This last part of the book wraps up with a single short chapter:
Chapter 24, Conclusion: Python and the Development Cycle
This chapter discusses Python's roles and scope. It returns to some of the broader ideas that were introduced in Chapter 1, with the added perspective afforded by the rest of the book. Much of this chapter is philosophical in nature, but it underscores some of the main reasons for using a tool like Python.
