What coding language is this?

I keep looking through quite a few DLL files, and even EXE files, except when I put them in text format they just make no sense. Today, I was looking through the files of my installation of Python when I decided to go fishing in one of the DLL files. I chose this one:
C:\Python310\python310.dll\.rdata but when I opened the file up, I noticed that although yes there were some understandable characters in there, there were an absolute butt-ton of one that made absolutely no sense, not in English anyway. Can anyone help me out by telling me what language this is? I’ve been finding it everywhere and I don’t know if its compression or if its just some random language.

I’ve been looking everywhere to find the answer to this, but there is absolutely NOTHING anywhere telling me what it is. It doesn’t seem to be machine code and certainly not binary, so I’m stumped. Please help. Here is a little snippet of the code so you can see what I mean:

Thanks in advance,

DLL are object files. Just like an executable they are not written in clear text. So the content is not a programming language, it is just binary data.
