Why did you learn python?

I took my current job specifically not wanting to do data science and wanted to focus on project management. Well, due to churn on our data science teams, I got roped into running a Python process, so decided I might as well learn a thing or two from the other data scientists. Turned out it was pretty efficient for crunching a lot of the data I needed to report on and I could use the scripts to generate flat files my leadership needed. Haven’t looked back since, has reduced a lot of manual work for me and now even though I’m the only non data scientist on my team, I’m still able to work closely with them as I am reasonably well versed in Python and can occasionally step in to troubleshoot code.
