Python is a versatile programming language created by Guido van Rossum in 1991, used for web development, software development, mathematics, and system scripting. It allows for server-side web applications, database connections, big data handling, and rapid prototyping. Key concepts include indentation for code blocks, variable creation without explicit declaration, and various built-in data types such as strings, integers, and lists.

CORE PYTHON
WHAT IS PYTHON?
Python is a popular programming language. It was created
by Guido van Rossum, and released in 1991.
It is used for:
web development (server-side), software development, mathematics, system scripting. WHAT CAN PYTHON DO?
Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
Python can connect to database systems. It can also read
and modify files. Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics. Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production- ready software development. WHY PYTHON?

Indentation refers to the spaces at the beginning of
a code line. Where in other programming languages the indentation in code is for readability only, the indentation in Python is very important. Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code. PYTHON VARIABLES
Variables are containers for storing data values.
Python has no command for declaring a variable.
A variable is created the moment you first assign a
value to it. If you want to specify the data type of a variable, this can be done with casting. CASTING EXAMPLE
x = str(3) # x will be '3'
y = int(3) # y will be 3 z = float(3) # z will be 3.0 x = 5 y = "John" print(type(x)) print(type(y)) BUILT-IN DATA TYPES
In programming, data type is an important
concept. Text Type: str Variables can store data of different Numeric Types: types, int, float, complexand
