Difference between Python and Swift

1. Python :
Python is a popular, general purpose and object-oriented programming language which was designed by Guido Van Rossum in 1991 and further expanded by the Python software foundation. It is a very easy language with simple syntaxes designed which reduces the cost and speeds up the coder’s workflow.

Companies which uses Python are Google, Netflix, Dropbox, Facebook, Spotify, Instagram, and more.

Advantages of Python :

• Simple code and readability
• Both object-oriented and procedural language
• Extensible and Open source
• Portable and library support

Disadvantages of Python :

• Certain design restrictions
• High memory consumption
• Unreal for mobile development

2. Swift :
Swift is a general purpose, compiled programming language which was introduced in the year 2014 for modern approach to software design patterns by Apple Inc. like macOS, iOS, watchOS, tvOS, and beyond. The syntax of Swift language is concise and expressive.It builds on the best of C and Objective-C, without any compatibility constraints.

Companies which uses Swift are Uber, Slack, Robinhood, Lyft and more.

Advantages of Swift :

• Easy to learn and simple syntax
• Open source
• Good memory management
• Interoperable

Disadvantages of Swift :

• Limited community support
• Few native libraries
• Compatibility problem
