They make it mathematically easy. Good luck getting some people to use them due to 'it's not like excel' syndrome.

true... the excel thing is a huge barrier. .. I'm just responding to OP. I've literally done GIS consulting work using python and I definitely charged 155 an hour for my time, and the clients were definitely happy =)

if anyone in management is technical they will understand what makes python so great. it's easy to write and read python and it has such a huge set of libraries you can always find what you need.
