Introduction to Programming Languages

Programming languages are used to give instructions to computers. Some common programming
languages include Python, Java, C++, and JavaScript. Each language has its own syntax and use
cases.

Basic Programming Concepts

1. Variables - Containers for storing data values.


o Example in Python: x = 5
2. Data Types - Defines the type of data (e.g., integer, string, boolean).
o Example: name = "Alice" (string), age = 25 (integer)
3. Operators - Used for performing operations on variables and values.
o Example: sum = 10 + 5
4. Conditional Statements - Used to execute code based on conditions.
o Example in Python:
o if age >= 18:
o print("Adult")
o else:
o print("Minor")
5. Loops - Used for executing a block of code multiple times.
o Example in Python (for loop):
o for i in range(5):
o print(i)
o Example (while loop):
o i=0
o while i < 5:
o print(i)
o i += 1
6. Functions - Blocks of reusable code.
o Example:
o def greet(name):
o return "Hello, " + name
o print(greet("Alice"))

Conclusion
Understanding these fundamental programming concepts provides a strong foundation for
learning more advanced topics. Mastery of a programming language enables the development of
applications, websites, and software solutions.
