Why I'm Learning Python

Okay, so as you might know I'm learning Python, I obviously have some reasons for it...
Here they are.

1. Research, you probably know that I'm making my own scripting language, I need to know what's out there and to see how others do it. I don't want to make some mistakes that the coders of Python did :P
2. Scripting, I like the idea of writing a useful script in like five minutes that does what you need it to do instead of writing a whole program.
3. High-level, Pascal is medium level, I want to learn a high level programming language(not my main purpose because Java is high level :P)
4. Collaborations, I'm most likely not going to collaborate with others in Pascal because it isn't very popular, but since Python is one of the more popular programming languages I'm thinking that I might be able to collaborate with people :)

That's about it :P
