Python Practice Exercises for Beginners
1. Print Hello World
print("Hello, World!")
The simplest Python program prints text to the screen. This helps verify your setup.
2. Variables and Data Types
x = 10
name = "Alice"
pi = 3.14
print(x, name, pi)
Variables store data. Python automatically detects types like int, str, and float.
3. If-Else Logic
num = 7
if num % 2 == 0:
print("Even")
else:
print("Odd")
Conditional statements let you branch logic. Here we check if a number is even or odd.
4. Loops - For Loop
for i in range(5):
print("Iteration", i)
Loops help repeat tasks. `range(5)` generates numbers from 0 to 4.
5. While Loop
count = 1
while count <= 5:
print("Count:", count)
count += 1
While loops run until a condition is false. Always ensure the loop ends to avoid infinite loops.
6. Functions
def greet(name):
return "Hello " + name
print(greet("Alice"))
Functions group reusable code. They can take inputs and return results.
7. Lists
fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
for fruit in fruits:
print(fruit)
Lists store multiple values. You can loop through them easily.
8. Dictionaries
student = {"name": "Alice", "age": 21}
print(student["name"], student["age"])
Dictionaries store key-value pairs. Useful for structured data.
9. File Handling
with open("example.txt", "w") as f:
f.write("Hello File!")
File handling lets you read/write data. Always close files, or use `with` which does it automatically.
10. Simple Class
class Dog:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def bark(self):
print(self.name, "says Woof!")
d = Dog("Buddy")
d.bark()
Classes define objects with attributes and methods. This is the basics of Object-Oriented
Programming.
