Completely out of context, sorry, but couldn't avoid to note this:

"Being easy to pick up and progress quickly towards developing larger and more complicated applications, Python is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in computing environments".

Why would you change the order of the subject in such an unreadable way? Isn't much easier to say:

"Python is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in computing environments, as it's easy to pick up and progress quickly towards developing larger and more complicated applications"

I'm not expert in writing, it just sounded weird. If anyone can explains what's going on there, really appreciated.
