Revision of the Basics of Python
Revision of the Basics of Python
It is used for:
software development,
web development (server-side),
system scripting,
Mathematics.
Features of Python
1. Easy to use – Due to simple syntax rule
2. Interpreted language – Code execution &
interpretation line by line
3. Cross-platform language – It can run on
windows,linux,macinetosh etc. equally
4. Expressive language – Less code to be written as it
itself express the purpose of the code.
5. Completeness – Support wide rage of library
6. Free & Open Source – Can be downloaded freely
and source code can be modify for improvement
Shortcomings of Python
1. Lesser libraries – as compared to other
programming languages like c++,java,.net
2. Slow language – as it is interpreted languages,it
executes the program slowly.
3. Weak on Type-binding – It not pin point on use of a
single variable for different data type.

Data Types
Data Type specifies which type of value a variable can store.
type() function is used to determine a variable's type in
Python.
Data type continue
1. Number In Python
It is used to store numeric values
Output :-
301.4
121.0
Data type continue
3. Complex numbers
Complex numbers are combination of a real
and imaginary part.Complex numbers are in the form
of X+Yj, where X is a real part and Y is imaginary part.
e.g.
a = complex(5) # convert 5 to a real part val and zero imaginary part
print(a)
b=complex(101,23) #convert 101 with real part and 23 as imaginary part
print(b)Run Code
Output :-
(5+0j)
Data type continue
2. String In Python
A string is a sequence of characters. In python we can create string using
single (' ') or double quotes (" ").Both are same in python. e.g.
str='computer science'
print('str-', str) # print string
print('str[0]-', str[0]) # print first char 'h'
print('str[1:3]-', str[1:3]) # print string from postion 1 to 3 'ell'
print('str[3:]-', str[3:]) # print string staring from 3rd char 'llo world'
print('str *2-', str *2 ) # print string two times
print("str +'yes'-", str +'yes') # concatenated string
Output
str- computer science
str[0]- c
str[1:3]- om
str[3:]- puter science
str *2- computer sciencecomputer science
Data type continue
Iterating through string
e.g.
str='comp sc'
for i in str:
print(i)
Output
c
o
m
p
s
c
Data type continue
3. Boolean In Python
It is used to store two possible values either true or
false
e.g.
str="comp sc"
boo=str.isupper() # test if string contains upper case
print(boo)
Output
False
Data type continue
4.List In Python
List are collections of items and each item has its own index value.
5. Tuple In Python
List and tuple, both are same except ,a list is mutable python objects and tuple is
immutable Python objects. Immutable Python objects mean you cannot modify the
contents of a tuple once it is assigned.
e.g. of list e.g. of tuple
list =[6,9] tup=(66,99)
list[0]=55 Tup[0]=3 # error message will be displayed
print(list[0]) print(tup[0])
print(list[1]) print(tup[1])
OUTPUT
55
Data type continue
6. Set In Python
It is an unordered collection of unique and
immutable (which cannot be modified)items.
e.g.
set1={11,22,33,22}
print(set1)
Output
{33, 11, 22}
Data type continue
7. Dictionary In Python
It is an unordered collection of items and each item
consist of a key and a value.
e.g.
dict = {'Subject': 'comp sc', 'class': '11'}
print(dict)
print ("Subject : ", dict['Subject'])
print ("class : ", dict.get('class'))
Output
{'Subject': 'comp sc', 'class': '11'}
Subject : comp sc
Operator
Operators are special symbols in Python that carry out arithmetic or logical
computation. The value that the operator operates on is called the operand.
Arithmetic operators
Used for mathematical operation
Operator Meaning Example
x+y
+ Add two operands or unary plus
+2
x-y
- Subtract right operand from the left or unary minus
-2
* Multiply two operands x*y
/ Divide left operand by the right one (always results into float) x/y
% Modulus - remainder of the division of left operand by the right x % y (remainder of x/y)
# driver code
principal = 10000;
rate = 10;
time = 2;
emi = emi_calculator(principal, rate, time);
print("Monthly EMI is= ", emi)
Operator continue
Arithmatic operator continue
How to calculate GST
GST ( Goods and Services Tax ) which is included in netprice of
product for get GST % first need to calculate GST Amount by subtract original
cost from Netprice and then apply
GST % formula = (GST_Amount*100) / original_cost
# Python3 Program to compute GST from original and net prices.
def Calculate_GST(org_cost, N_price):
# return value after calculate GST%
return (((N_price - org_cost) * 100) / org_cost);
# Driver program to test above functions
org_cost = 100
N_price = 120
print("GST = ",end='')
print(round(Calculate_GST(org_cost, N_price)),end='')
print("%")
Operator continue
Comparison operators -used to compare values
Operator Meaning Example
> Greater that - True if left operand is greater than the right x>y
< Less that - True if left operand is less than the right x<y
<= Less than or equal to - True if left operand is less than or equal to the right x <= y
Operator continue
Comparison operators continue
e.g.
x = 101
y = 121
print('x > y is',x>y)
print('x < y is',x<y)
print('x == y is',x==y)
print('x != y is',x!=y)
print('x >= y is',x>=y)
print('x <= y is',x<=y)
Output
('x > y is', False)
('x < y is', True)
('x == y is', False)
('x != y is', True)
('x >= y is', False)
Operator continue
Logical operators
Operator Meaning Example
Bitwise operators
Used to manipulate bit values.
Operator Description
in Evaluates to true if it finds a variable in the specified sequence and false otherwise.
not in Evaluates to true if it does not finds a variable in the specified sequence and false otherwise.
e.g.
a=5
b = 10
list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]
if ( a in list ):
print ("Line 1 - a is available in the given list")
else:
print ("Line 1 - a is not available in the given list")
if ( b not in list ):
print ("Line 2 - b is not available in the given list") output
else: Line 1 - a is available in the given list
Operator continue
Python Identity Operators
Operat Description
or
Evaluates to true if the variables on either side of the operator point to the same
is
object and false otherwise.
Evaluates to false if the variables on either side of the operator point to the same
is not
object and true otherwise.
e.g.
a = 10
b = 10
print ('Line 1','a=',a,':',id(a), 'b=',b,':',id(b))
if ( a is b ):
print ("Line 2 - a and b have same identity")
else:
print ("Line 2 - a and b do not have same identity")
OUTPUT
('Line 1', 'a=', 10, ':', 20839436, 'b=', 10, ':', 20839436)
Operator continue
Operators Precedence :highest precedence to lowest precedence table
Operator Description
** Exponentiation (raise to the power)
~+- Complement, unary plus and minus (method names for the last two are +@ and -@)
floor(n) It returns the largest integer less than or equal to n math.floor(4.2) returns 4
Output :-
condition matcing the criteria
-----------------------------------------------------------
a=100
if not(a == 20):
print('a is not equal to 20')
Output :-
a is not equal to 20
Decision Making Statement
2. if-else Statements
If-else statement executes some code if the test expression is true
(nonzero) and some other code if the test expression is false.
Decision Making Statement
2. if-else Statements
Syntax:
if(condition):
statements
else:
statements
e.g.
a=10
if(a < 100):
print(‘less than 100')
else:
print(‘more than equal 100')
OUTPUT
less than 100
Decision Making Statement
3. Nested if-else statement
The nested if...else statement allows you to check for multiple
test expressions and execute different codes for more than two
conditions.
Decision Making Statement
3. Nested if-else statement
Syntax
If (condition):
statements
elif (condition):
statements
else:
statements
E.G.
num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
if num >= 0:
if num == 0:
print("Zero")
else:
print("Positive number")
else:
print("Negative number")
OUTPUT
Enter a number: 5
Positive number
Iteration Statements (Loops)
Iteration statements(loop) are used to execute a block of
statements as long as the condition is true.
Loops statements are used when we need to run same code
again and again.
2. For Loop
x=1
while (x < 3):
print('inside while loop value of x is ',x)
x=x+1
else:
print('inside else value of x is ', x)
Output
inside while loop value of x is 1
inside while loop value of x is 2
inside else value of x is 5
Iteration Statements (Loops)
While Loop continue
Infinite While Loop
e.g.
x=5
while (x == 5):
print(‘inside loop')
Output
Inside loop
Inside loop
…
…
Iteration Statements (Loops)
2. For Loop
It is used to iterate over items of any sequence, such as a list
or a string.
Syntax
for val in sequence:
statements
e.g.
for i in range(3,5):
print(i)
Output
3
Iteration Statements (Loops)
2. For Loop continue
Example programs
for i in range(5,3,-1):
print(i)
Output
5
4
range() Function Parameters
start: Starting number of the sequence.
stop: Generate numbers up to, but not including this number.
step(Optional): Determines the increment between each numbers in the
Iteration Statements (Loops)
2. For Loop continue
For Loop With Else
e.g.
for i in range(1, 4):
print(i)
else: # Executed because no break in for
print("No Break")
Output
1
2
3
Iteration Statements (Loops)
2. For Loop continue
Nested For Loop
e.g.
for i in range(1,3):
for j in range(1,11):
k=i*j
print (k, end=' ')
print()
Output
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Iteration Statements (Loops)
3. Jump Statements
Jump statements are used to transfer
the program's control from one location to another. Means
these are used to alter the flow of a loop like - to skip a part
of a loop or terminate a loop
print("The end")
Output
s
t
r
Iteration Statements (Loops)
2.continue
It is used to skip all the remaining statements in the
loop and move controls back to the top of the loop.
e.g.
for val in "init":
if val == "i":
continue
print(val)
print("The end")
Output
n
t
The end
Iteration Statements (Loops)
3. pass Statement
This statement does nothing. It can be used when a statement is
required syntactically but the program requires no action.
Use in loop
while True:
pass # Busy-wait for keyboard interrupt (Ctrl+C)
In function
It makes a controller to pass by without executing any code.
e.g.
def myfun():
pass #if we don’t use pass here then error message will be shown
print(‘my program')
OUTPUT
Iteration Statements (Loops)
3. pass Statement continue
e.g.
for i in 'initial':
if(i == 'i'):
pass
else:
print(i)
OUTPUT
n
t
a
L
NOTE : continue forces the loop to start at the next iteration
while pass means "there is no code to execute here" and
will continue through the remainder or the loop body.
