Purpose of indentation in Python
Indentation is used to define blocks of code, indicating which statements belong to a particular control structure (e.g., loops, conditional statements, functions).

A mutable data type is one that can be changed after it is created. Lists and dictionaries are mutable, tuples are not.

Study Notes
- Indentation in Python code is used to define the structure and scope of code blocks.
- A mutable data type in Python that can be changed after creation is a list.
- In Python, the
upper()
method can be used to convert a string to uppercase. - Lists are mutable, ordered sequences of items and can contain a mix of data types.
- A valid way to define a dictionary in Python is using curly braces
{}
with key-value pairs separated by colons. - Strings and tuples are examples of immutable data types in Python, meaning their values cannot be changed after they are created.
- If you try to add a duplicate element to a set, it will not be added, as sets only store unique elements.
- The correct way to open a file for writing in Python is by using the
open()
function with the mode'w'
. - To import a specific function from a module, you can use the
from module import function
statement. - The output of the code
print([x * 2 for x in range(5)])
will be[0, 2, 4, 6, 8]
, because the list comprehension iterates through the numbers 0 to 4 and doubles each value.
