Study Notes
### Data Types
- int - Whole numbers, like 5, -10
- float - Numbers with decimal points, like 3.14, -2.5
- str - Strings, sequences of characters, like "Hello", "Python"
- list - Ordered collections of items, modifiable, like [1, 2, 3], ['a', 'b', 'c']
- tuple - Ordered collections of items, immutable, like (1, 2, 3), ('a', 'b', 'c')
- dict - Unordered collections of key-value pairs, like {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 30}
- set - Unordered collections of unique items, like {1, 2, 3}, {'a', 'b', 'c'}
Variables
- Namespace - A region of memory where variables reside
- Variable Naming Rules - Must start with a letter or underscore, can contain letters, numbers, and underscores
- Variable Naming Conventions - Use lowercase letters, separate words with underscores
-
Assignment with = - Assigns a value to a variable, like
my_variable = 10
-
== vs. is -
==
checks for equality in value,is
checks for identity (same memory location)
Control Structures
-
Boolean Expressions - Evaluate to True or False
- Comparisons:
==
(equals),!=
(not equals),>
(greater than),<
(less than),>=
(greater than or equals),<=
(less than or equals)
- Comparisons:
- print - Displays output to the console
- input - Retrieves input from the user
