I'm not sure a citation is strictly necessary for a programming
language, but if you want to you could cite the Python web site.
Would you cite JavaScript, CSS or HTML if you built a website?
Or SQL if you built a database?

If you used a particular tutorial to learn the language
you could cite that (either as a book or web site).
