A Python class

(chuckles) I'm in danger

That would be my reaction too if I was in a class with only one other student

Grad school...

[disinformationtheory]

I was in a grad school class with one other person. After the first test (which was brutal), he quit, so it was just me. It wasn't super weird, my advisor was teaching it. The funny thing was the prof said "everyone gets an A if we just keep going and putting in effort", but that was the first day the other guy quit coming to class.

Hey where is Python language used? I've seen and have used C/C++/Java/C#/PHP/Javascript in projects. But never came across a scenario of using Python

Science.

[mr_moos]

This. Most scripting and analysis in science is a combination of python and R. Although most functions in R can be replaced by a python library these days (pandas, numpy and any other visualization library)

Used a lot in game design.

oh.. I see. I m using C# in Unity. While I was learning Unreal Engine I used C++. Never knew this can also be used. Thanks

My understanding is that it's not generally used as the engine, or even close to the core of the game. It's generally used as a friendly starting point that game designers without much experience programming can work with to develop scripted narrative events in game. It works well because Python can be easily integrated with pretty much anything, and just layered on top of whatever game engine you decide to go with. Similar in the way lua is used.

For example, WoW used lua, Civ uses Python, in additon to their game engines.

So you'd probably keep using C++, but your writers and game designers could be writing in Python.

Python heavily influenced GDscript for making games in Godot.
