What is python..?
Python is general purpose interpreted, interactive, object-oriented and high level
programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum during 1985-90.
Python is a general purpose programming language that is often applied in scripting roles.
Python is designed to be highly readable.
It uses English keywords frequently where ae other languages use punctuation.
Scope of python
Science – Bioinformatics (It is a filed which uses computer software tools for understanding
biological data)
Web application Development
Testing scripts
System administration
Who uses python today…
Google makes extensive use of python in its web search system.
Intel, Cisco, IBM and many other MNC’s use python for hardware testing and web
application development.
The You tube video sharing service is largely written in python.
Why Python ..?
Designed to be easy to learn and master
Highly portable
Clean, clear syntax
Runs almost anywhere – high end servers and workstations
Easy to maintain – Python’s source code is fairly easy to maintain
Easy to read - Python code is more clearly defined and visible to the eyes.
Math(operators) in python
Add: +
Subtract: -
Divide: /
Multiply: *
print 3 + 12 >> 15
print 12 – 3 >> 9
print 12 + 3 -7 + 5 >> 13
print 3 * 12 >> 36
print 12.0/3.0 >> 4.0
print 2 < 3 True
print 2 != 3 True
Data type..
Booleans – either True or False
Numbers – can be integers (1 and 2), floats (1.1 and 2.1), fractions (1/2 and 2/3) or even
complex numbers.
Bytes and byte arrays – image file of any type jpg, jpeg etc
Lists – ordered sequences o values. e.g. ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
Tuples – ordered, immutable sequence of values . E.g. ("apple", "banana", "cherry")
Some examples of Data types..
String - “Hello”
Integer – 24
Float – 3.1415
List [“a”, “b”, “c”]
Python can tell the data type using type() function:
>>> print type(“Hello”)
Output – type ‘str”
Strings in python
May hold any data, including embedded nulls
Declared using either single, double or triple quotes
>>> s = “ Hello Class”
>>> s = ‘Hello Class’
Classes and Objects..
To create a class, use the keyword class
Class MyClass:
x=5
Now we can use the class named MyClass to create objects
Create an object named p, and print the value of x
P = MyClass()
Print (p.x)
Output - 5
Looping..
Python If..Else
An "if statement" is written by using the if keyword.
a = 33
b = 200
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
Note - Python relies on indentation (whitespace at the beginning of a line) to define scope in
the code. Other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose.
Output - b is greater than a
Elif
The elif keyword is pythons way of saying "if the previous conditions were not true, then try
this condition".
a = 33
b = 33
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
elif a == b:
print("a and b are equal")
Output - a and b are equal
Else
The else keyword catches anything which isn't caught by the preceding conditions.
a = 200
b = 33
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
elif a == b:
print("a and b are equal")
else:
print("a is greater than b")
Output - a is greater than b
We can also have an else without the elif :
a = 200
b = 33
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
else:
print("b is not greater than a")
Output - b is not greater than a
Python For loops..
A for loop is used for iterating over a sequence (that is either a list, a tuple, a dictionary, a
set, or a string).
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in fruits:
print(x)
Output - apple
banana
cherry
Looping Through a String
Loop through the letters in the word "banana":
for x in "banana":
print(x)
Output –
b
a
n
a
n
a
The break Statement
With the break statement we can stop the loop before it has looped through all the items:
Exit the loop when x is “banana”:
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for x in fruits:
print(x)
if x == "banana":
break
Output –
apple
banana
Thank You!
