Actually, an even more interesting question should be what you cannot
do with python.

Python is a general purpose language which can do everything from
desktop apps, web apps, scientific and statical apps, automation,
shell scripting, data analysis,
and even assembly level programming [1]

Python runs on everything from a 8 bit processor[2] to a supercomputer.

You might have heard about this site called Youtube.com where apparently
you can watch cats playing piano. It is written in Python.
