Study Notes
Python - Basic Concepts
- An ordered set of instructions to carry out a specific task is called an algorithm or a program.
- Computer understand the language of 0s and 1s, also known as binary language or machine language.
- Programs written in high-level languages (like Python) are converted to machine language using a translator (interpreter or compiler).
- Python employs an interpreter to translate its code (object or source code) into machine language.
- Python is an open-source, case-sensitive language derived from ABC.
- Python programs are run using the Ctrl+r keyboard shortcut.
- Python keywords are lowercase reserved words.
- Python code uses special syntax rules, including brackets to define and organize code blocks.
- Python scripts are typically saved with a .py extension.
- Python code can be executed in interactive or script modes.
- In interactive mode, the interpreter executes and displays the result directly.
- In script mode, the code is saved in a file and executed separately.
- Python identifies use keywords (reserved words) but allows identifiers (variable names) to include alphanumeric characters but does not include spaces.
