Python - : Dr. M. Ramakrishnan

Python can be used for AI, data analysis, and web development. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems. Python code is written in plain text files and uses indentation to define code blocks rather than curly braces. Common data types include integers, floats, and strings. Python supports operators like +, -, *, /, % for arithmetic and ==, !=, <, >, <=, >= for comparisons. Control structures include if/else statements and for/while loops.

Introduction
Dr. M. Ramakrishnan
• Created by Guido Van Rossum at 1991
• Popular Scripting Language
• AI & Data Analysis
• Web Development
• Python works on different platforms
• Windows
Intro • Linux
• Mac
• Simple syntax
• Programmer can achieve the objective with
fewer lines of code
• Interpreter based language
• Python 2
• More existing software package uses this.
• No update will be available.
• Nearing its EOL

Versions • Python 3
• Released on December 2008
• Backward incompatible
• https://www.python.org
/downloads/
• To install packages –
Python pip install
Packagename
Installation
• https://www.anaconda.c
om/products/individual
• Conda install
packagename
Python - • Indentation – Spaces at the beginning of
the code line
features • Python variables are not declared
• Variable is declared when you assign
value for it.
• x = 5 # x is declared as integer
• Y = 5.23 #here Y is declared as float
• Casting
• X = str(3) # X value is ‘3’
• Case Sensitive
• x=5
• X = “John
• Variable name can start with a alphabet
letter and underscore
• A variable name can not start with a number
• A Variable name can contain alpha numeric
characters and underscore
Naming a • Variable names are case sensitive
variable • 2myvar = "John"
my-var = "John"
my var = "John“
• Can assign multiple values to variables in one
line
• X, y = 5, 10
• Print(“x value is” + x)
•
+ for •
x = “IoT is”
Y = “Internet of Things”
Concatenation • Z=x+Y
• Print(Z)
+ Addition
- Subtraction
* Multiplication
Python / Division
Operators % Modulus Operator
Ex: x = 5%2 - Here 5 will be divided by 2
and the reminder (1) will be assigned to x.
• Equals: a == b
• Not Equals: a != b
Relational • Less than: a < b

Operators • Less than or equal to: a <= b


• Greater than: a > b
• Greater than or equal to: a >= b
• Syntax
if condition:
if block statement 1
if block statement 2
….
….
If Statement if block statement N

When the condition is true, then the if


block statements 1 to N are getting
executed. Here the block is defined by the
indentation. Typically, in C, the block is
written inside the curly brace open and
close
•x = 5 •Here there are three blocks
If Statement •y = 10 and each block has one
(Example) •if x < y:
statement.

• print(“x is less than y”) •If x < y then “x less than y”


•elif x > y: will be printed.
•Else if x>y then “x greater
• print(“ x is greater than y”)
than y” will be printed
•else •Else “x is equal to y” will be
• print (“x is equal to y”) printed.
• Typical Syntax
variable Initialization
while condition with variable:
Loop statement 1
Loop statement 2
….

While loop ….
Loop statement N
Variable manipulation

As long as the condition is true, the while loop gets


executed. When the condition becomes false the
control comes out of while loop.
While loop
example
• Used to iterate over a
sequence
• Example:
For loop
For loop
Here, genre is a list with 3 elements.
• We can iterate through the list
with index in the for loop Len(genre) will give 3
using range() function range(len(genre)) will generate the numbers 0, 1,2
• range(5) will generate 5 So in the for loop, i gets the value of 0, 1 and 2 for each
numbers from 0 to 4. iteration.
• Example: In the first iteration genre[0] will be printed and in the next
iteration genre[1] will be printed. And then genre[2] will be
printed.
