Answer, reasons to learn another scripting language;
It provides different techniques to problems,
It is eaiser and clearer to write with a strong community to aid
developers,
Problems can be scaled,
There are a lot of high scale Python projects.

Hope that helped.

There are lots of bigger projects to work on. Check out Spambayes, the
original bittorrent, or Zope for some of the more well known ones.

At least I'm living in a free country and nobody forces me to learn
python. So I don't fully understand why you HAVE TO learn it. When your
problems can be solved in a different programming language than you
should be free to use whatever you like. And also why should it be
forbidden to create a new programming language? Diversity and
competition is usually not bad.

Python is a general purpose programming language like Java,
Smalltalk, Pascal, etc.

Its purpose is to allow a user to quickly write readable and
easily maintained programs.

Cna you please help me with this,

Only you know whether/why you need to learn something.

Is there a possibilty to work on bigger projects with Python

Yes.

I imagine that there is some English as a second language getting
involved and the intent of the question was more like "What is
python useful for on Windows?", which has pretty much the same
meaning but is open to a slightly friendlier interpretation(i.e.,
tell me how I can use python instead of tell me why I should use
python).

The other question might be more like "I already know VBS, what do I
gain by learning python?".

(the answers could be "lots of things, including full applications"
and "among other things, you can use it on other platforms, and you
might prefer the syntax".)

thanks to all,
Can you all forward me some sites where there may examples of work
done on Python and that which I amy bring into some application
