I know there's a lot of downvotes because there are people reading this as hate toward Python. On one hand, one can make the case that it is overused and this doesn't bold well for those that simply can never like it's syntax. On the other hand, Python is perfect for small scripts that isn't tailored for a Domain or just quick codes.

Honestly, I'm not really a fan of the formatting and syntax of Python but I agree, it is a fine choice for scripting things quickly if you don't mind the language itself.

The biggest issue I have with it are all the incompatible versions, juggling modules, having some other random thing with a ridiculous configuration, where a bash script would be infinitely easier. Anything more complicated and Python is just too much of a headache.
