What does Python mean?

Python is a dynamic, object-oriented, high-level programming language that can be used for many kinds of software development. Python programming language was created by Guido van Rossum. Python got its name from the BBC comedy series “Monty Python’s Flying Circus”. Guido van Rossum needed a name that was short, unique, and slightly mysterious. Since he was a fan of the show he thought this name was great.
