Python

I am kind of a n00b but I am studying and learning the Python programming language, can someone tell me what it is capable of apart from graphical design? Can it for instance hack? Another question: has anonymous done any major cyber attacks lately?

I learned Perl when I did sys admin. These days I mostly use MATLAB combined with a few C functions (MEX compiler) for signal filtering and analysis. And I've been dabbling in Android dev, though I'm quickly coming to not like either Java or the platform.
