2. What is Python ...?
3
• Python is a general purpose programming language that
is often applied in scripting roles.
• So, Python is programming language as
well as scripting language.
• Python is also called as Interpreted language
3. Differences between pr ogram and
scripting language
4
Program
•a program is executed
(i.e. • the
source is first
compiled, • and the
result
of that
compilation is expected)
•A "program" in general,
is a
sequence of
instructions written so
that a computer can
Scripti ng
a script is interpreted
A "script" is code written in a
scripting language. A scripting
language is nothing but a type
of programming language in
which we can write code to
control
another software application.

Too much freedom and nobody can

9. Who usespython today ...
10
• Python
is
being applied in real revenue-generating products
by real companies. For instance:
•Google makes extensive use of Python in
its web search system, and employs Python's
creator.
•Intel, Cisco, Hewlett-Packard, Seagate, Qualcomm,
and IBM use Python for hardware testing.
•ESRI uses Python as an end-user
customization tool for its popular GIS mapping
products.
•The YouTube video sharing service is
largely written in Python
10. Why dopeople use Python ...?
11
The following primary factors cited by Python users
seem to be these:
•Python is object-oriented
Structure supports such concepts as polymorphism,
operation overloading, and multiple inheritance.
•It's free (open source)
Downloadingand installing Python is free and easy
Source code is easily accessible
11. • It's powerful
- Dynamic typing
- Built-in types and tools
- Library utilities
- Third party utilities (e.g. Numeric, NumPy, SciPy)
- Automatic memory management
• It's portable
- Python runs virtually every major platform used today
- As long as you have a compatible Python interpreter
installed, Python programs will run in exactly the
same manner, irrespective of platform.

12. Insta lling Python
13
• Python is pre-installed on most Unix systems,including Linux and
MAC OS X
• But for in Windows Operating Systems , user can download
from the
https ://www.python.org/downloads/
- from the above link download latest version of python IDE
and install, recent version is 3.4.1 but most of them uses
version 2.7.7 only
13. • After installing the
Python Ver#2.7.7, go to
start menu then click on
14
python 2.7 in that one
you can select

15. Running Python
16
Once you're inside the Python interpreter, type in commands at will.
•Examples:
>>> print 'Hello world' Hello world
16. Python Code Execution
17
• Python's traditional runtime execution model: source code
you type is translated to byte code, which is then run by the
Python Virtual Machine. Your code is automatically
compiled, but then it is interpreted.

Source code extension is .py
Byte code extension is .pyc (compiled python code)
18. Math

Try typing this into Code:
>>> print 3 + 12
15
>>> print 12 - 3
9
>>> print 9 + 5 - 15 + 12
11
Operators: add: + subtract: -
Note: don't type the arrows >>> !
19. Math
Rule: If you want Python to answer in floats, you have to talk
to it in floats.
20
More operators:
divide: I
multiply: *
>>> print 3 * 12 36
>>> print 12 I 3 4
>>> print 11 I 3 3
>>> print 12.0 I 3.0 4.0
>>> print 11.0 I 3.0 3.66
27. Data Type:
28
Python has many native data types. Here are the important ones:
Booleans are either True or False.
Numbers can be integers (1 and 2L floats (1.1and 1.2), fractions
(1/2 and 2/3), or even complex numbers.
Strings are sequences of Unicode characters, e.g. an HTML document.
Bytes and byte arrays,e.g. a JPEG image file. Lists are ordered
sequences of values.
Tuples are ordered,immutable sequences of va lues. Sets are
unordered bags of values.
30. List:
31
The list is a most versatile Data type ava ilable in Python which
can be written as a list of comma-sepa rated values (items)
between square brackets. Important thing about a list is that
items in a list need not be of the same type.
Example:
listl = ['physics', 'chemistry', 1997,2000];
list2 = [1, 2,3,4,5 ];
