ASP, JSP and PHP are Web templating languages. You would use them to 
write the front-end of a website but not to write a video game, a 
program that calculates taxes, payroll software, etc. Python is a 
general purpose programming language.

Can python be integrated with Dreamweaver? It depends. What are you 
trying to accomplish? You would not (usually) code Python in DreamWeaver 
the way you might code ASP or JSP in DreamWeaver because Python code 
does not (usually) reside in Web pages or Web templates and Dreamweaver 
is a Web page design tool.
