WHAT IS PYTHON?

• Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world.


• Its one of the languages that has the easiest syntax
• It provides user-friendly syntax because it resembles the natural English
language.
• It can be integrated into any project and used to solve advanced
problems.
APPLICATIONS OF PYTHON PROGRAMMING
PYTHON SYNTAX

• Python Indentation
• Indentation refers to the spaces at the beginning of a code line.
• Where in other programming languages the indentation in code is for
readability only, the indentation in Python is very important.
• Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code.
• Python Variables
• In Python, variables are created when you assign a value to it:
• Comments
• Comments can be used to explain Python code.
• Comments can be used to make the code more readable.
• Comments can be used to prevent execution when testing code.
• Python has commenting capability for the purpose of in-code
documentation.
• Comments start with a #, and Python will render the rest of the line as a
comment:
•Variables
• Variables are containers for storing data values.

• Creating Variables
• Python has no command for declaring a variable.
• A variable is created the moment you first assign a value to it.
• Variable Names
• A variable can have a short name (like x and y) or a more descriptive
name (age, car_name, total_volume).
• Rules for Python variables:
• A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character
• A variable name cannot start with a number
• A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and
underscores (A-z, 0-9, and _ )
• Variable names are case-sensitive (age, Age and AGE are three different
variables)
