Is Solidity the same as Python?

The question is about Solidity

Answer:

No, Solidity is not the same as Python. However, both are high-level, human-readable programming languages. Solidity was designed for writing smart contracts on blockchain platforms, such as Ethereum, while Python is a more general-purpose language, applicable in many areas such as web development, data analysis, AI, etc. Solidity is a language that borrows syntax from JavaScript and C++, targeting functionality on a blockchain, such as transaction management and contract functions. Python, on the other hand, is simple and has a lot of libraries, but it does not embed native blockchain capabilities as compared to Solidity.
