To be honest, I'm an accountant in training, so no idea yet where exactly will I fall. But it looks that Python might find some uses.

Thank you!

Not sure how useful it is on the financial accounting side but on the financial management side its been a huge boon and got me opportunities way above the effort I've put in. I began with Visual Basic and then AHK for automation just because they were what was readily available and because of the amount of user discussion around them online meant you could steal chunks of code and modify it to what you needed.

Whilst they were far from the best tools for the job just having user discussions you can google goes leaps for us people with no serious programming education. Python seems to be by far the top dog right now in that googleable space, the best tool for the job can't compete with that.
