There are many ani packages supporting python script.
My question is:
What's the benefit in scripting with Python in H9?
Could someone provide your experience or opinion about it to me?
Thanks.

The benefit is that hscript - the *previous* scripting language - is deprecated and will not be extended to match new functions (?).
As python is supported by many applications you can use functions/libraries globally on your system. No need to implement the same stuff over and over again.

All you need to know on a beginning is in docs. Look on a page about HOM. From that it's just a matter of docstrings and classes reference - still not complete I'm afraid.

BTW I really like a doc page about HOM. I looks like a developer's nodes about his work but surprisingly it works! I simply enjoy reading it more than the official help .

There is the “python cookbook” in the help of 9.1
What exactly do you want to script?
Here's an example how to create a PythonSOP - which I wrote some time ago:

rdgWell, that and the fact that programming/scripting in hscript is insane/painful when you try to do anything even remotely complicated, and in Python it's easy.
