I think a lot of people come to Python for the data science component of it. The fact that it's a full stack, legitimate and programming language means you don't have to just live within little shells of what Matt Lab will do or LabView will do. And I mean back in 2009, when I started using it, the tooling was already pretty good,. But if you have a look at it now in 2015, it's really amazing what kind of an ecosystem people have created. You can use IPython notebook, NumPy, SciPy and all these other tools that we can use to almost anything that we can imagine. So it's really, really amazing to see.
