Study Notes

Data Types in Python

Python offers various data types, including integers, floats, complex numbers, and strings.
Integers are whole numbers, such as 10, -5, and 0.
Floats are decimal numbers, such as 1.5, -3.14, and 0.0001.
Floats can also be written in scientific notation using "e" to represent the power of 10. For example, 35e3 is equivalent to 35 * 10^3.
Complex numbers have a real and imaginary part and are represented with "j" for the imaginary part. For example, 3 + 5j represents a complex number with a real part of 3 and an imaginary part of 5.
Strings are sequences of characters enclosed in single or double quotes. For example, "Hello, World!", 'Python', and '123' are all strings.

Type Conversion

You can convert between data types using built-in functions like int(), float(), and complex().
For instance, float(10) will convert the integer 10 into the float 10.0.

Operators

Operators are symbols used to perform operations on values and variables.

Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic operators perform mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, floor division, modulus, and exponentiation.

Comparison Operators

Comparison operators compare values and return either True or False.
Operators include greater than (>), less than (<), equal to (==), not equal to (!=), greater than or equal to (>=), and less than or equal to (<=).

Logical Operators

Logical operators combine conditional statements to create more complex conditions.
Operators include logical AND (and), logical OR (or), and logical NOT (not).

Bitwise Operators

Bitwise operators work on bits and perform bit-by-bit operations. They are primarily used for operating on binary numbers.

Operator Precedence and Associativity

Operator Precedence dictates the order in which operators are evaluated in an expression. For example, multiplication usually has higher precedence than addition.
Operator Associativity determines how operators of the same precedence are evaluated when they appear consecutively. It can be from left to right or from right to left.

Python Lists

Lists are ordered collections of items enclosed in square brackets ([]).
They can contain elements of different data types.
Lists are mutable, meaning you can change their elements after creation.
List operations: You can concatenate lists using the + operator and repeat lists using the * operator.
List slicing: You can access specific parts of a list using the slice operator (:). For example, my_list[1:3] would extract elements at indices 1 and 2.
List methods: Python provides various built-in methods for manipulating lists, such as append(), insert(), remove(), sort(), etc.

Python Tuples

Tuples are similar to lists, but they are immutable, meaning you cannot change their elements after creation.
They are enclosed in parentheses (()).
Tuple operations: You can access tuple elements using indices and slice operators. You can also concatenate tuples using the + operator.
Important note: Tuples are often used to store related pieces of data because they prevent accidental modification.
