SYLLABUS:
UNIT I DATA TYPES, EXPRESSIONS, STATEMENTS 9
Python interpreter and interactive mode, debugging; values and types: int, float, Boolean,
string, and list; variables, expressions, statements, tuple assignment, precedence of operators,
comments; Illustrative programs: exchange the values of two variables, circulate the values of n
variables, distance between two points.
UNIT II CONTROL FLOW 9
Conditionals: Boolean values and operators, conditional (if), alternative (if-else), chained
conditional (if-elif-else); Iteration: state, while, for, break, continue, pass; Illustrative problems:
Linear Search, Minimum in a List, square root, GCD, exponentiation, sum an array of numbers.
UNIT III FUNCTIONS AND STRINGS 9
Fruitful functions: return values, parameters, local and global scope, function composition,
recursion; Strings: string slices, immutability, string functions methods, string module; Lists as
arrays. Illustrative programs: String reverse, palindrome, binary search, Towers of Hanoi
UNIT IV LISTS, TUPLES, DICTIONARIES 9
Lists: list operations, list slices, list methods, list loop, mutability, aliasing, cloning lists, list
parameters; Tuples: tuple assignment, tuple as return value; Dictionaries: operations and
methods; advanced list processing - list comprehension; Illustrative programs: simple sorting,
histogram, Students marks statement, Retail bill preparation.

UNIT V FILES, MODULES, PACKAGES 9
