Is Python suitable for scientific computing algorithms?

My interests in programming are mainly in algorithms, and lately I have seen many reputable researchers write a lot of their code in python. How simple and convenient is python for scientific computing? Does it have an algorithm library that compares with Matlab? Is Python a script or is it compiling? Is this a great language for prototyping an algorithm? How long will it take me to learn this productively enough if I know that C is good and OO programming? OO founded?

Sorry for the concise format of the questions, but I am very curious and hoped that a more experienced programmer could help me.

How simple and convenient is python for scientific computing?

Highly! You should try attending SciPy conferences (every year there in the USA and one in Europe) to get a real feel for this, but even the rest of the site scipy.orgshould give you some impression.

Does he have a library of algorithms that compares with Matlab?

I don't know matlab, but the number of things available in / for Python varies.

Is Python a script or is it compiling?

Python is a language, and it offers many implementations (all open source).
