Python: Penetration Testing for Developers

Python formatting

This language's greatest selling feature for me is its formatting. It takes very little work to put a script together, and because of its simplistic formatting requirements, you reduce chances of errors. For experienced programmers, the loathsome ; and {} signs will no longer impact your development time due to syntax errors.

Indentation

The most important thing to remember in Python is indentation. Python uses indents to show where logic blocks are changed. So, if you are writing a simple print script as mentioned earlier, you are not necessarily going to see this, but if you are writing an if statement, you will. See the following example, which prints the statement previously mentioned here:

#!/usr/bin/env python execute=True ...
