Day - 2

Indentation:
Indentation refers to the space at the beginning of a code line
In other programming languages the indentation is only for code readability only, but in
python its very very important
Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code
If we dont use indentation it gives you an error

Variables:-
Creating Variables:
1) Python has no command for declaring variable
2) A variable is created the moment you assign a value to it

Variable names:
1) A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character
2) A variable name cannot start with a number
3) A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores(
A-z, 0-9 and _)
4) Variable names are case sensitive( AGE, age, Age, AGe, aGe all 5 different
variables)
5) A variable name cannot be any of the python keywords.

Multi-Words variable:
1) Camel Case - Each word, excerpt the first starts with a capital
(myVariableName)
2) Pascal Case - Each word starts capital letter (MyVariableName)
3) Snake case - Each word is separated by an underscore character
(my_variable_name)

Assigning Multiple Values:


1) Many values to multiple variables
Python allows you to assign values to multiple variables in a single line
X, x, Age = 10, 11, 12
2) One value to multiple variables
X=x=Age=10
3) Output variables
Python print() function is often used to output variables

In the print() function, you output multiple variables, separated by a comma


X, x, age = “python”, “is”, 30
print(X, x, age)

You can also use the + operator to output multiple variables


X, x, Age = ‘Python”, “Is”, “Awesome”
print(X+x+Age)

Types of variables:
1) Local Variable - Variables that are created inside a function and only can
be called for tasks inside the function
2) Global Variable - Variables that are created outside of a function are
known as global variables ( as in all the examples in the previous cases)

What if I want to convert a certain local variable to global?


We can use the global keyword to create a global variable inside your own function
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
def myfunc():
Global x
x = 10

print(x)

myfunc()

print(x)
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Built in data types:


1) Text Type - str (strings) ..
2) Numeric Type - int (integer), float(decimals), complex ..
3) Sequenced type - list, tuple, *range
4) Mapping type - dict(dictionaries)
5) Set type - set, *frozenset
6) Boolean type - bool(true or false)
7) *binary type - bytes, bytearray, memoryview
8) *nonetype - NoneType

Python Casting:-
Specify a variable type:
When you want to specify a type on to a variable, this is done by casting.
Casting in python is done using constructor functions:
1) int() - constructs an integer number from an integer literal, a float literal(by
removing all decimals), or a string literal(providing the string represents a whole
number).
2) float() - constructs a float number from an integer literal, a float literal or a
string literal (providing the string represents either an integer or a float)
3) str() - constructs a string from a wide variety of data types, including integers,
float literals or integer literals

-> int to float


-> int to complex are possible
-> float to int
-> float to complex

But, complex to int or complex to float is absolutely not possible (you cannot convert
complex to any number type)

x = 1 #x will be 1
y = int(2.8) # y will be 2
z = int(“#”) # z will be 3

Integer:
Int or integer is a whole number either positive or negative, without decimals, of
unlimited length
Ex - 1, 3565622488771, -738573573848734

Float:
Float, or “floating point number” is a number, positive or negative, containing one or
more decimals
Ex - 1.10, 1.0, -35.69
Floats can also be scientific numbers with a “e” (euler’s constant) to indicate the
power of 10.
Ex - 35e3, 12E4, -87.7e100
( “e”, or “E” its the same when mentioning scientific numbers in float and python)

Complex:
Complex numbers are written with a “j” as the imaginary part
Ex - 3+5j, 5j, -5j
