Pythons
Pythons are a family of non-venomous snakes that are native to Africa, Asia and Australia. Pythons are ambush predators that use constriction to kill their prey. Unlike female boas, female pythons lay eggs. Pythons are hunted for their skin, which is used, like leather, to make shoes, handbags and other fashion accessories.

Is a reticulated python and burmese python the same?
No a reticulated python and a Burmese python are different snakes. Both are found close together in nature (S.E. Asia), though. The Burmese doesn't quite reach the length of a reticulated python; however a Burmese python is a much heavier snake like the Anaconda. The Burmese's weight and girth it typically bigger than a reticulated python; however the reticulated python is the longest documented snake in existence. Both are absolutely beautiful animals, though. The reticulated python tends to be more aggressive a snake than the Burmese, however. But with regular handling from a young age, both can become very "handle-able". By nature, however, the Burmese is generally a more docile animal, especially if handled from an early age.

The (Asiatic) Reticulated Python (Python reticulatus) is a member of the Pythonidae family and has and average length of 15 ft. (4.57 m) to 25 ft. (7.62 m) however, it is possible for some to grow near 30 ft. (9.14 m) with a weight of 300lbs. (136.08 kg.), the largest was measured at 33 ft. (10.05 m), they can be located in Southeast Asia and can be found in the various Tropical Rainforest's which covers over 1.9 million sq. km (1.180,605 sq. mi.), a member of the Boa family the female can have as many as 100 eggs at a time (Average is 60 eggs)and the hatchlings are at least 2 ft. (61 cm) in length, life span of the python is 25 to 30 years. Dietconsists of small mammals and birds, the larger the python the larger the prey which include pigs, dogs, cats and primates, etc., the python ambushes it's prey, holds it with it's teeth and suffocates the victim with constriction rather then crushing it, after swallowing the prey whole digestion takes many days to several weeks depending on the size of the prey.
Code for factorial numbers in python?
Here is my code:
import math
num = int(input())
print(math.factorial(num))
I used a bit of a cheat and imported the math module though.
No, they are constrictors. Meaning they squeeze their prey to death, versus injecting venom into their preys' blood stream.
Depends on weight or length. For a Ball python with a length of 46 inches, it would take 45 seconds per meter. Depends on weight or length. For a Ball python with a length of 46 inches, it would take 45 seconds per meter.

What is the growth and development of ball pythons?
A typical hatch-ling ROYAL PYTHON (it's designated name from it's Latin name of Python Regius) is roughly 6-7 inches long at birth, and typically the diameter of a UK 10p piece at its thickest point.
Hatch-lings will grow fairly quickly during their first two years - attaining 24 inches in their first year, and around 40 inches by the end of their second year. Many of the hatch-lings I've bred are now well over 60 inches long and a diameter of roughly 4 inches at the thickest part of their bodies ! Royal Pythons reach sexual maturity at around three years old - producing typical clutches of 15-25 eggs.
of course, but the skunk might fend it off with his spray. All its really going to bite into is hairy creature full of stank juice. :D
Does a green tree python have teeth?
Yes! Green tree pythons are actually known to have the second largest teeth compared to body size of any non venomous snake! They are second only to the emerald tree boa.

probably not, the snake would find it hard to adapt into the environment because it was raised by a human and not by its mother.
