Python/Coding in Equity Research?

Curious to hear if / how people are using Python or other languages in equity research?  Seems to definitely be useful for data scraping, but are there other ways people are using?  Currently an associate on the sell-side in Tech.


I am also second guessing the CFA track given the total amount of hours + the December exam likely getting canceled, and thinking it might be better spent learning Python.  Not sure if anyone else is in the same boat?
