Where does Python stand in the mainstream development world of software applications?


Personally I feel Python is a very promising programming language, although it does not seem that it is very popular with in the main stream realm, in which Microsoft and Sun Microsystems seems to dominate. I have read a lot of articles discussing the ups and downs of Python compared to other languages like C#, java, C++, Perl, etc. But still it seems very capable of doing just about anything those languages can do. I mean there are tons od different flavors of python that are built to act just like the popular programmign languages; Python + java = Jython, Python + C/C++ = wxPython, .NET framework = IronPython and so on! what do you suppose is the reasoning on why Python hasn't become as popular as it seems it should be? I mean its been around a pretty long time, yet it still remains unoticed.

Please no stupid responses like "Python sucks, end of story" or something like that.... Thank you :-)

I don't think it is unpopular, as you stated in your statement, other programs are integrated Python into their program languages.
Look here for some information on Python.
