Why I Chose Python?

Dec 12, 2025 | By Ijaj Hussain

In the world of programming, there are endless languages to choose from—Java, C++, JavaScript, Go. But as a System Analyst focused on backend efficiency and data handling, Python was the obvious choice for me. Here is why.

1. Readability & Efficiency

Python reads like English. When I am writing automation scripts or debugging server issues at HPE, I don't want to spend hours fighting with complex syntax. Python allows me to write logic fast and keep my code clean.

2. The Data & AI Ecosystem

My work often intersects with data analysis. Python is the undisputed king of data. Libraries like Pandas, NumPy, and Matplotlib make it incredibly powerful for analyzing system logs and performance metrics.

Plus, building features like my portfolio's AI Chatbot was simple thanks to Python's easy string manipulation and JSON handling capabilities.

3. Versatility (Backend + Scripting)

I love that I can use the same language to:

  • Build a full-stack web app (using Flask).
  • Write a quick automation script for Linux servers.
  • Analyze database records.

Conclusion

For me, Python isn't just a language; it's a tool that bridges the gap between software development and system operations (DevOps). It allows me to build scalable solutions without getting bogged down in boilerplate code.
