Important Keywords
Informatics Practices Code 165
Here are some important keywords in Python:
1. *False:* Boolean value representing false.
2. *True:* Boolean value representing true.
3. *None:* Represents the absence of a value or a null value.
4. *and:* Used as a logical operator to combine multiple
conditions, resulting in true only if both conditions are true.
5. *or:* Another logical operator used to combine multiple
conditions, resulting in true if at least one condition is true.
6. *not:* A logical operator used to negate the value of a boolean
expression.
7. *if:* Introduces a conditional statement that executes a block of
code if a specified condition is true.
8. *else:* Part of a conditional statement that specifies the block
of code to be executed if the condition in the if statement is false.
9. *elif:* Stands for "else if" and is used to introduce additional
conditional statements in a chain of if-else blocks. 10. *for:* Initiates a loop that iterates over a sequence of elements (e.g., a list, tuple, or string).
11. *while:* Introduces a loop that continues to execute a block of
code as long as a specified condition is true.
12. *def:* Used to define a function in Python.
13. *return:* Used in a function to specify the value to be returned
after the function is called.
14. *import:* Allows the inclusion of modules or packages in a
Python program. It is used to access the functionality of external libraries.
15. *from:* Often used in combination with import to specify which
module or specific elements from a module should be imported.
16. *as:* Can be used with import to assign a different name to
the imported module or elements for ease of use.
17. *class:* Used to define a new class in Python, which serves
as a blueprint for creating objects.
18. *try:* Initiates a block of code for exception handling, where
potential errors are anticipated and handled.
19. *except:* Part of the try-except block, used to specify the code to be executed if a particular exception occurs.
20. *finally:* Introduces a block of code that is guaranteed to be
executed after a try-except block, regardless of whether an exception occurred.
21. *raise:* Used to explicitly raise an exception in a Python
program.
22. *assert:* A debugging aid that tests a condition as true. If the
condition is false, an assertion error is raised.
23. *global:* Indicates that a variable inside a function has global
scope, meaning it can be accessed and modified throughout the program.
24. *nonlocal:* Specifies that a variable inside a nested function
(a function defined within another function) is not local to the inner function, allowing it to be modified.
These keywords are fundamental to understanding the structure
and behavior of Python programs. If you have any specific questions about these keywords or if you want to delve deeper into any of them, feel free to ask!
