Study Notes
Python - Basic Concepts
- An ordered set of instructions to execute a task is called an algorithm or a program.
- Computers understand binary language (0s and 1s), also called machine language.
- Programs written in a high-level language (like Python) need to be converted to machine language.
- Python uses an interpreter to translate its code into machine language.
- Python is an open-source, case-sensitive language created by Guido van Rossum.
- Python uses the
Ctrl+RorF5keyboard combination to run programs. - Python is not proprietary software.
- Python code blocks are defined using indentation.
- Python script files have a
.pyextension. - Python files are saved on the system folder or a drive by default.
- Reserved words (e.g.,
for,if) cannot be used as identifiers. - Identifiers cannot contain spaces.
- Keywords in Python are in lowercase.
- Python supports interactive and script modes.
- Python scripts are saved in
.pyextension files.
