Monty Python
Monty Python (sometimes known as The Pythons) was a British surreal comedy group who created their influential Monty Python's Flying Circus, a British television comedy sketch show that first aired on the BBC on 5 October 1969. Forty-five episodes were made over four series. The Python phenomenon developed from the television series into something larger in scope and impact, spawning touring stage shows, films, numerous albums, several books and a stage musical as well as launching the members to individual stardom. The group's influence on comedy has been compared to The Beatles' influence on music.

What do you know about Python programming?
Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or glue language to connect existing components together. Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.

Often, programmers fall in love with Python because of the increased productivity it provides. Since there is no compilation step, the edit-test-debug cycle is incredibly fast. Debugging Python programs is easy: a bug or bad input will never cause a segmentation fault. Instead, when the interpreter discovers an error, it raises an exception. When the program doesn't catch the exception, the interpreter prints a stack trace. A source level debugger allows inspection of local and global variables, evaluation of arbitrary expressions, setting breakpoints, stepping through the code a line at a time, and so on. The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python's introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.

According to my knowledge, the holy grail was the cup used in the last meal Jesus had with his apostles.
According to some sources,the cup that Jesus drank from at the last supper was known as the holy grail.According to other sources,the holy grail was the cup that was used to catch the blood from the wound inflicted by the centurian Longinus on Jesus as he hung upon the cross.Joseph of Arimathea is said to have arrived in Kinlochard SCOTLAND (FK8 3TW) in the first century A.D He is said to have brought the holy grail with him together with two bottles containing the blod and the sweat of Jesus.The grail was handed down from generation to generation and then became the center of a quest that was central to the Arthurian saga.Galahad eventually finding it.However,the basis of the idea of a quest for some kind of vessel appears to have come from Celtic traditions.It may be connected with the journey to the otherworld to find a magic cauldron.
let me correct you,......the holy grail was not the "cup of Christ". it was Mary Magdalene herself....though the legend tell us that the Holy Grail is a chalice - a cup. but the Grail's description as chalice is actually an allegory to hide the true nature of Grail. the legend used it as a metaphor for a woman ! and this woman carried a secret so powerful that if revealed, it could devastate the very foundation of Christianity..! you can see this proof in the painting The Last Supper. the figure to Jesus' immediate right you can see a delicate body with folded hands and flowing red hair is Mary Magdalene herself.
