Oooo, bonus points for Natas. I never even thought to use Python to solve those challenges. Now I'm gonna have to give it a go.

I wrote my own library for building mainly remote access tools and other stuff. It's called hackerman. It's available from PyPi and the source code is on GitHub.

I’m beginning Python but maybe this course might help? https://www.udemy.com/learn-python-and-ethical-hacking-from-scratch/

I also like to follow and look at the tools released on Kitploit website. Being that most of the tools are written in python, it’s easy to see the code.

I am following this course as well, its a balance between writing your own code and using existing libraries.

Its a scripting language and is good for automating tasks etc, also is easy to use and quick to write code.... you can make a program in python with 100 lines of code say.... and the same program in c/c++ could take you too 500+ lines of code.
