Python

Non essential trivia - Why was this language named Python? A clue is that the command line shell (not quite an actual IDE (Integrated Development Environment)) is named IDLE.


In my opinion, the language was named Python because pythons just lay around IDLE until their prey comes along.  Also, the language is hard to understand until you have an epiphany that clears up all of the confusing tidbits, just like it's hard to see a snake because of its camouflage until you know that it's there.  Once that happens, it's actually quite hard to lose the snake after finding it.  Likewise, once you understand the Python, it becomes very straightforward and easy to decipher.
