Is it possible to write viruses in python?

Hello, I am interested in information security. I chose this direction only because
hacking interests me very much. However, I'm not going to become the most famous hacker,
I want to be a programmer who creates antiviruses, tests various sites, applications and online games for vulnerabilities, etc. And since I'm learning python, I'm wondering if it's possible to write a virus in python. In the toaster, they write what they can on that and write, list C, C ++, JS, Assembler, but I haven’t heard anything about python.
No one has listed python yet. And the following question arose: is it possible to write viruses in python, if so, which ones (trojans, worms)? Thanks in advance for your replies!

A virus can be written on anything. Both php and python are no exception. Only they will work only in their environment.

From scripting, most often they write in perl, bat, vb
They write little in python, because you need to pull the python interpreter in the installer, and it is not very small

Virus - only in languages ​​compiled into native machine code. Mostly in assembler and C. The fact is that a virus is a code that can write itself into almost a program that it finds on a disk. And writing code to an exe file is not at all the same as adding a script in php or python.
