While there wasn't a plethora of examples to peruse, I thought the article was great because it showed examples of Python using procedural, object-oriented, and functional styles, and was a good, albeit brief, overview of Python's flexibility.

To me, and for the type of work I do, Python has been a huge time saver and allowed me to produce results much quicker than any other language I've used (e.g. Java, C#, Perl, BASH, C, C++, and Ruby).
