https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/

Code Example 1 - Hello, World!

>>> print "Hello, World!“

Math in Python

>>> 1 + 1

>>> 6-5

>>> 2*5

10

>>> 5**2

25

>>> 21/3

7
>>> 23%3

Python Operators

command name example output

+ Addition 4+5 9

- Subtraction 8-5 3

* Multiplication 4*5 20

/ Division 19/3 6

% Remainder 19%3 5

** Exponent 2**4 16

Order of Operations:

• parentheses ()
• exponents **
• multiplication *, division \, and remainder %
• addition + and subtraction -

Comments in Python:

>>> #I am a comment. I can say whatever I want!

Variables:

print "This program is a demo of variables"

v=1
print "The value of v is now", v

v=v+1

print "v now equals itself plus one, making it worth", v

print "to make v five times bigger, you would have to type v = v * 5"

v=v*5

print "there you go, now v equals", v, "and not", v / 5

Strings:

word1 = "Good"

word2 = "Morning"

word3 = "to you too!"

print word1, word2

sentence = word1 + " " + word2 + " " +word3

print sentence

Basic Mathematics & Conditional Statements in Python

Boolean operators:

Expression Function

< less than

<= less that or equal to

> greater than

>= greater than or equal to

!= not equal to

<> not equal to (alternate)

== equal to
Conditional Statements:

‘if' - Statement

y=1

if y == 1:

print "y still equals 1, I was just checking"

‘if - else' - Statement

a=1

if a > 5:

print "This shouldn't happen."

else:

print "This should happen."

‘elif' - Statement

z=4

if z > 70:

print "Something is very wrong"

elif z < 7:

print "This is normal"
