意味（1）

(Greek mythology) The earth-dragon of Delphi, represented as a serpent, killed by Apollo.

Here Apollo killed a serpent called the Python, and established a great prophetic shrine. Sometimes it is said that the Titaness Themis had the shrine before him, and this, as well as the killing of the Python, suggests that Apollo took over a place already of religious significance, associated with chthonic (i.e., earth) powers.

意味（2）

(computing) An interpreted, high-level, general-purpose programming language invented by Guido van Rossum.
