Python

Edit online

Python is an agile, dynamically typed, expressive, open source programming language that supports multiple programming philosophies, including procedural, object-oriented, and functional.

Python is a popular high-level programming language that is easily extensible through the use of third-party packages and often allows powerful function to be written with few lines of code.

You can run Python applications on the IBM i platform. In addition, extensions have been created to allow Python applications to access IBM® DB2® for i objects and IBM i system resources and objects.

To find out everything about running Python applications on IBM i, see the IBM i Open Source Technologies Link outside Information Center support page.
