web framework open source, written in Python, which respects the paradigm known as Model Template View.

In June 2008 it was announced that the newly formed Django Software Foundation Django would take over in the future. Django's primary goal is to facilitate the creation of complex web sites. Django emphasizes the re-use, connectivity and extensibility of components, rapid development and the principle Do not Repeat Yourself (DRY, English Do not Repeat Yourself). Python is used in all parts of the framework, even in settings, files, and data models.
