Python Programming Language

Python Introduction:
Python is a high level, Interpreted, Interactive and Object-Oriented
Scripting Language.
Python is designed to be highly readable.

So, why is the python tutorial in the DevOps Book?

When we writing bash scripting for doing automation, slowly we

increased the complexity of our code. Our code became more and
more complex. Also, we don’t have any features in bash scripting
apart from just automating Linux tasks. Python is the easiest
programming language out there. Being easy it’s gives us lots of
feature and libraries Which extend the power of python. Python is
very extensible. We can use python to run Linux automation, Cloud
automation and several others. It is a very versatile in nature.

Python is Interpreted:
Python is processed at runtime by Interpreter. You don’t need to
compile your program before executing it. This is similar to PHP.

Python is Interactive:
You can actually sit at python prompt And Interact with the
Interpreter, directly to write your programs.

Python is Object Oriented:

Python Supports Object-Oriented Style or techniques of
programming that encapsulates code within the objects.

Python Supports the developments of wide range of applications.

from simple text processing to WWW browsers to games.

Installation of python:
• choco install python –pre

• Anaconda Distribution:

Python Operators:
• Operators are the constructs which can manipulate the value
of operands. Consider the expression 4 + 5 = 9
• Here, 4 and 5 are called as Operands and “+” is called as
Operator.

• Types of Operators:
• Arithmetic operators.

• Assignment operators.

• Comparison operators.

• Logical operators.

• Identity operators.

• Membership operators.

• Bitwise operators.

Loops:
Loops are used when you have a block of code that you want to
repeat it for fixed numbers of time or until a condition is not
satisfied.

While Loop:
Repeat the blocks of code until the while condition is true

Built-in Functions.
The Python interpreter has a number of functions and types built into it that are
always available. They are listed here in alphabetical order.

Functions in python:
• It is used for resuability of code .

• 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.
