Experiment 1: Python Indentation

Python is a simple programming language that encourages code without boilerplate. It can be used for web development, software development, mathematics, system scripting, handling big data, and rapid prototyping. Python uses indentation rather than brackets to group blocks of code. It has numeric, string, and boolean data types, and supports conditions and control flow statements like if/else and for loops. Functions allow reusable blocks of code that take in parameters and return values.

Experiment 1

Exploring and demonstrating Python

Python is a very simple language, and has a very straightforward


syntax. It encourages programmers to program without
boilerplate (prepared) code.

It is used for:

 Web development (server-side),


 Software development,
 Mathematics,
 System scripting
 Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
 Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
 Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and
modify files.
 Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex
mathematics.
 Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-
ready software development.

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. Python has no
command for declaring a variable.

Comments
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:

Python Numbers
There are three numeric types in Python:

 int
 float
 complex

Variables of numeric types are created when you assign a value to them:

String Literals
String literals in python are surrounded by either single quotation marks, or
double quotation marks.

'hello' is the same as "hello".

We can display a string literal with the print() function:

Python Conditions and If statements


Python supports the usual logical conditions from mathematics:

 Equals: a == b
 Not Equals: a != b
 Less than: a < b
 Less than or equal to: a <= b
 Greater than: a > b
 Greater than or equal to: a >= b

These conditions can be used in several ways, most commonly in "if


statements" and loops.An "if statement" is written by using the if keyword.

Python For Loops


A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence (that is either a list, a tuple, a
dictionary, a set, or a string).

This is less like the for keyword in other programming languages, and works


more like an iterator method as found in other object-orientated programming
languages.

With the for loop we can execute a set of statements, once for each item in a
list, tuple, set etc.

Python Functions
A function is a block of code which only runs when it is called.

You can pass data, known as parameters, into a function.

A function can return data as a result.
