Maybe. It's probably more likely that he have stumbled upon this: http://wwwu.edu.uni-klu.ac.at/epirker/unix/hacker-howto.html , or any other version (That's my favourite, by the way). It says that Python is a good program to start with on the journey to become a hacker. Gasten -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I saw this poor schmuck on "Want to be a millionaire" once. His second question was "What is a hacker?" I don't remember all of the alternatives but two of them was "A computer programmer" and "Someone illegally using a computer". He answered 'computer programmer'... guess what was the 'correct one'. I guess he was lucky though... it could have been the one million question. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If you mean hacking as cracking into computer systems, then what's the difference if it's with Python or anything else.

Re: Hacking in python
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_%28disambiguation%29 Educate yourself on what hacking actually is. We're all hackers, because it just means we get the most out of code, enjoy pushing our technology to the limit, and generally love programming. The term has been abused by the media and you don't do much more than show your own naiveness by asking such a question. You also do a great job of insulting everyone on this list.
