Python is a versatile language, with powerful built-in and external libraries. I have made it my mission for the last year to automate as much of my life with Python to remove tedious tasks such as searching files, organizing folders, extracting stock market data, etc. If I could count how mu ch of my day I spend dragging folders around and sorting them by the time it would probably amount to around an hour or so. An hour that could be easily be utilized productively for other tasks.
