Python General and Specifc Notes

The document discusses Python concepts covered on Day 1 including: 1. Printing - Using print() to output text in the console. Strings must be enclosed in either single or double quotes. 2. String manipulation - Methods like \n for new lines and string concatenation + to join strings without spaces. Spaces can be added to strings. 3. Debugging - Finding and correcting errors like unexpected parentheses. 4. Commenting - Using # for single line comments and ''' for multi-line comments. 5. Variables - Assigning information to variables to reference later in code.

#Day 1(Printing,commenting,debugging,string manipulation,varaibles)

(Python notes)
1.printing: a code that simply prints what is written inside the
parentheses and output it in the console.

#General formula/Print(). #the code(print) is all in lower case


letters
✔ General notes/if you want to print a text in python you should

simply put two quotations inside the parentheses .

$this type of info(a text) in python language is called a string.


$ it has to be placed between to sets of quotations like this(“”)or
this(‘’).
$this info is not a code.

!if you forgot one of the quotations you will get the error message
That says{syntax error}when you run your piece of code.

make line of code that when it is excuted the


program Output these exact lines;
Day 1 - Python Print Function
The function is declared like this:
print(‘what to print’)
print(“Day 1 - Python Print Function”)
print(“The function is declared like this:”)
Print(“ print(‘what to print’) “)

#we changed the double quotes to single quoates of the string for a reason and that is if we didn’t do that the
program would give us an error message because it would read it this way:

Print(“ Print(“What to Print” ) ” )


String Code String
#Day 1(String manipulation) *spaces site.

2.String manipulation/there are many ways to manipulate the


“string” info type one of which is{we will arrange them in letters
starting from;}:
A.back slash and n ( \n): This allows as to print multiple strings
In different lines as long as!;

#the strings are separated by the (\n).


#within the same quotations.

Good to note;unless you want the console to print the string after
the(\n)with a space behind it you don’t want to press the space
button after the (\n).(tldr,don’t press space)

Ex/print(“hello\ndear\nbrother”)———>gives..hello
dear
brother
B.string concatenation(+):as the name suggests,it combine two
strings into one without spaces between the strings.
Ex/Print(“hello”+”world”)——>gives..helloworld
Good to note;to seprate two strings you can add spaces. there is 3
ways;

1.add the space to the end of first string Like this print(“hello “+”world”)
2.to the beginning of the first stringLike this print(“hello”+” world”)
3.add a space in the form of another string by
adding another (+) Like this print(“hello”+” “+”world”)
Space in the form of a string

!Spaces are important in python(not the spaces inside the strings)


But those that are within the code lines,So if you add a spcace
behind the (print)code you’ll get an {Indentation error!}.
#Day 1(Debugging,commenting)

3.debugging /is simply to correct an error within the code or


ironically a”bug” so the code returns to working normally.

!if you have an extra open parentheses you’ll get the error message
{syntax error;unexpected error while parsing}it simply means that
The computer would still expect you to continue then close the
statement.

*You can comment in python using two ways

# using the (#)before one line of comment


# using ‘’’ before and after multiple lines
#Day1(Variables)

4.variables/ this code assignes an info to a codeline(Varaible)so we


can use this info by refering to the variable name
#Day 1
#Day 1
(Python notes)
✔ General notes/*multiple function can be placed in single line
of code(so multiple function can be used together)

make a programme that calculates the lenth of


any name you input(avoid printing anything
except the lenth)
If you wrote the first line

2 ways
As input(“”) then assigned this line to
a variable
If you just put
Varaible=input

1.My_name = Input(“input the name”)


The programmecwill return the
message<abuilt-in function>
This can be avoided and should
always be remmbered as functions
always has to have a set of parenthesis
after them

Print(len(My_name))or
My_name=input(“the name”)
Lenght=len(My_name)
Print(length)
2. Input(“your name is:”)
Len(input(“your name”)
Print(len(input(“your name”) *this is the line of code we write in the shell
The above lines is to demonstrate how python is
reading and excuting the code
