The most popular implementation of Python is the CPython maintained by the Python Software Foundation, developing under an [[open source]] development model, and is licensed under its own Python Software Foundation License. CPython is a bytecode interpreter and comes with a rich library that includes modules for creating graphical user interface, relational database, arbitrary precision arithematic, complex arithematic, unit testing, regular expression, XML parsing, C/C++ interfacing and zip compression; which makes it a powerful glue language between lower-level languages and software programs.
