Python packages and modules

The Python programming language is a high-level and general-use language with clear syntax and a complete standard library. Often referred to as a scripting language, security experts have highlighted Python as a language to develop information-security toolkits. The modular design, the human-readable code, and the fully-developed library set provide a starting point for security researchers and experts to build tools.

Python comes with a comprehensive standard library that provides everything from integrated modules that provide access to simple I/O, to platform-specific API calls. The beauty of Python is the modules, packages, and individual frames contributed by the users. The bigger a project is, the greater the order and the separation between the different parties must be. In Python, we can make this division using the modules concept.
