  1. That's what the compiler has already done in this video. If the author has put some logic in it (e.g. sum of squares modulus something), that would be way longer.

  2. Anything is slower in crooked hands. Python's strength is that everything it uses is already implemented in C libraries. Python just forwards the calls. And if something is not there, you should get it implemented in a C library before you could go ahead.

  3.  @TheBuilder it is one. It's designed for non-programmers: data scientists, sysadmins, etc. I once tried to implement a Python's math's factorial algorithm in Python itself. Got an awfully slow deficient implementation, even slower than brute force multiplication of numbers. This language is just a thin layer upon C libraries.
