INTRODUCTION TO PYTHON
Python is a widely used general-purpose interpreted, object-oriented, high-level
programming language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data
structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very
attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or
glue language to connect existing components together.
Python's simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces
the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which
encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the
extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for
all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.
Python was created by Guido van Rossum in 1991 and further developed by the
Python Software Foundation. It was designed with an emphasis on code
readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express their concepts in fewer
lines of code.
Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate
systems more efficiently.
It is used for:
• web development (server-side),
• software development,
• mathematics, • system scripting.

HISTORY OF PYTHON
In the late 1980s, history was about to be written. It was that time when working on
Python started. Soon after that, Guido Van Rossum began doing its
applicationbased work in December of 1989 at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica
(CWI) which is situated in the Netherlands. It was started as a hobby project
because he was looking for an interesting project to keep him occupied during
Christmas.

The programming language in which Python is said to have succeeded is ABC

Programming Language, which had interfacing with the Amoeba Operating
System and had the feature of exception handling. He had already helped create
ABC earlier in his career and had seen some issues with ABC but liked most of the
features. After that what he did was very clever. He had taken the syntax of ABC,
and some of its good features. It came with a lot of complaints too, so he fixed
those issues completely and created a good scripting language that had removed all
the flaws.

The inspiration for the name came from the BBC’s TV Show – ‘Monty Python’s
Flying Circus’, as he was a big fan of the TV show and also he wanted a short,
unique and slightly mysterious name for his invention and hence he named it
Python! He was the “Benevolent dictator for life” (BDFL) until he stepped down
from the position as the leader on 12th July 2018. For quite some time he used to
work for Google, but currently, he is working at Dropbox.

FEATURES OF PYTHON
• Python is an interpreted, interactive, directly executed language with a
precompiled code.
• It is a loosely typed object-oriented programming language with few
keywords, simple English-like structure and easy to learn.
• It is a free, open-source and portable language having a large repository of
libraries.
• It takes less time to develop as python programs are typically 3 to 5 times
shorter than the equivalent programming languages. This is because of its
builtin, high level data types and its dynamic typing.
• It is extensible/ extendable and highly efficient as there is no wastage of time
in declaring the types of variable or arguments.
• It supports GUI (graphical user interface) and garbage collection.
• It is easily compatible with other languages like C, C++, core java, etc.
• Python is used for both scientific and non-scientific programming.

ADVANTAGES OF PYTHON

1. Platform-independent: It is platform independent and can run across

different platforms like Windows, linux/unix, Mac OS and other operating
systems. Thus, we can say that python is a portable language.
2. Readability: Python programs use clear, simple, concise and english-like
instructions that are easy to read and understand even by non-programmers
or people with no substantial programming background.
3. Higher productivity: Since python is a simple language with small codes and
extensive libraries, it offers higher productivity to programmers as compared
to languages like c++ and java. So, you write less and get more done.
4. GUI programming: Python supports GUI applications that can be created
and ported to many system calls, libraries and windows systems such as
windows MFC (microsoft foundation class library), macintosh and the X
window system of unix.
5. Ample availablity of libraries: It provides large standard libraries to solve a
task.

DISADVANTAGES OF PYTHON

1. Speed: Python is slower than C or C++. But Python, of course, is a high

level language and unlike C or C++, it is not closer to hardware.
2. Mobile Development: Python is not considered very good for mobile
development. It is seen as a weak language for mobile development.
3. Memory Consumption: Python is not a good choice for memory intensive
tasks. Due to the flexibility of datatypes, Python’s memory consumption is
also high.
4. Database Access: Python has its limitations with database access. Python’s
database access layer is found to be a bit underdeveloped and primitive.
However, it cannot be applied in the enterprises that need smooth interaction
of complex legacy data.
5. Runtime Errors: Python programmers have cited several issues with the
design of the language. Since the language is dynamically typed, it requires
more testing and has errors that only show up at run-time.

BASIC CONCEPTS OF MATPLOTLIB

1. Figure and Axes: The basic building blocks in Matplotlib are the `Figure`
and `Axes` objects. A `Figure` is the overall window or page, and `Axes` are the
individual plots or subplots within the figure. You can think of a `Figure` as a
canvas, and `Axes` as the plots on that canvas.

2. Plotting Functions: Matplotlib provides various functions to create plots.

For example, `plt.plot()` is used for line plots, while `plt.scatter()` is used for
scatter plots.

3. Customization: After creating a plot, you can customize it using methods

and functions, such as `set_title()`, `set_xlabel()`, and `set_ylabel()` for setting
titles and labels, or using `plt.legend()` to add a legend.
Matplotlib is a powerful tool with a rich set of features, making it a go-to library
for data visualization in Python.
