তিন ধরণের মডিউল হতে পারে। কিছু মডিউল যেগুলো পাইথনের সাথে বিল্ট-ইন আছে, কিছু আছে যেগুলো অন্য কোন ডেভেলপের তৈরি করেছে, এবং কিছু হতে পারে আপনার নিজের তৈরি। প্রথম ধরণের মডিউলকে বলা হয় স্ট্যান্ডার্ড লাইব্রেরি। অনেক অনেক এরকম লাইব্রেরীর মধ্যে কিছু হচ্ছে - string
, re
, datetime
, math
, random
, os
, multiprocessing
, subprocess
, socket
, email
, json
, doctest
, unittest
, pdb
, argparse
এবং sys
যেগুলোর মাধ্যমে খুব সহজেই স্ট্রিং পারসিং, ডাটা সিরিয়ালাইজেশন, টেস্টিং, ডিবাগিং, ডেট টাইম নিয়ে কাজ, কমান্ড লাইন আর্গুমেন্ট রিসিভ, ইমেইল পাঠানো ইত্যাদি অনেক অনেক কাজ করা যায়। সত্যি কথা বলতে - পাইথনের এই বিশাল পরিমাণ স্ট্যান্ডার্ড লাইব্রেরির কালেকশনের জন্যও এটি একটি অন্যতম জনপ্রিয় প্রোগ্রামিং ভাষা।
মজার ব্যাপার হচ্ছে কিছু কিছু মডিউল পাইথনে লেখা আবার কিছু কিছু মডিউল সি প্রোগ্রামিং ভাষায় লেখা। এই লিঙ্কে গেলে পাইথনের স্ট্যান্ডার্ড লাইব্রেরি গুলো সম্পর্কে আরও বিস্তারিত জানা যাবে। আপনাদের সুবিধার্থে লিঙ্ক সহ সেগুলোর লিস্ট নিচেও দেয়া হলঃ
