Note

It’s worth pointing out that we do not hold any technology religion to Python. However, we feel when it comes to network automation it is a great first choice for several reasons. First, Python is a dynamically typed language that allows you to create and use Python objects (such as variables and functions) where and when needed, meaning they don’t need to be defined before you start using them. This simplifies the getting started process. Second, Python is also super readable. It’s common to see conditional statements like if device in device_list:, and in that statement, you can easily decipher that we are simply checking to see if a device is in a particular list of devices. Another reason is that network vendors are building a great set of libraries and tools using Python. This just adds to the benefit of learning to program with Python.
