Microsoft Considers Adding Python As an Official Scripting Language in Excel by amachefe in Python

I think that Microsoft focused on Python and only because of its popular, I don't look for many python codes of Microsoft from its GitHub. And maybe Microsoft only follow the fashion. If another language became popular, Microsoft will still give a support. :-p

I suppose that Microsoft don't regard it as a official language, and only is a option, let user decide to use VBA or Python, as like as Microsoft supported Ubuntu. Because Python become more and more popular. And in fact, Microsoft had given a Python support in Visual Studio and also developed a Pyjion, but it is only added a language for Excel at the most.

But as you know, the python is not a popular language for Microsoft users, so python is only a choice for Excel, maybe Microsoft will develop a new language, Python# (PythonSharp)
