Python Programming Guide

Introduction to Python

Python is a powerful and easy-to-learn programming language. It has efficient high-level data structures

and a simple but effective approach to object-oriented programming. Python's elegant syntax and dynamic typing,

together with

its interpreted nature, make it an ideal language for scripting and rapid application development in many areas on most

platforms.

Basic Python Syntax

Python is easy to use and understand. Some key aspects of Python syntax include:

1. No need for semicolons (statements are terminated by new lines).

2. Indentation is used to denote code blocks (4 spaces are standard).

3. Variable declaration does not require a specific data type (Python is dynamically typed).

Example:

x=5

if x > 2:

print("x is greater than 2")

File Handling in Python

Python provides functions to create, read, update, and delete files.

The key methods used for file handling are open(), read(), write(), and close(). Here's an example:

Example:

# Open a file in write mode


with open('example.txt', 'w') as file:

file.write("This is a test file.")
