Class 10 - Basic Coding in Python

Basic coding in Python can be summarized as follows: 1. Python is an interpreted language that directly executes instructions without needing compilation. It is also extensible to other languages like C and uses natural language elements, making it high-level. 2. Python code can be organized into modules to reuse across programs. Programs are also typically shorter to write in Python compared to languages like C or Java. 3. Python supports basic data types like strings, integers, floats, and booleans. Strings use quotation marks while other types do not. Concatenation can join strings using the + operator.

Basic coding in Python

[email protected]
Python

• an interpreted language (no compilation is necessary, directly executes instructions)

• is extensible to other languages (eg C)

• is a high-level language (eg. more intuitive, uses natural language elements)

• can be split into modules to reuse in other Python programes

• is (much) shorter to write than eg. C or Java


Python

1.Hello World

2.Strings
Python REPL
3.Functions
Read
4.Booleans Evaluate
Print
5.Loops Loop: get ready for the next input
Python: Data Types •stringwith
•string = anything = anything
" aroundwith
it is "aaround
string it is a string

1. strings = some text with no numerical value. e.g. "Hello World“: > anything with a “ sign is a string
2. int = A whole number. e.g. 3: > any integer number without “ sign
3 float = A decimal value e.g. 3.1415: > any decimal number without “ sign
4. bool = A Boolean value e.g. True or False: > Classifications without “ sign

Lexicon:

Int – integer
Bool – George Boole
Python: Data Types

1. strings = some text with no numerical value. e.g. "Hello World"


2. int = A whole number. e.g. 3
3 float = A decimal value e.g. 3.1415
4. bool = A Boolean value e.g. True or False
Strings

• A string in Python is a sequence of characters (text)

• A Python string needs quotes around it for it to be recognized: 'Hello, World‘

• Because of the quotes, Python understands this is a sequence of characters and not a command,
number, or variable

• Can use single or double quotes (but not 2 single quotes) around each letter

• English wording like ‘It’s‘ (it is) will cause syntax error sue to multiple single quotes in a string

• To get around, use backward slash: 'It↘’s’


Python : Hello, world / Input = name
Concatenation

1. Concatenation = to add strings


2. Place a + between strings

Hit

RUN
Concatenation :

Be mindful of the space (after hitting Space key) between asterisks and strings

Hit

RUN
Concatenation

• Concatenations (using +) a string with any other data type will give an error
• Turn the other data type into a string using [str] command (from string)

Hit

RUN

Insert your age


Boolean operators and conditional operators

Operator Meaning Hit


> greater than RUN
< smaller than
>= greater than or equal to

<= smaller than or equal to


== is equal
!= is not equal

Also work with strings of letters:

• Uppercase letters are ‘smaller’ than lowercase letters, eg: ‘M’ < ‘m’
• Digits are smaller than letters: ‘1’ < ‘a’
