Entering Expressions into the Interactive Shell : The Python interactive
shell is an ideal environment for experimenting and learning. You can launch the shell by typing python or python3 in your terminal or command prompt. You'll see a prompt (>>>) where you can enter expression. You can check the data type of a value using the type() function: Input Function: The input() function allows users to provide data. The entered name is stored in the variable name. Print Function: The print() function outputs text to the console. We concatenate strings to create a personalized greeting. Variable Usage: We use the variable name in the print() function to incorporate the user’s input into the message. The len() function returns the number of characters in the input string. Flow control determines the order in which statements are executed in a program based on certain conditions. Boolean values represent truth values: True or False. In Python, these are fundamental to controlling the flow of programs. Comparison operators are used to compare two values. They return a Boolean value (True or False). Here are the primary comparison operators: Equal to (==): Checks if two values are equal. Not equal to (!=): Checks if two values are not equal. Greater than (>): Checks if the left value is greater than the right. Less than (=): Checks if the left value is greater than or equal to the right. Less than or equal to (<=): Checks if the left value is less than or equal to the right. The three primary Boolean operators are: AND (and): Returns True if both operands are true. OR (or): Returns True if at least one operand is true. NOT (not): Inverts the Boolean value. If you need to terminate a program before it reaches the end, you can use sys.exit(). This is particularly useful in situations where an error occurs.
