Introduction
Python (programming language)
Python is an interpreted, high-level and general-purpose programming language. Python's design
philosophy emphasizes code readability with its notable use of signi cant whitespace. Its
language constructs and object-oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical
code for small and large-scale projects.[28]
Python is dynamically typed and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms,
including structured (particularly, procedural), object-oriented, and functional programming. Python
is often described as a "batteries included" language due to its comprehensive standard library.[29]
Python was created in the late 1980s, and rst released in 1991, by Guido van Rossum as a
successor to the ABC programming language. Python 2.0, released in 2000, introduced new
features, such as list comprehensions, and a garbage collection system with reference counting. It
was discontinued as version 2.7 in 2020.[30] Python 3.0, released in 2008, was a major revision of
the language that is not completely backward-compatible and much Python 2 code does not run
unmodi ed on Python 3.
Python interpreters are available for many operating systems. A global community of programmers
develops and maintains CPython, a free and open-source[31] reference implementation. A non-
pro t organization, the Python Software Foundation, manages and directs resources for Python
and CPython development.
History
Python was conceived in the late 1980s[32] by Guido van Rossum at Centrum Wiskunde &
Informatica (CWI) in the Netherlands as a successor to the ABC programming language, which was
inspired by SETL),[33] capable of exception handling and interfacing with the Amoeba operating
system.[8] Its implementation began in December 1989.[34] Van Rossum shouldered sole
responsibility for the project, as the lead developer, until 12 July 2018, when he announced his
"permanent vacation" from his responsibilities as Python's Benevolent Dictator For Life, a title the
Python community bestowed upon him to re ect his long-term commitment as the project's chief
decision-maker.[35] He now shares his leadership as a member of a ve-person steering council.
[36][37][38] In January 2019, active Python core developers elected Brett Cannon, Nick Coghlan,
Barry Warsaw, Carol Willing and Van Rossum to a ve-member "Steering Council" to lead the
project.[39] Guido van Rossum has since then withdrawn his nomination for the 2020 Steering
council.[40]
Python 2.0 was released on 16 October 2000 with many major new features, including a cycle-
detecting garbage collector and support for Unicode.[41] More

My First Python Program
1 #Mi primer programa en Python
2 print("Hello World")
Hello World
Variables
Variables are the names you give to computer memory locations which are used to store values in
a computer program.
1 age = 20 #integer
2 price = 19.95 #Float
3 first_name = "Janner" #String
4 is_online = False #Boolean
5
6 print(age)
7 print(price)
8 print(first_name)
9 print(is_online)
20
19.95
Janner
False
Receiving Input
Input and output is terminology referring to the communication between a computer program and
its user. Input is the user giving something to the program, and output is the program giving
something to the user.

2 name = input("What is your name? ")
3 #We join the variable "name" to a new string and print
4 print("Hello " + name)
What is your name? Janner
Hello Janner
Type Conversion
In computer science, type conversion or typecasting refers to changing an entity of one datatype
into another.

Operator Precedence
In mathematics and computer programming, the order of operations (or operator precedence) is a
collection of rules that re ect conventions about which procedures to perform rst in order to
evaluate a given mathematical expression.
1 x = 10 + 3 * 2
2 x = (10 + 3) * 2
3 print(x)

Comparison Operators

Operators that compare values and return true or false . The operators include: > , < , >= , <= , === ,
and !== .

1 x = 3 > 2 #greater than
2 #x = 3 >= 2 #greater than or equal to
3 #x = 3 < 2 #less than

Logical Operators
A logical operator is a symbol or word used to connect two or more expressions such that the
value of the compound expression produced depends only on that of the original expressions and
on the meaning of the operator.
# and (both)
# or (at least one)
# not (negation)

If Statements
The if statement allows you to control if a program enters a section of code or not based on
whether a given condition is true or false. One of the important functions of the if statement is that
it allows the program to select an action based upon the user's input.
1 #If condition
2 temperature = 35
3
4 if temperature > 30:
5 print("It's a hot day")
6 print("Drink plenty of water")
It's a hot day
Drink plenty of water
1 #¿what happen here?
2 temperature = 25

4 if temperature > 30:
5 print("It's a hot day")
6 print("Drink plenty of water")
1 #Ok, is done!
2 temperature = 25
3
4 if temperature > 30:
5 print("It's a hot day")
6 print("Drink plenty of water")

code to be executed repeatedly based on a given Boolean condition.

collection of similar data items. The concept is similar to arrays in object-oriented programming.
List items can be written in a square bracket separated by commas.

For Loops
In computer science, a for-loop (or simply for loop) is a control ow statement for specifying
iteration, which allows code to be executed repeatedly. ... For-loops are typically used when the
number of iterations is known before entering the loop.
1 numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
2 print(numbers)
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
1 numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
