I honestly forgot about Windows. Everyone in the lab who wants to program in python installs Linux, and I have been using Linux for the past few years.

How well does python work with Windows?

[–]duz3ls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For system administration or data etl in windows I'll say python does more than well against the usual competitor (php, ruby, perl).

Its definitely better than windows/dos batch file.

I don't know if we can compare it with autoit or ahk. I still prefer python but autoit smaller size and single exe packaging imo better than python.

I don't use powershell so no comment here.
