Beginner's Guide to Python Programming
Introduction
Python is a powerful, easy-to-learn programming language used in web development, automation,
AI, and data science. Its clear syntax and massive library support make it ideal for beginners.
Basics
Python syntax is clean and intuitive.
- Variables: Store data like `x = 5`
- Data Types: int, float, str, list, dict
- Strings: `Hello`
- Input/Output: `input()`, `print()`
- Comments: Use `#` for single-line, triple quotes for multi-line.
Control Flow
Control structures let you guide the program flow.
- If-Else: `if x > 10: print('High')`
- Loops: `for` and `while` loops to iterate over items.
- Functions: Reusable blocks with `def` keyword.
- Indentation is key: 4 spaces are standard.
