Basics of Python

Programming
-By Aditi Bhushan

Aditi Bhushan 1
UNIT – 2: PYTHON [REVISED SYLLABUS]
• TOTAL = 25/100 • data type conversion,
• Basics of Python programming, • debugging.
• Python interpreter - interactive and script
mode, • Control Statements: if-else, for loop
• the structure of a program, • Lists: list operations - creating,
• indentation,
initializing, traversing and
manipulating lists, list methods and
• identifiers, keywords, constants, variables, built-in functions.
• types of operators, precedence of operators, • Dictionary: concept of key-value pair,
• data types, mutable and immutable data creating, initializing, traversing,
types, updating and deleting elements,
• statements, expressions, evaluation and dictionary methods and built-in
comments, input and output statements functions.

Introduction to Python
Version Python 3 or Python 3.7.0 or Latest Version: Python 3.8.5

Why Python? (for understanding purpose, not
for evaluation)
• Powerful Language
• Supports “Scripting Language”
• Concise Formatting Style of Language
• Every Value is an Object.
• Supports iteration and abstractions – thereby making
generics easy with dynamic typing

Aditi Bhushan 4
Language Features (for understanding
purpose, not for evaluation)
• Supports Indentation instead of braces
• Powerful subscripting (slicing)
• Functions are independent entities (not all functions are methods)
• Exceptions as in Java
• Simple object system
• Iterators (like Java) and generators
• Several sequence types
• Strings ’…’: made of characters, immutable
• Lists […]: made of anything, mutable
• Tuples (…) : made of anything, immutable

Basics of Python
• Created by Guido van Rossum in 1991
• Object Oriented Programming
• Uses: software development, web development, scientific computing,
big data and artificial intelligence
• Download Latest Version of Python IDE from:
https://www.python.org/
• Online Editor for Python:
https://www.onlinegdb.com/online_python_compiler

Installation
• Python is pre-installed on most Unix systems,
including Linux and MAC OS X
• Python comes with a large library of standard modules
• There are several options for an IDE
• IDLE – works well with Windows
• Emacs with python-mode or your favorite text editor
• Eclipse with PyDev (http://pydev.sourceforge.net/ )
• PyCharm (https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/)

Starting with Python
Installation Steps (Please Find attached the Pics)
1. Put a tick mark on Add Path

2. Change Custom Path (Optional)

IDLE Development Environment
• IDLE is an Integrated DeveLopment Environment for Python, typically
used on Windows
• Multi-window text editor with
• syntax highlighting,
• auto-completion,
• smart indention
• Integrated debugger with
• stepping,
• persistent breakpoints,
• call stack visibility

Windows IDLE

Python Interpreter
To write and run (execute) a Python program, we need to have a
✓ Python interpreter installed on our computer or
✓ any online Python interpreter. The interpreter is also called Python shell.
Here, the symbol >>> is called Python prompt, which indicates that the
interpreter is ready to receive instructions.

Execution Modes
INTERACTIVE MODE SCRIPT MODE
• Single line code for instant • Python Program/Scripts are written

• Good for beginners at starting. • Good for bigger programs or
• We cannot save the statements for professionals.
further use. • We can Save and Reuse them.
Consist of built-in editors known as
IDLE.
• By default, the Python scripts are
saved in the Python installation
folder.
Aditi Bhushan 12
COMMENTS
• Start comments with #, rest of line is ignored
• Can include “string” as the first line of a new function.
• Development environments, debugger, and other tools use it: it’s
good style to include one
def fact(n):
“““fact(n) assumes n is a positive integer and
returns factorial of n.”””
assert(n>0)
return 1 if n==1 else n*fact(n-1)
