I've been in the industry for a few years now, mostly on the financial IT side and have worked for some of the largest firms on the street and one thing I've started to notice is the rise of Python for rapid prototyping for models/strategy dev, tools automation, and data parsing.
Has anyone else notice Python becoming a viable force on many trading desks these days? I work for a fairly large stat/arb desk and ~35% of our code base is now Python and increasing at a rapid rate.
I really love python myself I started using it about 2-3 years back I just thought I would put this out there to see if anyone else is taking notice?
