a and b contain intergers or floating point values

Eg:
3+5j
10+5.5j
0.5+0.1j

In the real part if we use int value then we can specify that either by decimal,octal,binary
or hexa decimal form.
But imaginary part should be specified only by using decimal form.

>>> a=0B11+5j
>>> a
(3+5j)
>>> a=3+0B11j
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Even we can perform operations on complex type values.

>>> a=10+1.5j
>>> b=20+2.5j
>>> c=a+b
>>> print(c)
(30+4j)
>>> type(c)
<class 'complex'>

Note: Complex data type has some inbuilt attributes to retrieve the real part
and imaginary part

c=10.5+3.6j

c.real==>10.5
c.imag==>3.6

We can use complex type generally in scientific Applications and electrical

engineering Applications.

4.bool data type:

We can use this data type to represent boolean values.
The only allowed values for this data type are:
True and False

Internally Python represents True as 1 and False as 0

b=True
type(b) =>bool

Eg:
a=10
b=20
c=a<b
print(c)==>True

True+True==>2
True-False==>1

str type:
str represents String data type.

A String is a sequence of characters enclosed within single quotes or double quotes.

s1='durga'
s1="durga"

By using single quotes or double quotes we cannot represent multi line string literals.

s1="durga

 soft"

For this requirement we should go for triple single quotes(''') or triple double quotes(""")

s1='''durg
a
soft'''

s1="""durga
soft"""

We can also use triple quotes to use single quote or double quote in our String.

This is " character''' '

This i " Character '
We can embed one string in another string

'''This "Python class very helpful" for java students'''

Slicing of Strings:
slice means a piece
[ ] operator is called slice operator,which can be used to retrieve parts of String.
In Python Strings follows zero based index.
The index can be either +ve or -ve.
+ve index means forward direction from Left to Right
-ve index means backward direction from Right to Left

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1
d u r g a
0 1 2 3 4

>>> s="durga"

Note:
In Python the following data types are considered as Fundamental Data types

int
float
complex
bool
str

In Python,we can represent char values also by using str type and explicitly char type is
not available.

Eg:

>>> c='a'
>>> type(c)
<class 'str'>

long Data Type is available in Python2 but not in Python3. In Python3 long values also
we can represent by using int type only.

In Python we can present char Value also by using str Type and explicitly char Type is
not available.

 Type Casting
We can convert one type value to another type. This conversion is called Typecasting
or Type coersion.
The following are various inbuilt functions for type casting.

int()
float()
complex()
bool()
str()

1.int():

We can use this function to convert values from other types to int

Eg:

>>> int(123.987)
123
>>> int(10+5j)
TypeError: can't convert complex to int
>>> int(True)
1
>>> int(False)
0
>>> int("10")
10
>>> int("10.5")
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '10.5'
>>> int("ten")
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'ten'
>>> int("0B1111")
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0B1111'

Note:

We can convert from any type to int except complex type.

If we want to convert str type to int type, compulsary str should contain only integral
value and should be specified in base-10

2. float():

We can use float() function to convert other type values to float type.

>>> float(10)
10.0
>>> float(10+5j)
TypeError: can't convert complex to float
>>> float(True)
1.0
>>> float(False)
0.0
>>> float("10")
10.0
>>> float("10.5")
10.5
>>> float("ten")
ValueError: could not convert string to float: 'ten'
>>> float("0B1111")
ValueError: could not convert string to float: '0B1111'

Note:
We can convert any type value to float type except complex type.

Whenever we are trying to convert str type to float type compulsary str should be
either integral or floating point literal and should be specified only in base-10.

3.complex():

We can use complex() function to convert other types to complex type.

Form-1: complex(x)
We can use this function to convert x into complex number with real part x and
imaginary part 0.

Eg:

complex(10)==>10+0j
complex(10.5)===>10.5+0j
complex(True)==>1+0j
complex(False)==>0j
complex("10")==>10+0j
complex("10.5")==>10.5+0j
complex("ten")
ValueError: complex() arg is a malformed string

Form-2: complex(x,y)

We can use this method to convert x and y into complex number such that x will be
real part and y will be imaginary part.

Eg: complex(10,-2)==>10-2j
complex(True,False)==>1+0j

4. bool():

We can use this function to convert other type values to bool type.

Eg:

bool(0)==>False
bool(1)==>True
bool(10)===>True
bool(10.5)===>True
bool(0.178)==>True
bool(0.0)==>False
bool(10-2j)==>True
bool(0+1.5j)==>True
bool(0+0j)==>False
bool("True")==>True
bool("False")==>True
bool("")==>False

5. str():

We can use this method to convert other type values to str type

Eg:

>>> str(10)
'10'
>>> str(10.5)
'10.5'
>>> str(10+5j)
'(10+5j)'
>>> str(True)
'True'

Fundamental Data Types vs Immutability:

All Fundamental Data types are immutable. i.e once we creates an object,we cannot
perform any changes in that object. If we are trying to change then with those changes a
new object will be created. This non-chageable behaviour is called immutability.


21 DURGASOFT, # 202, 2nd Floor, HUDA Maitrivanam, Ameerpet, Hyderabad - 500038,
040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
In Python if a new object is required, then PVM wont create object immediately. First it will
check is any object available with the required content or not. If available then existing
object will be reused. If it is not available then only a new object will be created. The
advantage of this approach is memory utilization and performance will be improved.

But the problem in this approach is,several references pointing to the same object,by
using one reference if we are allowed to change the content in the existing object then
the remaining references will be effected. To prevent this immutability concept is
required. According to this once creates an object we are not allowed to change content.
If we are trying to change with those changes a new object will be created.

Eg:

1) >>> a=10
2) >>> b=10
3) >>> a is b
4) True
5) >>> id(a)
6) 1572353952
7) >>> id(b)
8) 1572353952
9) >>>

>>> a=10 >>> a=10+5j >>> a=True >>> a='durga'

>>> b=10 >>> b=10+5j >>> b=True >>> b='durga'

>>> id(a) >>> a is b >>> a is b >>> a is b

1572353952 False True True

>>> id(b) >>> id(a) >>> id(a) >>> id(a)

1572353952 15980256 1572172624 16378848

>>> a is b >>> id(b) >>> id(b) >>> id(b)

True 15979944 1572172624 16378848

bytes Data Type:

bytes data type represens a group of byte numbers just like an array.

Eg:

x = [10,20,30,40]
b = bytes(x)
type(b)==>bytes
print(b[0])==> 10
print(b[-1])==> 40
>>> for i in b : print(i)

10
20
30
40

Conclusion 1:

The only allowed values for byte data type are 0 to 256. By mistake if we are trying
to provide any other values then we will get value error.

Conclusion 2:

Once we creates bytes data type value, we cannot change its values,otherwise we will
get TypeError.

Eg:

>>> x=[10,20,30,40]
>>> b=bytes(x)
>>> b[0]=100
TypeError: 'bytes' object does not support item assignment

bytearray Data type:

bytearray is exactly same as bytes data type except that its elements can be modified.

Eg 1:

x=[10,20,30,40]
b = bytearray(x)
for i in b : print(i)
10

Eg 2:

>>> x =[10,256]
>>> b = bytearray(x)
ValueError: byte must be in range(0, 256)

list data type:

If we want to represent a group of values as a single entity where insertion order required
to preserve and duplicates are allowed then we should go for list data type.

insertion order is preserved

heterogeneous objects are allowed
duplicates are allowed
Growable in nature
values should be enclosed within square brackets.

Eg:

list=[10,10.5,'durga',True,10]
print(list) # [10,10.5,'durga',True,10]

Eg:

list=[10,20,30,40]
>>> list[0]
10
>>> list[-1]
40
>>> list[1:3]
[20, 30]
>>> list[0]=100
>>> for i in list:print(i)
...
100

 40

list is growable in nature. i.e based on our requirement we can increase or decrease the
size.

>>> list=[10,20,30]
>>> list.append("durga")
>>> list
[10, 20, 30, 'durga']
>>> list.remove(20)
>>> list
[10, 30, 'durga']
>>> list2=list*2
>>> list2
[10, 30, 'durga', 10, 30, 'durga']

Note: An ordered, mutable, heterogenous collection of eleemnts is nothing but list,

where duplicates also allowed.

tuple data type:

tuple data type is exactly same as list data type except that it is immutable.i.e we
cannot chage values.

Tuple elements can be represented within parenthesis.

Eg:

t=(10,20,30,40)
type(t)
<class 'tuple'>
t[0]=100
TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment
>>> t.append("durga")
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'append'
>>> t.remove(10)
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'remove'

Note: tuple is the read only version of list

range Data Type:

range Data Type represents a sequence of numbers.
The elements present in range Data type are not modifiable. i.e range Data type is
immutable.

Form-1: range(10)
generate numbers from 0 to 9

Eg:
r=range(10)
for i in r : print(i) 0 to 9

Form-2: range(10,20)

generate numbers fre not allowed

heterogeneous objects are allowed
index concept is not applicable
It is mutable collection
Growable in nature

Eg:

s={100,0,10,200,10,'durga'}
s # {0, 100, 'durga', 200, 10}
s[0] ==>TypeError: 'set' object does not support indexing

set is growable in nature, based on our requirement we can increase or decrease the size.

>>> s.add(60)
>>> s
{0, 100, 'durga', 200, 10, 60}
>>> s.remove(100)
>>> s
{0, 'durga', 200, 10, 60}

frozenset Data Type:

It is exactly same as set except that it is immutable.
Hence we cannot use add or remove functions.

>>> s={10,20,30,40}
>>> fs=frozenset(s)
>>> type(fs)
<class 'frozenset'>
>>> fs
frozenset({40, 10, 20, 30})
>>> for i in fs:print(i)
...

dict Data Type:

If we want to represent a group of values as key-value pairs then we should go for

dict data type.

Eg:
d={101:'durga',102:'ravi',103:'shiva'}

Duplicate keys are not allowed but values can be duplicated. If we are trying to insert
an entry with duplicate key then old value will be replaced with new value.

Eg:

>>> d={101:'durga',102:'ravi',103:'shiva'}
>>> d[101]='sunny'
>>> d
{101: 'sunny', 102: 'ravi', 103: 'shiva'}
5.
We can create empty dictionary as follows
d={ }
We can add key-value pairs as follows
d['a']='apple'
d['b']='banana'
print(d)

Note: dict is mutable and the order wont be preserved.

Note:

In general we can use bytes and bytearray data types to represent binary information
like images,video files etc
In Python2 long data type is available. But in Python3 it is not available and we can
represent long values also by using int type only.
In Python there is no char data type. Hence we can represent char values also by using
str type.

None Data Type:

None means Nothing or No value associated.

If the value is not available,then to handle such type of cases None introduced.
It is something like null value in Java.
Eg:
def m1():
a=10

print(m1())
None

Escape Characters:
In String literals we can use esacpe characters to associate a special meaning.

Operator is a symbol that performs certain operations.
Python provides the following set of operators

Arithmetic Operators
Relational Operators or Comparison Operators
Logical operators
Bitwise oeprators
Assignment operators
Special operators

1. Arithmetic Operators:
+ ==>Addition
- ==>Subtraction
* ==>Multiplication
==>Division operator %
===>Modulo operator

// ==>Floor Division operator

==>Exponent operator or power operator

Eg: test.py:

a=10
b=2
print('a+b=',a+b)
print('a-b=',a-b)
print('a*b=',a*b)
print('a/b=',a/b)
print('a//b=',a//b)
print('a%b=',a%b)
print('a**b=',a**b)

Python test.py or py test.py

a+b= 12
a-b= 8
a*b= 20
a/b= 5.0
a//b= 5
a%b= 0
a**b= 100

Eg:

a = 10.5
b=2
3)
a+b= 12.5
a-b= 8.5
a*b= 21.0
a/b= 5.25
a//b= 5.0
a%b= 0.5
a**b= 110.25

Eg:
10/2==>5.0
10//2==>5
10.0/2===>5.0
10.0//2===>5.0

Note: / operator always performs floating point arithmetic. Hence it will always
returns float value.

But Floor division (//) can perform both floating point and integral arithmetic. If
arguments are int type then result is int type. If atleast one argument is float type
then result is float type.

Note:

We can use +,* operators for str type also.

If we want to use + operator for str type then compulsory both arguments should be
str type only otherwise we will get error.

a >= b is False
a < b is True
a <= b is True

We can apply relational operators for str types also

Eg 2:

a="durga"
b="durga"
print("a > b is ",a>b)
print("a >= b is ",a>=b)
print("a < b is ",a<b)

 print("a <= b is ",a<=b)

a > b is False
a >= b is True
a < b is False
a <= b is True

Eg:

print(True>True) False
print(True>=True) True
print(10 >True) True
print(False > True) False

print(10>'durga')
TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'int' and 'str'

Eg:

a=10
b=20
if(a>b):
print("a is greater than b")
else:
print("a is not greater than b")

Outputa is not greater than b

Note: Chaining of relational operators is possible. In the chaining, if all comparisons

returns True then only result is True. If atleast one comparison returns False then the
result is False

Eg:

10<20 ==>True
10<20<30 ==>True
10<20<30<40 ==>True
10<20<30<40>50 ==>False

equality operators:
==,!=

We can apply these operators for any type even for incompatible types also

>>> 10==20
False
>>> 10!= 20

Note: Chaining concept is applicable for equality operators. If atleast one

comparison returns False then the result is False. otherwise the result is True.

Eg:

>>> 10==20==30==40
False
>>> 10==10==10==10
True

Logical Operators:
and, or ,not

We can apply for all types.

For boolean types behaviour:

and ==>If both arguments are True then only result is

True or ====>If atleast one arugemnt is True then result is
True not ==>complement

True and False ==>False

True or False ===>True
not False ==>True

For non-boolean types behaviour:

0 means False
non-zero means True
empty string is always treated as False

x and y:

==>if x is evaluates to false return x otherwise return y

10 and 20
0 and 20

If first argument is zero then result is zero otherwise result is y

x or y:

If x evaluates to True then result is x otherwise result is y

10 or 20 ==> 10
0 or 20 ==> 20

not x:

If x is evalutates to False then result is True otherwise False

Bitwise Operators:
We can apply these operators bitwise.
These operators are applicable only for int and boolean types.

If bits are different then only result is 1 otherwise result is 0
bitwise complement operator i.e 1 means 0 and 0 means 1
Bitwise Left shift Operator
Bitwise Right shift Operator

bitwise complement operator(~):

We have to apply complement for total bits.

Eg: print(~5) ==>-6

Note:
The most significant bit acts as sign bit. 0 value represents +ve number where as
1 represents -ve value.
positive numbers will be repesented directly in the memory where as -ve numbers will
be represented indirectly in 2's complement form.

Shift Operators:
<< Left shift operator
After shifting the empty cells we have to fill with zero

print(10<<2)==>40

print(True & False) ==>False

print(True | False) ===>True
print(True ^ False) ==>True
print(~True) ==>-2
print(True<<2) ==>4
print(True>>2) ==>0

Assignment Operators:
We can use assignment operator to assign value to the variable.

Eg:
x=10

We can combine asignment operator with some other operator to form

compound assignment operator.

Eg: x+=10 ====> x = x+10

The following is the list of all possible compound assignment operators in Python

+=
-=
*=
/=
%=
//=
**=
&=

Ternary Operator:
Syntax:
x = firstValue if condition else secondValue

If condition is True then firstValue will be considered else secondValue will be considered.

Eg 1:

a,b=10,20
x=30 if a<b else 40
print(x) #30

Eg 2: Read two numbers from the keyboard and print minimum value

a=int(input("Enter First Number:"))

b=int(input("Enter Second Number:"))
min=a if a<b else b
print("Minimum Value:",min)

Output:

Special operators:
Python defines the following 2 special operators

Identity Operators
Membership operators

1. Identity Operators
We can use identity operators for address comparison.
2 identity operators are available
is
is not

r1 is r2 returns True if both r1 and r2 are pointing to the same object

r1 is not r2 returns True if both r1 and r2 are not pointing to the same object

Eg:

a=10
b=10
3) print(a is b) True
x=True
y=True
6) print( x is y) True

Eg:

a="durga"
b="durga"
print(id(a))
print(id(b))
print(a is b)

Eg:

list1=["one","two","three"]
list2=["one","two","three"]
print(id(list1))
print(id(list2))
print(list1 is list2) False
print(list1 is not list2) True
7) print(list1 == list2) True

Note:
We can use is operator for address comparison where as == operator for
content comparison.

2. Membership operators:
We can use Membership operators to check whether the given object present in
the given collection.(It may be String,List,Set,Tuple or Dict)

in Returns True if the given object present in the specified Collection

not in Retruns True if the given object not present in the specified Collection
Eg:

x="hello learning Python is very easy!!!"

2) print('h' in x) True
3) print('d' in x) False
4) print('d' not in x) True
5) print('Python' in x) True

Eg:

list1=["sunny","bunny","chinny","pinny"]
print("sunny" in list1) True
print("tunny" in list1) False
print("tunny" not in list1) True

Operator Precedence:
If multiple operators present then which operator will be evaluated first is decided
by operator precedence.

Eg:

print(3+10*2) 23

print((3+10)*2) 26
The following list describes operator precedence in Python

 Mathematical Functions (math Module)
A Module is collection of functions, variables and classes etc.

math is a module that contains several functions to perform mathematical operations

If we want to use any module in Python, first we have to import that module.

import math

Once we import a module then we can call any function of that module.

import math
print(math.sqrt(16))
print(math.pi)

4.0
3.141592653589793

We can create alias name by using as keyword.

import math as m

Once we create alias name, by using that we can access functions and variables of that
module

import math as m
print(m.sqrt(16))
print(m.pi)

We can import a particular member of a module explicitly as follows

from math import sqrt

from math import sqrt,pi

If we import a member explicitly then it is not required to use module name

while accessing.

from math import sqrt,pi

print(sqrt(16))
print(pi)

print(math.pi) NameError: name 'math' is not defined

 Input And Output Statements
Reading dynamic input from the keyboard:

In Python 2 the following 2 functions are available to read dynamic input from
the keyboard.

raw_input()
input()

raw_input():

This function always reads the data from the keyboard in the form of String Format. We
have to convert that string type to our required type by using the corresponding type
casting methods.

Eg:
x=raw_input("Enter First Number:")
print(type(x)) It will always print str type only for any input type

2. input():

input() function can be used to read data directly in our required format.We are
not required to perform type casting.

x=input("Enter Value)
type(x)

10 ===> int
"durga"===>str
10.5===>float
True==>bool

***Note: But in Python 3 we have only input() method and raw_input() method is not
available.
Python3 input() function behaviour exactly same as raw_input() method of Python2. i.e
every input value is treated as str type only.

raw_input() function of Python 2 is renamed as input() function in Python3

Q. Write a program to read 2 numbers from the keyboard and print sum.

x=input("Enter First Number:")

y=input("Enter Second Number:")
i = int(x)
j = int(y)
print("The Sum:",i+j)

eval():
eval Function take a String and evaluate the Result.

Eg: x = eval(“10+20+30”)
print(x)

Output: 60

Eg: x = eval(input(“Enter Expression”))

Enter Expression: 10+2*3/4

print("Hello World")
We can use escape characters also
print("Hello \n World")

Note:
If both arguments are String type then + operator acts as concatenation operator.

If one argument is string type and second is any other type like int then we will get Error If

both arguments are number type then + operator acts as arithmetic addition operator.

Note:

print("Hello"+"World")
print("Hello","World")

HelloWorld

Form-3: print() with variable number of arguments:

a,b,c=10,20,30
print("The Values are :",a,b,c)

OutputThe Values are : 10 20 30

By default output values are seperated by space.If we want we can specify seperator
by using "sep" attribute

a,b,c=10,20,30
print(a,b,c,sep=',')
print(a,b,c,sep=':')

print("Soft")

Output: Hello Durga Soft

Note: The default value for end attribute is \n,which is nothing but new line character.

Form-5: print(object) statement:

We can pass any object (like list,tuple,set etc)as argument to the print() statement.

Eg:

l=[10,20,30,40]
t=(10,20,30,40)
print(l)
print(t)

Form-6: print(String,variable list):

We can use print() statement with String and any number of arguments.

Eg:

s="Durga"
a=48
s1="java"
s2="Python"
print("Hello",s,"Your Age is",a)
print("You are teaching",s1,"and",s2)

Output:

Hello Durga Your Age is 48

You are teaching java and Python

Form-7: print(formatted string):

%i====>int
%d====>int
%f=====>float
%s======>String type

Iterative Statements
If we want to execute a group of statements multiple times then we should go
for Iterative statements.

Python supports 2 types of iterative statements.

for loop
while loop

for loop:
If we want to execute some action for every element present in some sequence(it may
be string or collection)then we should go for for loop.

Syntax:

for x in sequence :
body

where sequence can be string or any collection.

Body will be executed for every element present in the sequence.

Eg 1: To print characters present in the given string

s="Sunny Leone"
for x in s :
print(x)
4)
Output
S
u
n
n
y
11)
L
e
o

Eg 2: To print characters present in string index wise:

s=input("Enter some String: ")

i=0
for x in s :
print("The character present at ",i,"index is :",x)
i=i+1
6)
7)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Enter some String: Sunny Leone
The character present at 0 index is : S
The character present at 1 index is : u
The character present at 2 index is : n
The character present at 3 index is : n
The character present at 4 index is : y
The character present at 5 index is :
The character present at 6 index is : L
The character present at 7 index is : e
The character present at 8 index is : o
The character present at 9 index is : n
The character present at 10 index is : e

Eg 3: To print Hello 10 times

for x in range(10) :
print("Hello")

Eg 4: To display numbers from 0 to 10

for x in range(11) :
print(x)

Eg 5: To display odd numbers from 0 to 20

for x in range(21) :
if (x%2!=0):
print(x)

Eg 6: To display numbers from 10 to 1 in descending order

for x in range(10,0,-1) :
print(x)

The Sum= 100
10)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Enter List:[45,67]
The Sum= 112

while loop:
If we want to execute a group of statements iteratively until some condition false,then
we should go for while loop.

Syntax:

while condition :
body

Eg: To print numbers from 1 to 10 by using while loop

x=1
while x <=10:
print(x)
x=x+1

Eg: To display the sum of first n numbers

n=int(input("Enter number:"))
sum=0
i=1
while i<=n:
sum=sum+i
i=i+1
print("The sum of first",n,"numbers is :",sum)

Eg: write a program to prompt user to enter some name until entering Durga

name=""
while name!="durga":
name=input("Enter Name:")
print("Thanks for confirmation")

Infinite Loops:
i=0;
while True :
i=i+1;
print("Hello",i)

Nested Loops:
Sometimes we can take a loop inside another loop,which are also known as nested loops.

Eg:

for i in range(4):
for j in range(4):
print("i=",i," j=",j)

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py

break:
We can use break statement inside loops to break loop execution based on
some condition.

loops with else block:

Inside loop execution,if break statement not executed ,then only else part will
be executed.

else means loop without break

Eg:

cart=[10,20,30,40,50]
for item in cart:
if item>=500:

Q. What is the difference between for loop and while loop in Python?

We can use loops to repeat code execution

Repeat code for every item in sequence ==>for loop
Repeat code as long as condition is true ==>while loop

How to exit from the loop? by

using break statement

How to skip some iterations inside loop?

by using continue statement.

When else part will be executed wrt loops? If

loop executed without break

pass statement:
pass is a keyword in Python.

In our programming syntactically if block is required which won't do anything then we

can define that empty block with pass keyword.

pass
|- It is an empty statement
|- It is null statement
|- It won't do anything

Eg:

if True:
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

if True: pass
==>valid

def m1():
SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

def m1(): pass

use case of pass:

Sometimes in the parent class we have to declare a function with empty body and child
class responsible to provide proper implementation. Such type of empty body we can
define by using pass keyword. (It is something like abstract method in java)

Eg:
def m1(): pass

Eg:

for i in range(100):

del statement:

del is a keyword in Python.

After using a variable, it is highly recommended to delete that variable if it is no

longer required,so that the corresponding object is eligible for Garbage Collection. We
can delete variable by using del keyword.

Eg:

x=10
print(x)
del x

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
After deleting a variable we cannot access that variable otherwise we will get NameError.

Eg:

x=10
del x
print(x)

NameError: name 'x' is not defined.

Note:
We can delete variables which are pointing to immutable objects.But we cannot delete
the elements present inside immutable object.

Eg:

s="durga"
print(s)
del s==>valid
del s[0] ==>TypeError: 'str' object doesn't support item deletion

Difference between del and None:

In the case del, the variable will be removed and we cannot access that
variable(unbind operation)

s="durga"
del s
print(s) ==>NameError: name 's' is not defined.

But in the case of None assignment the variable won't be removed but the
corresponding object is eligible for Garbage Collection(re bind operation). Hence after
assigning with None value,we can access that variable.

s="durga"
s=None
3) print(s) # None

 String Data Type
The most commonly used object in any project and in any programming language is String only.
Hence we should aware complete information about String data type.

What is String?
Any sequence of characters within either single quotes or double quotes is considered as a String.

Syntax:
s='durga'
s="durga"

Note: In most of other languges like C, C++,Java, a single character with in single quotes is
treated as char data type value. But in Python we are not having char data type.Hence it is
treated as String only.

Eg:
ch='a'
type(ch)
<class 'str'>

How to define multi-line String literals:

We can define multi-line String literals by using triple single or double quotes.

Eg:
s='''durga
software
solutions'''

We can also use triple quotes to use single quotes or double quotes as symbol inside String literal.

Eg:
s='This is ' single quote symbol' ==>invalid
s='This is \' single quote symbol' ==>valid
s="This is ' single quote symbol"====>valid
s='This is " double quotes symbol' ==>valid
s='The "Python Notes" by 'durga' is very helpful' ==>invalid
s="The "Python Notes" by 'durga' is very helpful"==>invalid
s='The \"Python Notes\" by \'durga\' is very helpful'
==>valid s='''The "Python Notes" by 'durga' is very helpful'''
==>valid

How to access characters of a String:

We can access characters of a string by using the following ways.

By using index
By using slice operator

1. By using index:

Python supports both +ve and -ve index.

+ve index means left to right(Forward direction)
-ve index means right to left(Backward direction)

Eg:
s='durga'

diagram

Eg:
s='durga'
s[0]
'd'
s[4]
'a'
s[-1]
'a'
s[10]
IndexError: string index out of range

Note: If we are trying to access characters of a string with out of range index then we will get
error saying : IndexError

Q. Write a program to accept some string from the keyboard and display its characters
by index wise(both positive and nEgative index)

test.py:

s=input("Enter Some String:")

i=0
for x in s:
print("The character present at positive index {} and at nEgative index {} is {}".format(i,i
-len(s),x))
i=i+1

Output:

The character present at positive index 0 and at nEgative index -5 is d
The character present at positive index 1 and at nEgative index -4 is u
The character present at positive index 2 and at nEgative index -3 is r
The character present at positive index 3 and at nEgative index -2 is g
The character present at positive index 4 and at nEgative index -1 is a

2. Accessing characters by using slice operator:

Syntax: s[bEginindex:endindex:step]

bEginindex:From where we have to consider slice(substring)

endindex: We have to terminate the slice(substring) at endindex-
1 step: incremented value

Note: If we are not specifying bEgin index then it will consider from bEginning of the string.
If we are not specifying end index then it will consider up to end of the string
The default value for step is 1

Eg:

>>> s="Learning Python is very very easy!!!"

>>> s[1:7:1]
'earnin'
>>> s[1:7]
'earnin'
>>> s[1:7:2]
'eri'
>>> s[:7]
'Learnin'
>>> s[7:]
'g Python is very very easy!!!'
>>> s[::]
'Learning Python is very very easy!!!'
>>> s[:]
'Learning Python is very very easy!!!'
>>> s[::-1]
'!!!ysae yrev yrev si nohtyP gninraeL'

Behaviour of slice operator:

s[bEgin:end:step]

step value can be either +ve or –ve

if +ve then it should be forward direction(left to right) and we have to consider bEgin to end-1

if -ve then it should be backward direction(right to left) and we have to consider bEgin to end+1

***Note:
In the backward direction if end value is -1 then result is always empty.
In the forward direction if end value is 0 then result is always empty.

In forward direction:
default value for bEgin: 0
default value for end: length of string
default value for step: +1

In backward direction:
default value for bEgin: -1
default value for end: -(length of string+1)

Note: Either forward or backward direction, we can take both +ve and -ve values for bEgin and
end index.

Mathematical Operators for String:

We can apply the following mathematical operators for Strings.

+ operator for concatenation

* operator for repetition

print("durga"+"soft") #durgasoft
print("durga"*2) #durgadurga

Note:
To use + operator for Strings, compulsory both arguments should be str type

To use * operator for Strings, compulsory one argument should be str and other argument
should be int

len() in-built function:

We can use len() function to find the number of characters present in the string.

Eg:
s='durga'
print(len(s)) #5

Q. Write a program to access each character of string in forward and backward
direction by using while loop?

s="Learning Python is very easy !!!"

n=len(s)
i=0
print("Forward direction")
while i<n:
print(s[i],end=' ')
i +=1
print("Backward direction")
i=-1
while i>=-n:
print(s[i],end=' ')
i=i-1

Alternative ways:

s="Learning Python is very easy !!!"

print("Forward direction")
for i in s:
print(i,end=' ')
5)
print("Forward direction")
for i in s[::]:
print(i,end=' ')
9)
print("Backward direction")
for i in s[::-1]:
print(i,end=' ')

Checking Membership:
We can check whether the character or string is the member of another string or not by using in
and not in operators

s='durga'
print('d' in s) #True
print('z' in s) #False

Program:

s=input("Enter main string:")

subs=input("Enter sub string:")
if subs in s:
print(subs,"is found in main string")
else:

Enter sub string:durga
durga is found in main string

D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter main string:durgasoftwaresolutions
Enter sub string:python
python is not found in main string

Comparison of Strings:
We can use comparison operators (<,<=,>,>=) and equality operators(==,!=) for strings.

Comparison will be performed based on alphabetical order.

Eg:

s1=input("Enter first string:")

s2=input("Enter Second string:")
if s1==s2:
print("Both strings are equal")
elif s1<s2:
print("First String is less than Second String")
else:
print("First String is greater than Second String")

Output:
D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter first string:durga
Enter Second string:durga
Both strings are equal

D:\python_classes>py test.py
emove spaces both sides

Eg:

city=input("Enter your city Name:")

scity=city.strip()
if scity=='Hyderabad':
print("Hello Hyderbadi..Adab")
elif scity=='Chennai':
print("Hello Madrasi...Vanakkam")
elif scity=="Bangalore":
print("Hello Kannadiga...Shubhodaya")
else:
print("your entered city is invalid")
Finding Substrings:
We can use the following 4 methods

For forward direction:

find()
index()

For backward direction:

rfind()
rindex()

1. find():
s.find(substring)

Returns index of first occurrence of the given substring. If it is not available then we will get -1

Eg:

s="Learning Python is very easy"

 print(s.find("Python")) #9
print(s.find("Java")) # -1
print(s.find("r"))#3
print(s.rfind("r"))#21

Note: By default find() method can search total string. We can also specify the boundaries to
search.

s.find(substring,bEgin,end)

It will always search from bEgin index to end-1 index

Eg:

s="durgaravipavanshiva"
print(s.find('a'))#4
print(s.find('a',7,15))#10
print(s.find('z',7,15))#-1

index() method:
index() method is exactly same as find() method except that if the specified substring is
not available then we will get ValueError.

Eg:

s=input("Enter main string:")

subs=input("Enter sub string:")
try:
n=s.index(subs)
except ValueError:
print("substring not found")
else:
print("substring found")

Output:
D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter main string:learning python is very easy
Enter sub string:python
substring found

D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter main string:learning python is very easy
Enter sub string:java

Q. Program to display all positions of substring in a given main string

s=input("Enter main string:")

subs=input("Enter sub string:")
flag=False
pos=-1
n=len(s)
while True:
pos=s.find(subs,pos+1,n)
if pos==-1:
break
print("Found at position",pos)
flag=True
if flag==False:
print("Not Found")

Output:

D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter main string:abbababababacdefg
Enter sub string:a
Found at position 0
Found at position 3

Found at position 7
Found at position 9
Found at position 11

D:\python_classes>py test.py
Enter main string:abbababababacdefg
Enter sub string:bb
Found at position 1

Counting substring in the given String:

We can find the number of occurrences of substring present in the given string by using count()
method.

s.count(substring) ==> It will search through out the string

s.count(substring, bEgin, end) ===> It will search from bEgin index to end-1 index

Eg:

s="abcabcabcabcadda"
print(s.count('a'))
print(s.count('ab'))
print(s.count('a',3,7))

Replacing a string with another string:

s.replace(oldstring,newstring)

inside s, every occurrence of oldstring will be replaced with newstring.

Eg1:
s="Learning Python is very difficult"
s1=s.replace("difficult","easy")
print(s1)

Output:
Learning Python is very easy

Eg2: All occurrences will be replaced

s="ababababababab"
s1=s.replace("a","b")
print(s1)

Output: bbbbbbbbbbbbbb

Q. String objects are immutable then how we can change the content
by using replace() method.

Once we creates string object, we cannot change the content.This non changeable behaviour is
nothing but immutability. If we are trying to change the content by using any method, then with
those changes a new object will be created and changes won't be happend in existing object.

Hence with replace() method also a new object got created but existing object won't be changed.

Eg:
s="abab"
s1=s.replace("a","b")
print(s,"is available at :",id(s))
print(s1,"is available at :",id(s1))

Output:
abab is available at : 4568672
bbbb is available at : 4568704

In the above example, original object is available and we can see new object which was created
because of replace() method.

Splitting of Strings:
We can split the given string according to specified seperator by using split() method.

l=s.split(seperator)

The default seperator is space. The return type of split() method is List

Eg1:

s="durga software solutions"

l=s.split()
for x in l:
print(x)

Output:
durga
software
solutions

Eg2:

s="22-02-2018"
l=s.split('-')
for x in l:
print(x)

Output:
22
02
2018

Joining of Strings:
We can join a group of strings(list or tuple) wrt the given seperator.

s=seperator.join(group of strings)

Eg:
t=('sunny','bunny','chinny')
s='-'.join(t)
print(s)

Output: sunny-bunny-chinny

Eg2:
l=['hyderabad','singapore','london','dubai']
s=':'.join(l)
print(s)

hyderabad:singapore:london:dubai

Changing case of a String:

We can change case of a string by using the following 4 methods.

upper()===>To convert all characters to upper case

lower() ===>To convert all characters to lower case
swapcase()===>converts all lower case characters to upper case and all upper case characters to
lower case
title() ===>To convert all character to title case. i.e first character in every word should be upper
case and all remaining characters should be in lower case.
capitalize() ==>Only first character will be converted to upper case and all remaining characters
can be converted to lower case

Eg:
s='learning Python is very Easy'
print(s.upper())
print(s.lower())
print(s.swapcase())
print(s.title())
print(s.capitalize())

Output:
LEARNING PYTHON IS VERY EASY
learning python is very easy
LEARNING pYTHON IS VERY eASY
Learning Python Is Very Easy
Learning python is very easy

Checking starting and ending part of the string:

Python contains the following methods for this purpose

s.startswith(substring)
s.endswith(substring)

Eg:
s='learning Python is very easy'
print(s.startswith('learning'))
print(s.endswith('learning'))
print(s.endswith('easy'))

Output:
True
False
True

To check type of characters present in a string:

Python contains the following methods for this purpose.

isalnum(): Returns True if all characters are alphanumeric( a to z , A to Z ,0 to9 )

isalpha(): Returns True if all characters are only alphabet symbols(a to z,A to Z)
isdigit(): Returns True if all characters are digits only( 0 to 9)
islower(): Returns True if all characters are lower case alphabet symbols
isupper(): Returns True if all characters are upper case aplhabet symbols
istitle(): Returns True if string is in title case
isspace(): Returns True if string contains only spaces

Eg:
print('Durga786'.isalnum()) #True
print('durga786'.isalpha()) #False
print('durga'.isalpha()) #True
print('durga'.isdigit()) #False
print('786786'.isdigit()) #True
print('abc'.islower()) #True
print('Abc'.islower()) #False
print('abc123'.islower()) #True
print('ABC'.isupper()) #True
print('Learning python is Easy'.istitle()) #False
print('Learning Python Is Easy'.istitle()) #True
print(' '.isspace()) #True

Demo Program:

s=input("Enter any character:")

if s.isalnum():
print("Alpha Numeric Character")
if s.isalpha():
print("Alphabet character")
if s.islower():

Formatting the Strings:

We can format the strings with variable values by using replacement operator {} and
format() method.

The main objective of format() method to format string into meaningful output form.

Case- 1: Basic Formatting for default, positional and keyword arguments

name='durga'
salary=10000
age=48
print("{} 's salary is {} and his age is {}".format(name,salary,age))
print("{0} 's salary is {1} and his age is {2}".format(name,salary,age))
print("{x} 's salary is {y} and his age is {z}".format(z=age,y=salary,x=name))

Output:
durga 's salary is 10000 and his age is 48
durga 's salary is 10000 and his age is 48
durga 's salary is 10000 and his age is 48

Case-2: Formatting Numbers

d--->Decimal IntEger
f----->Fixed point number(float).The default precision is 6
b-->Binary format
o--->Octal Format
x-->Hexa Decimal Format(Lower case)
X-->Hexa Decimal Format(Upper case)

Eg-1:
print("The intEger number is: {}".format(123))
print("The intEger number is: {:d}".format(123))
print("The intEger number is: {:5d}".format(123))
print("The intEger number is: {:05d}".format(123))

Output:
The intEger number is: 123
The intEger number is: 123
The intEger number is: 123
The intEger number is: 00123

Eg-2:
print("The float number is: {}".format(123.4567))
print("The float number is: {:f}".format(123.4567))

print("The float number is: {:08.3f}".format(123.45))
print("The float number is: {:08.3f}".format(786786123.45))

Output:
The float number is: 123.4567
The float number is: 123.456700
The float number is: 123.457
The float number is: 0123.457
The float number is: 0123.450
The float number is: 786786123.450

Note:
{:08.3f}

Total positions should be minimum 8.

After decimal point exactly 3 digits are allowed.If it is less then 0s will be placed in the
last positions
If total number is < 8 positions then 0 will be placed in MSBs
If total number is >8 positions then all intEgral digits will be considered.
The extra digits we can take only 0

Note: For numbers default alignment is Right Alignment(>)

Eg-3: Print Decimal value in binary, octal and hexadecimal form

print("Binary Form:{0:b}".format(153))
print("Octal Form:{0:o}".format(153))
print("Hexa decimal Form:{0:x}".format(154))
print("Hexa decimal Form:{0:X}".format(154))

Output:
Binary Form:10011001
Octal Form:231
Hexa decimal Form:9a
Hexa decimal Form:9A

Note: We can represent only int values in binary, octal and hexadecimal and it is not possible for
float values.

Note:
{:5d} It takes an intEger argument and assigns a minimum width of 5.
{:8.3f} It takes a float argument and assigns a minimum width of 8 including "." and after decimal
point excatly 3 digits are allowed with round operation if required {:05d} The blank places can be
filled with 0. In this place only 0 allowed.

While displaying positive numbers,if we want to include + then we have to write

{:+d} and {:+f}

int value with sign:+123
int value with sign:-123
float value with sign:+123.456000
float value with sign:-123.456000

Case-4: Number formatting with alignment

<,>,^ and = are used for alignment

<==>Left Alignment to the remaining space
^===>Center alignment to the remaining space
>===> Right alignment to the remaining space
===>Forces the signed(+) (-) to the left most position

Note: Default Alignment for numbers is Right Alignment.

Ex:

print("{:5d}".format(12))
print("{:<5d}".format(12))
print("{:<05d}".format(12))
print("{:>5d}".format(12))
print("{:>05d}".format(12))
print("{:^5d}".format(12))
print("{:=5d}".format(-12))
print("{:^10.3f}".format(12.23456))
print("{:=8.3f}".format(-12.23456))

Output:
12

Case-5: String formatting with format()

Similar to numbers, we can format String values also with format() method.

s.format(string)

Eg:

print("{:5d}".format(12))
print("{:5}".format("rat"))
print("{:>5}".format("rat"))
print("{:<5}".format("rat"))
print("{:^5}".format("rat"))
print("{:*^5}".format("rat")) #Instead of * we can use any character(like +,$,a etc)

Output:
12
rat
rat
rat
rat
*rat*

Note: For numbers default alignment is right where as for strings default alignment is left

Case-6: Truncating Strings with format() method

print("{:.3}".format("durgasoftware"))
print("{:5.3}".format("durgasoftware"))
print("{:>5.3}".format("durgasoftware"))
print("{:^5.3}".format("durgasoftware"))
print("{:*^5.3}".format("durgasoftware"))

Output:
dur
dur
dur
dur
*dur*

Case-7: Formatting dictionary members using format()

person={'age':48,'name':'durga'}
print("{p[name]}'s age is: {p[age]}".format(p=person))

Output:
durga's age is: 48
Note: p is alias name of dictionary
person dictionary we are passing as keyword argument

More convinient way is to use **person

Eg:

person={'age':48,'name':'durga'}
print("{name}'s age is: {age}".format(**person))

Output:
durga's age is: 48

Case-8: Formatting class members using format()

Eg:

class Person:
age=48
name="durga"
print("{p.name}'s age is :{p.age}".format(p=Person()))

Output:
durga's age is :48

Eg:

class Person:
def __init__(self,name,age):
self.name=name
self.age=age
print("{p.name}'s age is :{p.age}".format(p=Person('durga',48)))
print("{p.name}'s age is :{p.age}".format(p=Person('Ravi',50)))

Note: Here Person object is passed as keyword argument. We can access by using its
reference variable in the template string

Case-9: Dynamic Formatting using format()

string="{:{fill}{align}{width}}"
print(string.format('cat',fill='*',align='^',width=5))
print(string.format('cat',fill='*',align='^',width=6))
print(string.format('cat',fill='*',align='<',width=6))
print(string.format('cat',fill='*',align='>',width=6))

 List Data Structure
If we want to represent a group of individual objects as a single entity where
insertion order preserved and duplicates are allowed, then we should go for List.

insertion order preserved.

duplicate objects are allowed
heterogeneous objects are allowed.
List is dynamic because based on our requirement we can increase the size and
decrease the size.
In List the elements will be placed within square brackets and with comma seperator.

We can differentiate duplicate elements by using index and we can preserve

insertion order by using index. Hence index will play very important role.
Python supports both positive and negative indexes. +ve index means from left to right
where as negative index means right to left

[10,"A","B",20, 30, 10]

-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
10 A B 20 30 10
0 1 2 3 4 5

List objects are mutable.i.e we can change the content.

Creation of List Objects:

We can create empty list object as follows...

list=[]
print(list)
print(type(list))
4)
[]
<class 'list'>

If we know elements already then we can create list as follows

list=[10,20,30,40]

With dynamic input:

list=eval(input("Enter List:"))
print(list)
print(type(list))
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Enter List:[10,20,30,40]
[10, 20, 30, 40]
<class 'list'>

With list() function:

l=list(range(0,10,2))
print(l)
print(type(l))
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[0, 2, 4, 6, 8]
<class 'list'>

Eg:

s="durga"
l=list(s)
print(l)
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['d', 'u', 'r', 'g', 'a']

with split() function:

s="Learning Python is very very easy !!!"

l=s.split()
print(l)
print(type(l))
5)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['Learning', 'Python', 'is', 'very', 'very', 'easy', '!!!']
<class 'list'>

Note:

Sometimes we can take list inside another list,such type of lists are called nested
lists. [10,20,[30,40]]

Accessing elements of List:
We can access elements of the list either by using index or by using slice operator(:)

1. By using index:

List follows zero based index. ie index of first element is zero.

List supports both +ve and -ve indexes.
+ve index meant for Left to Right
-ve index meant for Right to Left

list=[10,20,30,40]

-4 -3 -2 -1
list 10 20 30 40
0 1 2 3

print(list[0]) ==>10
print(list[-1]) ==>40
print(list[10]) ==>IndexError: list index out of range

2. By using slice operator:

Syntax:

list2= list1[start:stop:step]

start ==>it indicates the index where slice has to

start default value is 0

stop ===>It indicates the index where slice has to end

default value is max allowed index of list ie length of the list

step ==>increment value

default value is 1

Eg:

n=[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
print(n[2:7:2])
print(n[4::2])
print(n[3:7])
print(n[8:2:-2])
print(n[4:100])

List vs mutability:
Once we creates a List object,we can modify its content. Hence List objects are mutable.

Eg:

n=[10,20,30,40]
print(n)
n[1]=777
print(n)
5)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[10, 20, 30, 40]
[10, 777, 30, 40]

Traversing the elements of List:

The sequential access of each element in the list is called traversal.

By using while loop:

n=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
i=0
while i<len(n):
print(n[i])
i=i+1

for i in range(x):
print(l[i],"is available at positive index: ",i,"and at negative index: ",i-x)

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py

Important functions of List:
I. To get information about list:

1. len():
returns the number of elements present in the list

Eg: n=[10,20,30,40]
print(len(n))==>4

2. count():
It returns the number of occurrences of specified item in the list

n=[1,2,2,2,2,3,3]
print(n.count(1))
print(n.count(2))
print(n.count(3))
print(n.count(4))

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
1
4
2
0

3. index() function:

returns the index of first occurrence of the specified item.

Eg:

n=[1,2,2,2,2,3,3]
print(n.index(1)) ==>0
print(n.index(2)) ==>1
print(n.index(3)) ==>5
5) print(n.index(4)) ==>ValueError: 4 is not in list

Note: If the specified element not present in the list then we will get ValueError.Hence
before index() method we have to check whether item present in the list or not by using
in operator.

print( 4 in n)==>False

II. Manipulating elements of List:

1. append() function:

We can use append() function to add item at the end of the list.

Eg:

list=[]
list.append("A")
list.append("B")
list.append("C")
print(list)
6)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['A', 'B', 'C']

Eg: To add all elements to list upto 100 which are divisible by 10

list=[]
for i in range(101):
if i%10==0:
list.append(i)
print(list)
6)
7)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100]

insert() function:

To insert item at specified index position

n=[1,2,3,4,5]
n.insert(1,888)
print(n)
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[1, 888, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Eg:

n=[1,2,3,4,5]
n.insert(10,777)
n.insert(-10,999)
print(n)
5)

 D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[999, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 777]

Note: If the specified index is greater than max index then element will be inserted at
last position. If the specified index is smaller than min index then element will be inserted
at first position.

Differences between append() and insert()

append() insert()
In List when we add any element it will In List we can insert any element in
come in last i.e. it will be last element. particular index number

3. extend() function:

To add all items of one list to another list

l1.extend(l2)
all items present in l2 will be added to l1

Eg:

order1=["Chicken","Mutton","Fish"]
order2=["RC","KF","FO"]
order1.extend(order2)
print(order1)
5)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['Chicken', 'Mutton', 'Fish', 'RC', 'KF', 'FO']

Eg:

order=["Chicken","Mutton","Fish"]
order.extend("Mushroom")
print(order)
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['Chicken', 'Mutton', 'Fish', 'M', 'u', 's', 'h', 'r', 'o', 'o', 'm']

remove() function:

We can use this function to remove specified item from the list.If the item
present multiple times then only first occurrence will be removed.

 n=[10,20,10,30]
n.remove(10)
print(n)
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[20, 10, 30]

If the specified item not present in list then we will get ValueError

n=[10,20,10,30]
n.remove(40)
print(n)
4)
ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list

Note: Hence before using remove() method first we have to check specified
element present in the list or not by using in operator.

5. pop() function:

It removes and returns the last element of the list.

This is only function which manipulates list and returns some element.

Eg:

n=[10,20,30,40]
print(n.pop())
print(n.pop())
print(n)
5)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
40
30
[10, 20]

If the list is empty then pop() function raises IndexError

Eg:

n=[]
2) print(n.pop()) ==> IndexError: pop from empty list

Note:

pop() is the only function which manipulates the list and returns some value
In general we can use append() and pop() functions to implement stack datastructure
by using list,which follows LIFO(Last In First Out) order.

In general we can use pop() function to remove last element of the list. But we can use
to remove elements based on index.

n.pop(index)===>To remove and return element present at specified

index. n.pop()==>To remove and return last element of the list

n=[10,20,30,40,50,60]
print(n.pop()) #60
print(n.pop(1)) #20
print(n.pop(10)) ==>IndexError: pop index out of range

Differences between remove() and pop()

remove() pop()
1) We can use to remove special element 1) We can use to remove last element
from the List. from the List.
2) It can’t return any value. 2) It returned removed element.
3) If special element not available then we 3) If List is empty then we get Error.
get VALUE ERROR.

Note:

List objects are dynamic. i.e based on our requirement we can increase and decrease
the size.

append(),insert() ,extend() ===>for increasing the size/growable nature

remove(), pop() ======>for decreasing the size /shrinking nature

III. Ordering elements of List:

1. reverse():

We can use to reverse() order of elements of list.

n=[10,20,30,40]
n.reverse()
print(n)
4)
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
[40, 30, 20, 10]

sort() function:

In list by default insertion order is preserved. If want to sort the elements of list
according to default natural sorting order then we should go for sort() method.

For numbers ==>default natural sorting order is Ascending Order

For Strings ==> default natural sorting order is Alphabetical Order

n=[20,5,15,10,0]
n.sort()
print(n) #[0,5,10,15,20]

s=["Dog","Banana","Cat","Apple"]
s.sort()
print(s) #['Apple','Banana','Cat','Dog']

Note: To use sort() function, compulsory list should contain only homogeneous
elements. otherwise we will get TypeError

Eg:

n=[20,10,"A","B"]
n.sort()
print(n)
4)
TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'

Note: In Python 2 if List contains both numbers and Strings then sort() function first
sort numbers followed by strings

n=[20,"B",10,"A"]
n.sort()

 print(n)# [10,20,'A','B']

But in Python 3 it is invalid.

To sort in reverse of default natural sorting order:

We can sort according to reverse of default natural sorting order by using reverse=True
argument.

Eg:

n=[40,10,30,20]
n.sort()
print(n) ==>[10,20,30,40]
n.sort(reverse=True)
print(n) ===>[40,30,20,10]
n.sort(reverse=False)
print(n) ==>[10,20,30,40]

Aliasing and Cloning of List objects:

The process of giving another reference variable to the existing list is called aliasing.

Eg:

x=[10,20,30,40]
2) y=x 10 20 30 40
3) print(id(x)) x
4) print(id(y)) y

The problem in this approach is by using one reference variable if we are changing
content,then those changes will be reflected to the other reference variable.

1) x=[10,20,30,40]
2) y=x 10 20 30 40
3) y[1]=777 x 777
4) print(x) ==>[10,777,30,40] y

To overcome this problem we should go for cloning.

The process of creating exactly duplicate independent object is called cloning.

We can implement cloning by using slice operator or by using copy() function

By using slice operator:

x=[10,20,30,40]
y=x[:]
y[1]=777
print(x) ==>[10,20,30,40]
print(y) ==>[10,777,30,40]

10 20 30 40
x

10 20 30 40
777
y

By using copy() function:

x=[10,20,30,40]
y=x.copy()
y[1]=777
print(x) ==>[10,20,30,40]
print(y) ==>[10,777,30,40]

10 20 30 40
x

10 20 30 40
777
y

Q. Difference between = operator and copy() function

operator meant for aliasing copy()

function meant for cloning

Using Mathematical operators for List Objects:
We can use + and * operators for List objects.

1. Concatenation operator(+):

We can use + to concatenate 2 lists into a single list

a=[10,20,30]
b=[40,50,60]
c=a+b
print(c) ==>[10,20,30,40,50,60]

Note: To use + operator compulsory both arguments should be list objects,otherwise

we will get TypeError.

Eg:

c=a+40 ==>TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "int") to list

c=a+[40] ==>valid

2. Repetition Operator(*):

We can use repetition operator * to repeat elements of list specified number of times

Eg:

x=[10,20,30]
y=x*3
print(y)==>[10,20,30,10,20,30,10,20,30]

Comparing List objects

We can use comparison operators for List objects.

Eg:

x=["Dog","Cat","Rat"]
y=["Dog","Cat","Rat"]
z=["DOG","CAT","RAT"]
print(x==y) True
print(x==z) False
6. print(x != z) True

Note:

Whenever we are using comparison operators(==,!=) for List objects then the following
should be considered
The number of elements
The order of elements
The content of elements (case sensitive)

Note: When ever we are using relatational operators(<,<=,>,>=) between List

objects,only first element comparison will be performed.

Eg:

x=[50,20,30]
y=[40,50,60,100,200]
print(x>y) True
print(x>=y) True
print(x<y) False
print(x<=y) False

Eg:

x=["Dog","Cat","Rat"]
y=["Rat","Cat","Dog"]
print(x>y) False
print(x>=y) False
print(x<y) True
print(x<=y) True

Membership operators:
We can check whether element is a member of the list or not by using
memebership operators.

in operator
not in operator

Eg:

n=[10,20,30,40]
print (10 in n)
print (10 not in n)
print (50 in n)
print (50 not in n)

Nested Lists:
Sometimes we can take one list inside another list. Such type of lists are called
nested lists.

Eg:

n=[10,20,[30,40]]
print(n)
print(n[0])
print(n[2])
print(n[2][0])
print(n[2][1])

Note: We can access nested list elements by using index just like accessing
multi dimensional array elements.

In Python we can represent matrix by using nested lists.

n=[[10,20,30],[40,50,60],[70,80,90]]
print(n)
print("Elements by Row wise:")
for r in n:
print(r)
print("Elements by Matrix style:")

List Comprehensions:
It is very easy and compact way of creating list objects from any iterable
objects(like list,tuple,dictionary,range etc) based on some condition.

Syntax:
list=[expression for item in list if condition]

Eg:

s=[ x*x for x in range(1,11)]

print(s)
v=[2**x for x in range(1,6)]
print(v)
m=[x for x in s if x%2==0]
print(m)

Tuple Data Structure
Tuple is exactly same as List except that it is immutable. i.e once we creates Tuple
object,we cannot perform any changes in that object.
Hence Tuple is Read Only version of List.
If our data is fixed and never changes then we should go for Tuple.
Insertion Order is preserved
Duplicates are allowed
Heterogeneous objects are allowed.
We can preserve insertion order and we can differentiate duplicate objects by using
index. Hence index will play very important role in Tuple also.
Tuple support both +ve and -ve index. +ve index means forward direction(from left
to right) and -ve index means backward direction(from right to left)
We can represent Tuple elements within Parenthesis and with comma seperator.
Parenethesis are optional but recommended to use.

Eg:

t=10,20,30,40
print(t)
print(type(t))

Output
(10, 20, 30, 40)
<class 'tuple'>

t=()
print(type(t)) # tuple

Note: We have to take special care about single valued tuple.compulsary the
value should ends with comma,otherwise it is not treated as tuple.
Eg:

t=(10)
print(t)
print(type(t))

Output
10
<class 'int'>

Eg:

t=(10,)
print(t)
print(type(t))

0 Output
1 (10,)

Which of the following are valid tuples?

t=()
t=10,20,30,40
t=10
t=10,
t=(10)
t=(10,)
7.t=(10,20,30,40)

Tuple creation:

1. t=()
creation of empty tuple

2. t=(10,)
t=10,
creation of single valued tuple ,parenthesis are optional,should ends with comma

3. t=10,20,30
t=(10,20,30)
creation of multi values tuples & parenthesis are optional

By using tuple() function:

list=[10,20,30]
t=tuple(list)
print(t)
4.
t=tuple(range(10,20,2))
print(t)

Accessing elements of tuple:
We can access either by index or by slice operator

By using index:

t=(10,20,30,40,50,60)
print(t[0]) #10
print(t[-1]) #60
print(t[100]) IndexError: tuple index out of range

By using slice operator:

t=(10,20,30,40,50,60)
print(t[2:5])
print(t[2:100])
print(t[::2])
5.
Output
(30, 40, 50)
(30, 40, 50, 60)
(10, 30, 50)

Tuple vs immutability:
Once we creates tuple,we cannot change its content.
Hence tuple objects are immutable.

Eg:
t=(10,20,30,40)
t[1]=70 TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment

Mathematical operators for tuple:

We can apply + and * operators for tuple

Concatenation Operator(+):

t1=(10,20,30)
t2=(40,50,60)
t3=t1+t2
print(t3) # (10,20,30,40,50,60)

Multiplication operator or repetition operator(*)

t1=(10,20,30)
t2=t1*3
print(t2) #(10,20,30,10,20,30,10,20,30)

Important functions of Tuple:

1. len()
To return number of elements present in the tuple

Eg:
t=(10,20,30,40)
print(len(t)) #4

2. count()
To return number of occurrences of given element in the tuple

Eg:
t=(10,20,10,10,20)
print(t.count(10)) #3

3. index()
returns index of first occurrence of the given element.
If the specified element is not available then we will get ValueError.

Eg:
t=(10,20,10,10,20)
print(t.index(10)) #0
print(t.index(30)) ValueError: tuple.index(x): x not in tuple

4. sorted()
To sort elements based on default natural sorting order

t=(40,10,30,20)
t1=sorted(t)
print(t1)
print(t)
5.
Output
[10, 20, 30, 40]
(40, 10, 30, 20)

We can sort according to reverse of default natural sorting order as follows

t1=sorted(t,reverse=True)
print(t1) [40, 30, 20, 10]

5. min() and max() functions:

These functions return min and max values according to default natural sorting order.

Eg:

t=(40,10,30,20)
print(min(t)) #10
print(max(t)) #40

cmp():

It compares the elements of both tuples.

If both tuples are equal then returns 0
If the first tuple is less than second tuple then it returns -1
If the first tuple is greater than second tuple then it returns +1

Eg:

t1=(10,20,30)
t2=(40,50,60)
t3=(10,20,30)
print(cmp(t1,t2)) # -1
print(cmp(t1,t3)) # 0
print(cmp(t2,t3)) # +1

Note: cmp() function is available only in Python2 but not in Python 3

Tuple Packing and Unpacking:

We can create a tuple by packing a group of variables.

Eg:

a=10
b=20
c=30
d=40
t=a,b,c,d
print(t) #(10, 20, 30, 40)

Here a,b,c,d are packed into a tuple t. This is nothing but tuple packing.

Tuple unpacking is the reverse process of tuple packing
We can unpack a tuple and assign its values to different variables

Eg:

t=(10,20,30,40)
a,b,c,d=t
print("a=",a,"b=",b,"c=",c,"d=",d)

Output
a= 10 b= 20 c= 30 d= 40

Note: At the time of tuple unpacking the number of variables and number of values
should be same. ,otherwise we will get ValueError.

Eg:
t=(10,20,30,40)
a,b,c=t #ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 3)

Tuple Comprehension:
Tuple Comprehension is not supported by Python.

t= ( x**2 for x in range(1,6))

Here we are not getting tuple object and we are getting generator object.

t= ( x**2 for x in range(1,6))

print(type(t))
for x in t:
print(x)

Differences between List and Tuple:

List and Tuple are exactly same except small difference: List objects are mutable where
as Tuple objects are immutable.

In both cases insertion order is preserved, duplicate objects are allowed,

heterogenous objects are allowed, index and slicing are supported.

List Tuple
1) List is a Group of Comma separeated 1) Tuple is a Group of Comma separeated

 Set Data Structure
If we want to represent a group of unique values as a single entity then we should go for set.
Duplicates are not allowed.
Insertion order is not preserved.But we can sort the elements.
Indexing and slicing not allowed for the set.
Heterogeneous elements are allowed.
Set objects are mutable i.e once we creates set object we can perform any changes in that object
based on our requirement.
We can represent set elements within curly braces and with comma seperation
We can apply mathematical operations like union,intersection,difference etc on set objects.

Creation of Set objects:

Eg:

s={10,20,30,40}
print(s)
print(type(s))

Output
{40, 10, 20, 30}
<class 'set'>

We can create set objects by using set() function

s=set(any sequence)

Eg 1:

l = [10,20,30,40,10,20,10]
s=set(l)
print(s) # {40, 10, 20, 30}

Eg 2:

s=set(range(5))
print(s) #{0, 1, 2, 3, 4}

Note: While creating empty set we have to take special care.

Compulsory we should use set() function.

Eg:

s={}
print(s)
print(type(s))

Output
{}
<class 'dict'>

Eg:

s=set()
print(s)
print(type(s))

Output

Important functions of set:

1. add(x):

Adds item x to the set

Eg:

s={10,20,30}
s.add(40);
print(s) #{40, 10, 20, 30}

update(x,y,z):

To add multiple items to the set.

Arguments are not individual elements and these are Iterable objects like List,range etc.
All elements present in the given Iterable objects will be added to the set.

Eg:

s={10,20,30}
l=[40,50,60,10]
s.update(l,range(5))
print(s)

 5.
Output
{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 40, 10, 50, 20, 60, 30}

What is the difference between add() and update() functions in set?

We can use add() to add individual item to the Set,where as we can use update()
function to add multiple items to Set.
add() function can take only one argument where as update() function can take any
number of arguments but all arguments should be iterable objects.

Q. Which of the following are valid for set s?

1. s.add(10)
2. s.add(10,20,30) TypeError: add() takes exactly one argument (3 given)
3. s.update(10) TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable
s.update(range(1,10,2),range(0,10,2))

copy():

Returns copy of the set.

It is cloned object.

s={10,20,30}
s1=s.copy()
print(s1)

4. pop():

It removes and returns some random element from the set.

Eg:

s={40,10,30,20}
print(s)
print(s.pop())
print(s)
5.
Output
{40, 10, 20, 30}

5. remove(x):

It removes specified element from the set.

If the specified element not present in the Set then we will get KeyError

s={40,10,30,20}
s.remove(30)
print(s) # {40, 10, 20}
s.remove(50) ==>KeyError: 50

6. discard(x):

It removes the specified element from the set.

If the specified element not present in the set then we won't get any error.

s={10,20,30}
s.discard(10)
print(s) ===>{20, 30}
s.discard(50)
print(s) ==>{20, 30}

Q. What is the difference between remove() and discard() functions in Set?

Q. Explain differences between pop(),remove() and discard() functionsin Set?

7.clear():

To remove all elements from the Set.

Mathematical operations on the Set:
1.union():

x.union(y) ==>We can use this function to return all elements present in both sets

x.union(y) or x|y

y={30,40,50,60}
print(x.union(y)) #{10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60}
print(x|y) #{10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60}

2. intersection():

x.intersection(y) or x&y

Returns common elements present in both x and y

Eg:

x={10,20,30,40}
y={30,40,50,60}
print(x.intersection(y)) #{40, 30}
print(x&y) #{40, 30}

3. difference():

x.difference(y) or x-y
returns the elements present in x but not in y

Eg:

x={10,20,30,40}
y={30,40,50,60}
print(x.difference(y)) #{10, 20}
print(x-y) #{10, 20}

print(s)
print('d' in s)
print('z' in s)

Output
{'u', 'g', 'r', 'd', 'a'}

s={x*x for x in range(5)}

print(s) #{0, 1, 4, 9, 16}

s={2**x for x in range(2,10,2)}

print(s) #{16, 256, 64, 4}

set objects won't support indexing and slicing:

Dictionary Data Structure
We can use List,Tuple and Set to represent a group of individual objects as a single entity.

If we want to represent a group of objects as key-value pairs then we should go

for Dictionary.

Eg:
rollno----name
phone number--address
ipaddress---domain name

Duplicate keys are not allowed but values can be

duplicated. Hetrogeneous objects are allowed for both key
and values. insertion order is not preserved Dictionaries are
mutable

Dictionaries are dynamic

indexing and slicing concepts are not applicable

Note: In C++ and Java Dictionaries are known as "Map" where as in Perl and Ruby it
is known as "Hash"

How to create Dictionary?

d={} or d=dict()
we are creating empty dictionary. We can add entries as follows

d[100]="durga"
d[200]="ravi"
d[300]="shiva"
print(d) #{100: 'durga', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva'}

If we know data in advance then we can create dictionary as follows

d={100:'durga' ,200:'ravi', 300:'shiva'}

d={key:value, key:value}

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
How to access data from the dictionary?
We can access data by using keys.

d={100:'durga' ,200:'ravi', 300:'shiva'}

print(d[100]) #durga
print(d[300]) #shiva

If the specified key is not available then we will get KeyError

print(d[400]) # KeyError: 400

We can prevent this by checking whether key is already available or not by

using has_key() function or by using in operator.

d.has_key(400) ==> returns 1 if key is available otherwise returns 0

But has_key() function is available only in Python 2 but not in Python 3.

Hence compulsory we have to use in operator.

if 400 in d:
print(d[400])

Q. Write a program to enter name and percentage marks in a dictionary and

display information on the screen

rec={}
n=int(input("Enter number of students: "))
i=1
while i <=n:
name=input("Enter Student Name: ")
marks=input("Enter % of Marks of Student: ")
rec[name]=marks
i=i+1
print("Name of Student","\t","% of marks")
for x in rec:
print("\t",x,"\t\t",rec[x])
12)
Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Enter number of students: 3
Enter Student Name: durga
Enter % of Marks of Student: 60%
Enter Student Name: ravi
Enter % of Marks of Student: 70%
Enter Student Name: shiva

 Enter % of Marks of Student: 80%
22) Name of Student % of marks
23) durga 60%
24) ravi 70 %
25) shiva 80%

How to update dictionaries?

d[key]=value

If the key is not available then a new entry will be added to the dictionary with
the specified key-value pair

If the key is already available then old value will be replaced with new value.

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d)
d[400]="pavan"
print(d)
d[100]="sunny"
print(d)
7.
Output
{100: 'durga', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva'}
{100: 'durga', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva', 400: 'pavan'}
{100: 'sunny', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva', 400: 'pavan'}

How to delete elements from dictionary?

del d[key]

It deletes entry associated with the specified key.

If the key is not available then we will get
KeyError

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d)
del d[100]
print(d)
del d[400]
6.
Output

 {200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva'}
KeyError: 400

d.clear()

To remove all entries from the dictionary

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d)
d.clear()
print(d)
5.
Output
{100: 'durga', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva'}
{}

del d

To delete total dictionary.Now we cannot access d

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d)
del d
print(d)
5.
Output
{100: 'durga', 200: 'ravi', 300: 'shiva'}
NameError: name 'd' is not defined

Important functions of dictionary:

1. dict():

To create a dictionary

d=dict() ===>It creates empty dictionary

d=dict({100:"durga",200:"ravi"}) ==>It creates dictionary with specified elements
d=dict([(100,"durga"),(200,"shiva"),(300,"ravi")])==>It creates dictionary with the
given list of tuple elements

2. len()

Returns the number of items in the dictionary

3. clear():

To remove all elements from the dictionary

4. get():

To get the value associated with the key

d.get(key)
If the key is available then returns the corresponding value otherwise returns
None.It wont raise any error.

d.get(key,defaultvalue)
If the key is available then returns the corresponding value otherwise returns
default value.

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d[100]) ==>durga
print(d[400]) ==>KeyError:400
print(d.get(100)) ==durga
print(d.get(400)) ==>None
print(d.get(100,"Guest")) ==durga
print(d.get(400,"Guest")) ==>Guest

3. pop():

d.pop(key)
It removes the entry associated with the specified key and returns the
corresponding value
If the specified key is not available then we will get KeyError

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}
print(d.pop(100))
print(d)
print(d.pop(400))

If the dictionary is empty then we will get

KeyError d={}
print(d.popitem()) ==>KeyError: 'popitem(): dictionary is empty'

5. keys():

It returns all keys associated eith dictionary

Eg:

d={100:"durga",200:"ravi",300:"shiva"}

 FUNCTIONS
If a group of statements is repeatedly required then it is not recommended to write
these statements everytime seperately.We have to define these statements as a single
unit and we can call that unit any number of times based on our requirement without
rewriting. This unit is nothing but function.

The main advantage of functions is code Reusability.

Note: In other languages functions are known as methods,procedures,subroutines etc

Python supports 2 types of functions

Built in Functions
User Defined Functions

1. Built in Functions:

The functions which are coming along with Python software automatically,are called built
in functions or pre defined functions

Eg:
id()
type()
input()
eval()
etc..

2. User Defined Functions:

The functions which are developed by programmer explicitly according to

business requirements ,are called user defined functions.

Syntax to create user defined functions:

def function_name(parameters) :
doc string"""
----
-----
return value

Note: While creating functions we can use 2 keywords
def (mandatory)
return (optional)

Eg 1: Write a function to print Hello

test.py:
def wish():
print("Hello Good Morning")
wish()
wish()
wish()

Parameters
Parameters are inputs to the function. If a function contains parameters,then at the time of
calling,compulsory we should provide values otherwise,otherwise we will get error.

Eg: Write a function to take name of the student as input and print wish message
by name.

def wish(name):
print("Hello",name," Good Morning")
wish("Durga")
wish("Ravi")
5.
6.
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Ravi Good Morning

Eg: Write a function to take number as input and print its square value

def squareIt(number):
print("The Square of",number,"is", number*number)
squareIt(4)
squareIt(5)
5.
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
The Square of 4 is 16
The Square of 5 is 25

Return Statement:
Function can take input values as parameters and executes business logic, and returns
output to the caller with return statement.

Q. Write a function to accept 2 numbers as input and return sum.

def add(x,y):
return x+y
result=add(10,20)
print("The sum is",result)
print("The sum is",add(100,200))

D:\Python_classes>py test.py
The sum is 30
The sum is 300

If we are not writing return statement then default return value is None

Eg:

def f1():
print("Hello")
f1()
print(f1())
5.
Output
Hello
Hello
None

Write a function to check whether the given number is even or odd?

def even_odd(num):
if num%2==0:
print(num,"is Even Number")
else:
print(num,"is Odd Number")
even_odd(10)
even_odd(15)

def fact(num):
result=1
while num>=1:
result=result*num
num=num-1
return result

print("The Factorial of",i,"is :",fact(i))

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
The Factorial of 1 is : 1
The Factorial of 2 is : 2
The Factorial of 3 is : 6
The Factorial of 4 is : 24

Returning multiple values from a function:

In other languages like C,C++ and Java, function can return atmost one value. But
in Python, a function can return any number of values.

Eg 1:

def sum_sub(a,b):
sum=a+b
sub=a-b
return sum,sub
x,y=sum_sub(100,50)
print("The Sum is :",x)
print("The Subtraction is :",y)

Output
The Sum is : 150
The Subtraction is : 50

Eg 2:

def calc(a,b):
sum=a+b
sub=a-b
mul=a*b
div=a/b
return sum,sub,mul,div
t=calc(100,50)
print("The Results are")

Types of arguments
def f1(a,b):

------
f1(10,20)

a,b are formal arguments where as 10,20 are actual arguments

There are 4 types are actual arguments are allowed in Python.

positional arguments
keyword arguments
default arguments
Variable length arguments

1. positional arguments:

These are the arguments passed to function in correct positional order.

def sub(a,b):
print(a-b)

sub(100,200)
sub(200,100)

The number of arguments and position of arguments must be matched. If we change the
order then result may be changed.

If we change the number of arguments then we will get error.

2. keyword arguments:

We can pass argument values by keyword i.e by parameter name.

Eg:

def wish(name,msg):
print("Hello",name,msg)
wish(name="Durga",msg="Good Morning")
wish(msg="Good Morning",name="Durga")

Output
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Durga Good Morning

Here the order of arguments is not important but number of arguments must be matched.

Note:

We can use both positional and keyword arguments simultaneously. But first we have to
take positional arguments and then keyword arguments,otherwise we will get
syntaxerror.

def wish(name,msg):
print("Hello",name,msg)
wish("Durga","GoodMorning") ==>valid
wish("Durga",msg="GoodMorning") ==>valid
wish(name="Durga","GoodMorning") ==>invalid SyntaxError:
positional argument follows keyword argument

3. Default Arguments:

Sometimes we can provide default values for our positional arguments.

Eg:

def wish(name="Guest"):
print("Hello",name,"Good Morning")

wish("Durga")
wish()
6)
Output
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Guest Good Morning

If we are not passing any name then only default value will be considered.

***Note:

After default arguments we should not take non default arguments

def wish(name="Guest",msg="Good Morning"): ===>Valid

def wish(name,msg="Good Morning"): ===>Valid
def wish(name="Guest",msg): ==>Invalid

SyntaxError: non-default argument follows default argument

4. Variable length arguments:

Sometimes we can pass variable number of arguments to our function,such type

of arguments are called variable length arguments.

We can declare a variable length argument with * symbol as follows

def f1(*n):

We can call this function by passing any number of arguments including zero number.
Internally all these values represented in the form of tuple.

Eg:

def sum(*n):
total=0
for n1 in n:
total=total+n1
print("The Sum=",total)

sum()
sum(10)
sum(10,20)
sum(10,20,30,40)

Output
The Sum= 0
The Sum= 10
The Sum= 30
The Sum= 100

Note:
We can mix variable length arguments with positional arguments.

def f1(*s,n1):
for s1 in s:
print(s1)
print(n1)

f1("A","B",n1=10)
Output
A
B
10

f1("A","B",10) ==>Invalid
TypeError: f1() missing 1 required keyword-only argument: 'n1'

Note: We can declare key word variable length arguments also.

For this we have to use **.

We can call this function by passing any number of keyword arguments. Internally
these keyword arguments will be stored inside a dictionary.

Eg:

def display(**kwargs):

print(k,"=",v)
display(n1=10,n2=20,n3=30)
display(rno=100,name="Durga",marks=70,subject="Java")

A group of lines with some name is called a function

A group of functions saved to a file , is called Module
A group of Modules is nothing but Library

Types of Variables
Python supports 2 types of variables.

Global Variables
Local Variables

1. Global Variables

The variables which are declared outside of function are called global variables.
These variables can be accessed in all functions of that module.

Eg:

a=10 # global variable

def f1():
print(a)
4)
def f2():
print(a)

f1()
f2()

Output
10
10

2. Local Variables:

The variables which are declared inside a function are called local variables.
Local variables are available only for the function in which we declared it.i.e from
outside of function we cannot access.

Eg:

def f1():
a=10
print(a) # valid

def f2():
print(a) #invalid

f1()
f2()

NameError: name 'a' is not defined

global keyword:
We can use global keyword for the following 2 purposes:

To declare global variable inside function

To make global variable available to the function so that we can perform required
modifications

Eg 1:

a=10
def f1():
a=777
print(a)

def f2():
print(a)

f1()
f2()

Output
777
10

a=10
def f1():
global a
a=777
print(a)

def f2():
print(a)

f1()

Output
777
777

Eg 3:

def f1():
a=10
print(a)

def f2():
print(a)

f1()
f2()

NameError: name 'a' is not defined

Eg 4:

def f2():
print(a)

f1()

Output
The Sum of 10,20 is: 30
The Sum of 100,200 is: 300

Lambda Function to find biggest of given values.

s=lambda a,b:a if a>b else b

print("The Biggest of 10,20 is:",s(10,20))
 print("The Biggest of 100,200 is:",s(100,200))
4)
Output
The Biggest of 10,20 is: 20
The Biggest of 100,200 is: 200

Note:
Lambda Function internally returns expression value and we are not required to
write return statement explicitly.

Note: Sometimes we can pass function as argument to another function. In such

cases lambda functions are best choice.

We can use lambda functions very commonly with filter(),map() and reduce()
functions,b'z these functions expect function as argument.

filter() function:
We can use filter() function to filter values from the given sequence based on
some condition.

filter(function,sequence)

where function argument is responsible to perform conditional

check sequence can be list or tuple or string.

Q. Program to filter only even numbers from the list by using

filter() function?

without lambda Function:

def isEven(x):
if x%2==0:
return True
else:

 return False
l=[0,5,10,15,20,25,30]
l1=list(filter(isEven,l))
print(l1) #[0,10,20,30]

with lambda Function:

l=[0,5,10,15,20,25,30]
l1=list(filter(lambda x:x%2==0,l))
print(l1) #[0,10,20,30]
l2=list(filter(lambda x:x%2!=0,l))
print(l2) #[5,15,25]

map() function:
For every element present in the given sequence,apply some functionality and
generate new element with the required modification. For this requirement we should
go for map() function.

Eg: For every element present in the list perform double and generate new list of doubles.

Syntax:

map(function,sequence)

The function can be applied on each element of sequence and generates new sequence.

Eg: Without lambda

l=[1,2,3,4,5]
def doubleIt(x):
return 2*x
l1=list(map(doubleIt,l))
print(l1) #[2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

with lambda

l=[1,2,3,4,5]
l1=list(map(lambda x:2*x,l))
print(l1) #[2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

Eg 2: To find square of given numbers

l=[1,2,3,4,5]
l1=list(map(lambda x:x*x,l))
print(l1) #[1, 4, 9, 16, 25]

We can apply map() function on multiple lists also.But make sure all list should have
same length.

Syntax: map(lambda x,y:x*y,l1,l2))

x is from l1 and y is from l2
Eg:

l1=[1,2,3,4]
l2=[2,3,4,5]
l3=list(map(lambda x,y:x*y,l1,l2))
print(l3) #[2, 6, 12, 20]

reduce() function:
reduce() function reduces sequence of elements into a single element by applying
the specified function.

reduce(function,sequence)

reduce() function present in functools module and hence we should write

import statement.

Eg:

from functools import *

l=[10,20,30,40,50]
result=reduce(lambda x,y:x+y,l)
print(result) # 150

Eg:

result=reduce(lambda x,y:x*y,l)
print(result) #12000000

Eg:

from functools import *

result=reduce(lambda x,y:x+y,range(1,101))
print(result) #5050

Note:
In Python every thing is treated as object.
Even functions also internally treated as objects only.

Eg:

def f1():
print("Hello")
print(f1)
print(id(f1))

Output
<function f1 at 0x00419618>
4298264

Function Aliasing:
For the existing function we can give another name, which is nothing but function aliasing.

Eg:

def wish(name):
print("Good Morning:",name)

greeting=wish
print(id(wish))
print(id(greeting))

greeting('Durga')
wish('Durga')

Output
4429336
4429336
Good Morning: Durga
Good Morning: Durga

Note: In the above example only one function is available but we can call that function by
using either wish name or greeting name.

If we delete one name still we can access that function by using alias name

Eg:

def wish(name):
print("Good Morning:",name)



 3)
greeting=wish

greeting('Durga')
wish('Durga')
8)
del wish
#wish('Durga') ==>NameError: name 'wish' is not defined
greeting('Pavan')

Output
Good Morning: Durga
Good Morning: Durga
Good Morning: Pavan

Nested Functions:
We can declare a function inside another function, such type of functions are called Nested
functions.

Eg:

def outer():
print("outer function started")
def inner():
print("inner function execution")
print("outer function calling inner function")
inner()
outer()
8) #inner() ==>NameError: name 'inner' is not defined

Output
outer function started
outer function calling inner function
inner function execution

In the above example inner() function is local to outer() function and hence it is not possible to call
directly from outside of outer() function.

Note: A function can return another function.

Eg:

def outer():
print("outer function started")
def inner():
print("inner function execution")

 print("outer function returning inner function")
return inner
f1=outer()
f1()
f1()
f1()

Output
outer function started
outer function returning inner function
inner function execution
inner function execution
inner function execution

Q. What is the differenece between the following lines?

f1 = outer
f1 = outer()

In the first case for the outer() function we are providing another name f1(function aliasing).
But in the second case we calling outer() function,which returns inner function.For that inner
function() we are providing another name f1

Note: We can pass function as argument to another function

Eg: filter(function,sequence)
map(function,sequence)
reduce(function,sequence)

Function Decorators:
Decorator is a function which can take a function as argument and extend its
functionality and returns modified function with extended functionality.

Input Function new(add some functionality)

wish() Decorator
inner()

Input Function Decorator Output Function with

Function extended Functionality

The main objective of decorator functions is we can extend the functionality of existing
functions without modifies that function.

def wish(name):
print("Hello",name,"Good Morning")

This function can always print same output for any name

Hello Durga Good Morning

Hello Ravi Good Morning
Hello Sunny Good Morning

But we want to modify this function to provide different message if name is Sunny.
We can do this without touching wish() function by using decorator.

Eg:

def decor(func):
def inner(name):
if name=="Sunny":
print("Hello Sunny Bad Morning")
else:
func(name)
return inner
8)
@decor
def wish(name):
print("Hello",name,"Good Morning")

wish("Durga")
wish("Ravi")
wish("Sunny")

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
 Output
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Ravi Good Morning
Hello Sunny Bad Morning

In the above program whenever we call wish() function automatically decor function will
be executed.

How to call same function with decorator and without decorator:

We should not use @decor

def decor(func):
def inner(name):
if name=="Sunny":
print("Hello Sunny Bad Morning")
else:
func(name)
return inner
8)
9)
def wish(name):
print("Hello",name,"Good Morning")

decorfunction=decor(wish)

wish("Durga") #decorator wont be executed

wish("Sunny") #decorator wont be executed

decorfunction("Durga")#decorator will be executed

decorfunction("Sunny")#decorator will be executed

Output
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Sunny Good Morning
Hello Durga Good Morning
Hello Sunny Bad Morning

Eg 2:

def smart_division(func):
def inner(a,b):
print("We are dividing",a,"with",b)
if b==0:
print("OOPS...cannot divide")
return
else:
return func(a,b)

 return inner

@smart_division
def division(a,b):
return a/b

print(division(20,2))
print(division(20,0))

without decorator we will get Error.In this case output is:

10.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 16, in <module>
print(division(20,0))
File "test.py", line 13, in division
return a/b
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero

with decorator we won't get any error. In this case output is:

We are dividing 20 with 2

10.0
We are dividing 20 with 0
OOPS...cannot divide
None

Decorator Chaining
We can define multiple decorators for the same function and all these decorators will
form Decorator Chaining.

Eg:
@decor1
@decor
def num():

For num() function we are applying 2 decorator functions. First inner decorator will
work and then outer decorator.

Eg:

def decor1(func):
def inner():
x=func()
return x*x

Generators
Generator is a function which is responsible to generate a sequence of values.
We can write generator functions just like ordinary functions, but it uses yield keyword
to return values.

Generator A Sequence of Values

Function

yield

Eg 1:

def mygen():
yield 'A'
yield 'B'
yield 'C'

g=mygen()
print(type(g))

print(next(g))
print(next(g))
print(next(g))
print(next(g))

Output
<class 'generator'>
A
B
C
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 12, in <module>
print(next(g))
StopIteration

n=n+1
6)
values=firstn(5)
for x in values:
print(x)
10)
Output

We can convert generator into list as follows:

values=firstn(10)
l1=list(values)
print(l1) #[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Eg 4: To generate Fibonacci Numbers...

The next is the sum of previous 2 numbers

Eg: 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,...

def fib():
a,b=0,1
while True:
yield a
a,b=b,a+b
for f in fib():

Advantages of Generator Functions:

when compared with class level iterators, generators are very easy to use
Improves memory utilization and performance.
Generators are best suitable for reading data from large number of large files
Generators work great for web scraping and crawling.

Generators vs Normal Collections wrt performance:

import random
import time
3)
names = ['Sunny','Bunny','Chinny','Vinny']
subjects = ['Python','Java','Blockchain']
6)
def people_list(num_people):
results = []
for i in range(num_people):
person = {
'id':i,
'name': random.choice(names),
'subject':random.choice(subjects)
}
results.append(person)
return results

t1 = time.clock()
people = people_generator(10000000)
t2 = time.clock()

print('Took {}'.format(t2-t1))

Note: In the above program observe the differnce wrt execution time by using list and generators

Generators vs Normal Collections wrt Memory Utilization:

Normal Collection:
l=[x*x for x in range(10000000000000000)]
print(l[0])

We will get MemoryError in this case because all these values are required to store in the memory.

Generators:
g=(x*x for x in range(10000000000000000))
print(next(g))

Output: 0
We won't get any MemoryError because the values won't be stored at the beginning

Modules
A group of functions, variables and classes saved to a file, which is nothing but module.

Every Python file (.py) acts as a module.

Eg: durgamath.py

x=888

def add(a,b):
print("The Sum:",a+b)

def product(a,b):
print("The Product:",a*b)

durgamath module contains one variable and 2 functions.

If we want to use members of module in our program then we should import that

module. import modulename

We can access members by using module name.

modulename.variable
modulename.function()

test.py:

import durgamath
print(durgamath.x)
durgamath.add(10,20)
durgamath.product(10,20)

Output
888
The Sum: 30
The Product: 200

Note:
whenever we are using a module in our program, for that module compiled file will be
generated and stored in the hard disk permanently.

Renaming a module at the time of import (module aliasing):

Eg:
import durgamath as m

here durgamath is original module name and m is alias name.

We can access members by using alias name m

test.py:

import durgamath as m
print(m.x)
m.add(10,20)
m.product(10,20)

from ... import:

We can import particular members of module by using from ... import .

The main advantage of this is we can access members directly without using
module name.

Eg:
from durgamath import x,add
print(x)
add(10,20)
product(10,20)==> NameError: name 'product' is not defined

We can import all members of a module as

follows from durgamath import *

test.py:

from durgamath import *

print(x)
add(10,20)
product(10,20)

Various possibilties of import:
import modulename
import module1,module2,module3
import module1 as m
import module1 as m1,module2 as m2,module3
from module import member
from module import
member1,member2,memebr3 from module
import memeber1 as x from module import *

member aliasing:
from durgamath import x as y,add as sum
print(y)
sum(10,20)

Once we defined as alias name,we should use alias name only and we should not use
original name

Eg:
from durgamath import x as y

Reloading a Module:
By default module will be loaded only once eventhough we are importing
multiple multiple times.

Demo Program for module reloading:

import time
from imp import reload
import module1
time.sleep(30)
reload(module1)
time.sleep(30)
reload(module1)
print("This is test file")

Note: In the above program, everytime updated version of module1 will be available
to our program

module1.py:

print("This is from module1")

test.py

import module1
import module1
import module1
import module1
print("This is test module")

Output
This is from module1
This is test module

In the above program test module will be loaded only once eventhough we are
importing multiple times.

The problem in this approach is after loading a module if it is updated outside

then updated version of module1 is not available to our program.

We can solve this problem by reloading module explicitly based on our requirement.
We can reload by using reload() function of imp module.

import imp
imp.reload(module1)

test.py:

import module1
import module1
from imp import reload
reload(module1)
reload(module1)
reload(module1)
print("This is test module")

In the above program module1 will be loaded 4 times in that 1 time by default and 3
times explicitly. In this case output is

This is from module1

This is from module1
This is from module1
This is from module1
This is test module

The main advantage of explicit module reloading is we can ensure that updated version
is always available to our program.

Finding members of module by using dir() function:

Python provides inbuilt function dir() to list out all members of current module or
a specified module.

dir() ===>To list out all members of current module

dir(moduleName)==>To list out all members of specified module

Eg 1: test.py

x=10
y=20
def f1():
print("Hello")
5) print(dir()) # To print all members of current module
6)
Output
['__annotations__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__nam
e__', '__package__', '__spec__', 'f1', 'x', 'y']

Eg 2: To display members of particular module:

durgamath.py:

x=888

def add(a,b):
print("The Sum:",a+b)

def product(a,b):
print("The Product:",a*b)

test.py:

import durgamath
print(dir(durgamath))

Output
['__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__',
'__package__', '__spec__', 'add', 'product', 'x']

Note: For every module at the time of execution Python interpreter will add some
special properties automatically for internal use.

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
Eg: __builtins__,__cached__,'__doc__,__file__, __loader__,
__name__,__package__, __spec__

Based on our requirement we can access these properties also in our program.

Eg: test.py:

print(__builtins__ )
print(__cached__ )
print(__doc__)
print(__file__)
print(__loader__)
print(__name__)
print(__package__)
print(__spec__)
9)
Output
<module 'builtins' (built-in)>
None
None

test.py

<_frozen_importlib_external.SourceFileLoader object at 0x00572170>

__main__
None
None

The Special variable __name__:

For every Python program , a special variable __name__ will be added internally.
This variable stores information regarding whether the program is executed as
an individual program or as a module.

If the program executed as an individual program then the value of this variable
is __main__
If the program executed as a module from some other program then the value of
this variable is the name of module where it is defined.

Hence by using this __name__ variable we can identify whether the program
executed directly or as a module.

 Packages
It is an encapsulation mechanism to group related modules into a single unit.
package is nothing but folder or directory which represents collection of Python modules.

Any folder or directory contains __init__.py file,is considered as a Python package.This

file can be empty.

A package can contains sub packages also.

__init__.py

 File Handling
As the part of programming requirement, we have to store our data permanently
for future purpose. For this requirement we should go for files.

Files are very common permanent storage areas to store our data.

Types of Files:
There are 2 types of files

1. Text Files:

Usually we can use text files to store character data

eg: abc.txt

2. Binary Files:

Usually we can use binary files to store binary data like images,video files, audio files etc...

Opening a File:
Before performing any operation (like read or write) on the file,first we have to open that
file.For this we should use Python's inbuilt function open()

But at the time of open, we have to specify mode,which represents the purpose of
opening file.

f = open(filename, mode)

The allowed modes in Python are


r open an existing file for read operation. The file pointer is positioned at the
beginning of the file.If the specified file does not exist then we will get
FileNotFoundError.This is default mode.


DURGASOFT, # 202, 2nd Floor, HUDA Maitrivanam, Ameerpet, Hyderabad - 500038, 040 –
64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
 
w open an existing file for write operation. If the file already contains some data then it
will be overridden. If the specified file is not already avaialble then this mode will create
that file.


a open an existing file for append operation. It won't override existing data.If the specified file
is not already avaialble then this mode will create a new file.


r+ To read and write data into the file. The previous data in the file will not be deleted.The
file pointer is placed at the beginning of the file.


w+ To write and read data. It will override existing data.

a+ To append and read data from the file.It wont override existing data.

x To open a file in exclusive creation mode for write operation. If the file already exists then
we will get FileExistsError.

Note: All the above modes are applicable for text files. If the above modes suffixed
with 'b' then these represents for binary files.

Eg: rb,wb,ab,r+b,w+b,a+b,xb

f = open("abc.txt","w")

We are opening abc.txt file for writing data.

Closing a File:
After completing our operations on the file,it is highly recommended to close the file.
For this we have to use close() function.

f.close()

Various properties of File Object:

Once we opend a file and we got file object,we can get various details related to that file
by using its properties.

name Name of opened file

mode Mode in which the file is opened

closed Returns boolean value indicates that file is closed or not

readable() Retruns boolean value indicates that whether file is readable or not

writable() Returns boolean value indicates that whether file is writable or not.

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
File Name: abc.txt
File Mode: w
Is File Readable: False
Is File Writable: True
Is File Closed : False
Is File Closed : True

Writing data to text files:

We can write character data to the text files by using the following 2 methods.

write(str)
writelines(list of lines)

Eg:

f=open("abcd.txt",'w')
f.write("Durga\n")
f.write("Software\n")
f.write("Solutions\n")
print("Data written to the file successfully")
f.close()

abcd.txt:
Durga
Software
Solutions

Note: In the above program, data present in the file will be overridden everytime if we
run the program. Instead of overriding if we want append operation then we should
open the file as follows.

f = open("abcd.txt","a")

f.writelines(list)
print("List of lines written to the file successfully")
f.close()

abcd.txt:
sunny
bunny
vinny
chinny

Note: while writing data by using write() methods, compulsory we have to provide line
seperator(\n),otherwise total data should be written to a single line.

Reading Character Data from text files:

We can read character data from text file by using the following read methods.

read() To read total data from the file

read(n) To read 'n' characters from the file

readline() To read only one line

readlines() To read all lines into a list
Eg 1: To read total data from the file

f=open("abc.txt",'r')
data=f.read()
print(data)
f.close()
5)
Output
sunny
bunny
chinny
vinny

Eg 2: To read only first 10 characters:

The with statement:

The with statement can be used while opening a file.We can use this to group file
operation statements within a block.
The advantage of with statement is it will take care closing of file,after completing all
operations automatically even in the case of exceptions also, and we are not required
to close explicitly.
Eg:

with open("abc.txt","w") as f:
f.write("Durga\n")
f.write("Software\n")
f.write("Solutions\n")
print("Is File Closed: ",f.closed)
print("Is File Closed: ",f.closed)

Output
Is File Closed: False
Is File Closed: True

The seek() and tell() methods:

tell():

==>We can use tell() method to return current position of the cursor(file pointer)
from beginning of the file. [ can you plese telll current cursor position]
The position(index) of first character in files is zero just like string index.

Eg:

f=open("abc.txt","r")
print(f.tell())
print(f.read(2))
print(f.tell())
print(f.read(3))
print(f.tell())

abc.txt:

seek():

We can use seek() method to move cursor(file pointer) to specified

location. [Can you please seek the cursor to a particular location]

f.seek(offset, fromwhere)

offset represents the number of positions

The allowed values for second attribute(from where) are

0---->From beginning of file(default value)
1---->From current position
2--->From end of the file

Note: Python 2 supports all 3 values but Python 3 supports only zero.

Eg:

data="All Students are STUPIDS"

f=open("abc.txt","w")
f.write(data)
with open("abc.txt","r+") as f:
text=f.read()
print(text)
print("The Current Cursor Position: ",f.tell())
f.seek(17)
print("The Current Cursor Position: ",f.tell())
f.write("GEMS!!!")
f.seek(0)
text=f.read()

 All Students are GEMS!!!

How to check a particular file exists or not?

We can use os library to get information about files in our computer.

os module has path sub module,which contains isFile() function to check whether a
particular file exists or not?
os.path.isfile(fname)

Q. Write a program to check whether the given file exists or not. If it

is available then print its content?

import os,sys
fname=input("Enter File Name: ")
if os.path.isfile(fname):
print("File exists:",fname)
f=open(fname,"r")
else:
print("File does not exist:",fname)
sys.exit(0)
print("The content of file is:")
data=f.read()
print(data)
12)
Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
Enter File Name: durga.txt
File does not exist: durga.txt

D:\Python_classes>py test.py

File exists: abc.txt
The content of file is:
All Students are GEMS!!!
All Students are GEMS!!!
All Students are GEMS!!!
All Students are GEMS!!!
All Students are GEMS!!!
All Students are GEMS!!!

Note:
sys.exit(0) ===>To exit system without executing rest of the program.
argument represents status code . 0 means normal termination and it is the default value.

Handling Binary Data:
It is very common requirement to read or write binary data like images,video
files,audio files etc.

Q. Program to read image file and write to a new image file?

f1=open("rossum.jpg","rb")
f2=open("newpic.jpg","wb")
bytes=f1.read()
f2.write(bytes)
print("New Image is available with the name: newpic.jpg")

Handling csv files:

CSV==>Comma seperated values

As the part of programming,it is very common requirement to write and read data wrt
csv files. Python provides csv module to handle csv files.

Writing data to csv file:

import csv
with open("emp.csv","w",newline='') as f:
w=csv.writer(f) # returns csv writer object
w.writerow(["ENO","ENAME","ESAL","EADDR"])
n=int(input("Enter Number of Employees:"))
for i in range(n):
eno=input("Enter Employee No:")
ename=input("Enter Employee Name:")
esal=input("Enter Employee Salary:")
eaddr=input("Enter Employee Address:")
w.writerow([eno,ename,esal,eaddr])
print("Total Employees data written to csv file successfully")

Note: Observe the difference with newline attribute and without

with open("emp.csv","w",newline='') as f:
with open("emp.csv","w") as f:

Note: If we are not using newline attribute then in the csv file blank lines will be
included between data. To prevent these blank lines, newline attribute is required in
Python-3,but in Python-2 just we can specify mode as 'wb' and we are not required to use
newline attribute.

Reading Data from csv file:

import csv
f=open("emp.csv",'r')
r=csv.reader(f) #returns csv reader object
data=list(r)
#print(data)
for line in data:
for word in line:
print(word,"\t",end='')
print()
10)
Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
ENO ENAME ESAL EADDR
100 Durga 1000 Hyd
200 Sachin 2000 Mumbai
300 Dhoni 3000 Ranchi

Zipping and Unzipping Files:

It is very common requirement to zip and unzip files.

The main advantages are:

To improve memory utilization

We can reduce transport time
We can improve performance.

To perform zip and unzip operations, Python contains one in-bulit module zip file.
This module contains a class : ZipFile

To create Zip file:

We have to create ZipFile class object with name of the zip file,mode and
constant ZIP_DEFLATED. This constant represents we are creating zip file.

f = ZipFile("files.zip","w","ZIP_DEFLATED")

Once we create ZipFile object,we can add files by using write() method.

f.write(filename)

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
Eg:

from zipfile import *

f=ZipFile("files.zip",'w',ZIP_DEFLATED)
f.write("file1.txt")
f.write("file2.txt")
f.write("file3.txt")
f.close()
print("files.zip file created successfully")

To perform unzip operation:

We have to create ZipFile object as follows

f = ZipFile("files.zip","r",ZIP_STORED)

ZIP_STORED represents unzip operation. This is default value and hence we are
not required to specify.
Once we created ZipFile object for unzip operation,we can get all file names present
in that zip file by using namelist() method.

names = f.namelist()

Eg:

from zipfile import *

f=ZipFile("files.zip",'r',ZIP_STORED)
names=f.namelist()
for name in names:
print( "File Name: ",name)
print("The Content of this file is:")
f1=open(name,'r')
print(f1.read())
print()

Working with Directories:

It is very common requirement to perform operations for directories like

To know current working directory

To create a new directory
To remove an existing directory
To rename a directory
To list contents of the directory
etc...

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
To perform these operations,Python provides inbuilt module os,which contains
several functions to perform directory related operations.

Q1. To Know Current Working Directory:

import os
cwd=os.getcwd()
print("Current Working Directory:",cwd)

Q2. To create a sub directory in the current working directory:

import os
os.mkdir("mysub")
print("mysub directory created in cwd")

Q3. To create a sub directory in mysub directory:

cwd
|-mysub
|-mysub2

import os
os.mkdir("mysub/mysub2")
print("mysub2 created inside mysub")

Note: Assume mysub already present in cwd.

Q4. To create multiple directories like sub1 in that sub2 in that sub3:

import os
os.makedirs("sub1/sub2/sub3")
print("sub1 and in that sub2 and in that sub3 directories created")

Q5. To remove a directory:

import os
os.rmdir("mysub/mysub2")
print("mysub2 directory deleted")

Q6. To remove multiple directories in the path:

import os
os.removedirs("sub1/sub2/sub3")
print("All 3 directories sub1,sub2 and sub3 removed")

Q7. To rename a directory:

import os
os.rename("mysub","newdir")
print("mysub directory renamed to newdir")

Q8. To know contents of directory:

os module provides listdir() to list out the contents of the specified directory. It
won't display the contents of sub directory.

Eg:

import os
print(os.listdir("."))

Output
D:\Python_classes>py test.py
['abc.py', 'abc.txt', 'abcd.txt', 'com', 'demo.py', 'durgamath.py', 'emp.csv', '
file1.txt', 'file2.txt', 'file3.txt', 'files.zip', 'log.txt', 'module1.py', 'myl
og.txt', 'newdir', 'newpic.jpg', 'pack1', 'rossum.jpg', 'test.py', '__pycache__'
]

The above program display contents of current working directory but not contents of
sub directories.

If we want the contents of a directory including sub directories then we should go

for walk() function.

Q9. To know contents of directory including sub directories:

We have to use walk() function

[Can you please walk in the directory so that we can aware all contents of that directory]

os.walk(path,topdown=True,onerror=None,followlinks=False)

It returns an Iterator object whose contents can be displayed by using for loop

path-->Directory path. cwd means .

topdown=True --->Travel from top to bottom
onerror=None --->on error detected which function has to execute.
followlinks=True -->To visit directories pointed by symbolic links

040 – 64 51 27 86, 80 96 96 96 96, 92 46 21 21 43 | www.durgasoft.com
Eg: To display all contents of Current working directory including sub directories:

import os
for dirpath,dirnames,filenames in os.walk('.'):
print("Current Directory Path:",dirpath)
print("Directories:",dirnames)
print("Files:",filenames)
print()
7)
8)
Output
Current Directory Path: .
Directories: ['com', 'newdir', 'pack1', '__pycache__']
Files: ['abc.txt', 'abcd.txt', 'demo.py', 'durgamath.py', 'emp.csv', 'file1.txt'
, 'file2.txt', 'file3.txt', 'files.zip', 'log.txt', 'module1.py', 'mylog.txt', '
newpic.jpg', 'rossum.jpg', 'test.py']
15)
Current Directory Path: .\com
Directories: ['durgasoft', '__pycache__']
Files: ['module1.py', '__init__.py']
19)
...

Note: To display contents of particular directory,we have to provide that directory

name as argument to walk() function.

os.walk("directoryname")

Q. What is the difference between listdir() and walk() functions?

In the case of listdir(), we will get contents of specified directory but not sub directory
contents. But in the case of walk() function we will get contents of specified directory
and its sub directories also.

Running Other programs from Python program:

os module contains system() function to run programs and commands.

It is exactly same as system() function in C language.

os.system("commad string")
The argument is any command which is executing from DOS.

Eg:
import os
os.system("dir *.py")
os.system("py abc.py")

How to get information about a File:

We can get statistics of a file like size, last accessed time,last modified time etc by using
stat() function of os module.

stats = os.stat("abc.txt")

The statistics of a file includes the following parameters:

st_mode==>Protection Bits
st_ino==>Inode number
st_dev===>device
st_nlink===>no of hard links
st_uid===>userid of owner
st_gid==>group id of owner
st_size===>size of file in bytes
st_atime==>Time of most recent access
st_mtime==>Time of Most recent modification
st_ctime==> Time of Most recent meta data change

Note:

st_atime, st_mtime and st_ctime returns the time as number of milli seconds since Jan 1st
1970 ,12:00AM. By using datetime module fromtimestamp() function,we can get exact
date and time.

Q. To print all statistics of file abc.txt:

import os
stats=os.stat("abc.txt")
print(stats)
4)
Output
os.stat_result(st_mode=33206, st_ino=844424930132788, st_dev=2657980798, st_nlin
k=1, st_uid=0, st_gid=0, st_size=22410, st_atime=1505451446, st_mtime=1505538999
, st_ctime=1505451446)

To print specified properties:

import os
from datetime import *
stats=os.stat("abc.txt")
print("File Size in Bytes:",stats.st_size)
print("File Last Accessed Time:",datetime.fromtimestamp(stats.st_atime))
print("File Last Modified Time:",datetime.fromtimestamp(stats.st_mtime))

 Output
File Size in Bytes: 22410
File Last Accessed Time: 2017-09-15 10:27:26.599490
File Last Modified Time: 2017-09-16 10:46:39.245394

Pickling and Unpickling of Objects:

Sometimes we have to write total state of object to the file and we have to read
total object from the file.

The process of writing state of object to the file is called pickling and the process
of reading state of an object from the file is called unpickling.

We can implement pickling and unpickling by using pickle module of Python.

pickle module contains dump() function to perform pickling.

pickle.dump(object,file)

pickle module contains load() function to perform unpickling

obj=pickle.load(file)

pickling
pickle.dump
eno: 100 (e1, f)
ename: Durga
esal: 10000
eaddr: HYD
e1 eno: 100
ename: Durga
esal: 10000
eaddr: HYD

eno: 100 abc.txt

ename: Durga pickle load (f)
esal: 10000

Method overriding:
What ever members available in the parent class are bydefault available to the child class
through inheritance. If the child class not satisfied with parent class implementation then child
class is allowed to redefine that method in the child class based on its requirement. This concept
is called overriding.
Overriding concept applicable for both methods and constructors.

Demo Program for Method overriding:

class P:
def property(self):
print('Gold+Land+Cash+Power')
def marry(self):
print('Appalamma')
class C(P):
def marry(self):
print('Katrina Kaif')
9)
c=C()
c.property()
c.marry()

Output:
Gold+Land+Cash+Power
Katrina Kaif

From Overriding method of child class,we can call parent class method also by using
super() method.

class P:
def property(self):
print('Gold+Land+Cash+Power')
def marry(self):
print('Appalamma')
class C(P):
def marry(self):
super().marry()
print('Katrina Kaif')
10)
c=C()
c.property()
c.marry()

Output:
Gold+Land+Cash+Power
Appalamma
Katrina Kaif
