Python Basics Summary

1. Keywords and Identifiers

Keywords are reserved words used by Python to define the syntax. Examples: if, else, while, def.

Identifiers are names for variables, functions, classes, etc. They cannot start with a digit or use special

characters.

2. Variables and Datatypes

Variables store data values. Python datatypes include:

- int: Integer numbers

- float: Decimal numbers

- str: Text

- list: Mutable sequence

- tuple: Immutable sequence

- set: Unordered, unique items

- dict: Key-value pairs

- None: Represents no value

3. Python Operators

- Arithmetic: +, -, *, /, //, %, **

- Comparison: ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=

- Logical: and, or, not

- Assignment: =, +=, -=, *=, /=

4. Input/Output

Use input() to take user input and print() to display output.

Example: name = input('Enter name: ')

5. Type Conversion

Implicit: Python auto-converts types.

Explicit: Use int(), float(), str(), etc. to convert between types.


Python Basics Summary

6. Strings

Strings are ordered sequences of characters. Enclosed in single or double quotes. Supports indexing, slicing,

and methods like .upper(), .lower(), .replace().

7. Lists

Lists are mutable, ordered collections. Syntax: [1, 2, 3]

Methods: append(), insert(), remove(), pop(), extend(), sort(), reverse().

8. Tuples

Tuples are immutable, ordered collections. Syntax: (1, 2, 3)

Use indexing to access elements. Cannot modify after creation.

9. Dictionaries

Dictionaries are unordered collections of key-value pairs. Syntax: {key: value}

Access with keys, e.g., d['name'] = 'John'.

10. Sets

Sets are unordered collections with no duplicate items. Syntax: {1, 2, 3}

Support set operations like union, intersection, difference.
