Tell us about Python — what did you write, what libraries did you use?

In Python, I wrote scripts for automating tasks, data processing, and system monitoring. I used standard libraries such as os, sys, subprocess for interacting with the OS, as well as requests for working with HTTP requests.

For more complex tasks, I employed libraries:

• paramiko for SSH connections and remote server management.
• pytest for writing and running tests.
• pandas and numpy for data processing and analysis.
• boto3 for interacting with AWS.

Here's an example of a simple script to check server availability:

import requests

def check_server(url):
    try:
        response = requests.get(url, timeout=5)
        return response.status_code == 200
    except requests.RequestException:
        return False

if __name__ == '__main__':
    url = 'https://example.com'
    if check_server(url):
        print(f'Server {url} is up')
    else:
        print(f'Server {url} is down')
