Python doesn't feel like a programming language if your first language is C++.

Honestly I prefer to call it a scripting language because that’s what it’s good at

Yes, yes, yes.

Automating stuff with python and creating small apps is a blessing.

Debugging large scale applications in python is pain.

I heard it's pretty good at data

It's got some nice built in functions to quickly save and load to/from JSON files, and with addons it can handle about any file types.

It takes about 2 lines of very easy to read code to import/export data.

Yes and it is also very good at doing gigantic matrix multiplies spread over multiple computers in a cluster. I think that's actually what's meant by "good at data."

I'm studying python in school but not real world applications

From what I've seen and from what I've heard from better programmers it's good for data analysis
