Programming is one of the most important skills of a hacker.
When someone wants to become a hacker, he/she has to be a good
programmer. But, what is the best programming language for
hackers to begin with? Although, It is very important to have
basic knowledge of every programming language still you have to
master in a particular language. For that purpose, Python is the
most popular programming language among hackers.
Why is Python Programming Language very useful for Hackers?
When you start learning the core of hacking, Python is great.
With a giant standard library and a packaging system that puts
prebuilt tools and frameworks at your fingertips, it is often
very easy to hack something into existence.
1. Python is an Object-Oriented programming
Object oriented programming approach is the most popular
approach for software development. It uses classes and objects
to create models based on the real world environment.
Object-oriented Programming makes it easy to maintain and modify
existing code as new objects are created inheriting
characteristics from existing ones. This cuts down the
development time considerably and makes adjusting the program
much simpler.
2. Python has a Simple Structure
Python programs take much less time to develop. Its programs are
typically 3-5 times shorter than equivalent Java programs. This
difference can be attributed to Python’s built-in high-level
data types and its dynamic typing. For example, a Python
programmer wastes no time declaring the types of arguments or
variables. It supports a programming style that uses simple
functions and variables without engaging in class definitions.
Python programs follow simple English-like structure.
Python programmer can finish in two months what two C++
programmers can’t complete in a year.
Simple Hello world program in Python:
print “Hello World!”
Simple Hello World program in Java:
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(“Hello, World”);
}
}
3. Python is a strong scripting language
Python is a general-purpose programming language as well as a
scripting language. It can be used for everything that is done
in Java. Python and Java interpret during runtime. It allows a
good developer to play with hardware as well like server
configuration, change server mode, control server behavior etc.

4. It has Rich Library support
Python programming has many pre-built libraries that provide
some powerful functionality. Python is a High-Level Language
with 1,000 modules and much more are available in various other
repositories.
5. Python for Web applications
Python is at home on the web, unlike a low-level language like
C. Frameworks like Django, Pyramid, and Flask gives the ability
to create real web applications that have the same power as the
sites we use every day.
6. Supportive community
As you step into the programming world, you’ll soon understand
how vital support is, as the developer community is all about
giving and receiving help. The larger a community, the more
likely you’d get help and the more people will be building
useful tools to ease the process of development. Python is
having:
5th Largest StackOverflow Community
3rd Largest Meetup Community
4th Most-Used Language at GitHub
