Class - VIII Chapter - 9 and 10 Python Language Notes:: Print ("Hello, World!") Hello, World!

This document provides notes on Python programming language concepts including variables, data types, operators, conditional statements, and loops. Python can be used for web development, software development, and mathematics. Key points covered include Python syntax, using comments, defining variables, different data types, comparison operators, if/else statements, while loops, for loops, and break and continue statements.

Class - VIII

Chapter - 9 and 10
PYTHON LANGUAGE
NOTES:

Python is a popular programming language.


Python can be used on a server to create web applications.

Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum, and released
in 1991.

It is used for:

 web development (server-side),


 software development,
 mathematics,
 system scripting.

>>> print("Hello, World!")


Hello, World!

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.

Creating a Comment

Comments starts with a #, and Python will ignore them:

>>> #This is a comment


print("Hello, World!")

x=5
y = "John"
print(x)
print(y)

x = str(3)
y = int(3)
z = float(3)
print(x)
print(y)
print(z)

Variable Names
A variable can have a short name (like x and y) or a more descriptive name (age, carname,
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)

myvar = "John"
my_var = "John"
print(myvar)

print(10 > 9)

print(10 == 9)

print(10 < 9)
Python divides the operators in the following groups:

 Arithmetic operators
 Assignment operators
 Comparison operators
 Logical operators
 Identity operators
 Membership operators
 Bitwise operators

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.

a = 33
b = 200
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")

a = 33
b = 33
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
elif a == b:
print("a and b are equal")

a = 200
b = 33
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
elif a == b:
print("a and b are equal")
else:
print("a is greater than b")

Python Loops

Python has two primitive loop commands:

 while loops
 for loops

The while Loop

With the while loop we can execute a set of statements as long as a condition is true.

WHILE LOOP

i=1
while i < 6:
print(i)
i += 1
The break Statement

With the break statement we can stop the loop even if the while condition is true:

i=1
while i < 16:
print(i)
if (i == 10):
break
i += 1

The continue Statement

With the continue statement we can stop the current iteration, and continue with the next:

Example

Continue to the next iteration if i is 3:


i=0
while i < 16:
i += 1
if i == 12:
continue
print(i)

Python For Loops

A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence.

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

Print each fruit in a fruit list:


fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in fruits:
print(x)
