Study Notes

Python Programming Concepts

  • Comments: Comments in Python are ignored by the interpreter. Single-line comments begin with #, and multi-line comments start with """ and end with """.

  • Single-line Comments: In Python, a single-line comment begins with the # symbol.

  • Multi-line Comments: In Python, a multi-line comment starts and ends with three double quotes " """.

  • Data Types:

    • Python has various data types
    • Sequences are data types like strings, which hold multiple items.
    • A group of characters arranged in a specific format.
    • String is a sequence of characters.
    • Numeric types include integers, floats, and complex numbers.
    • A collection of valid characters that a programming languages can recognize.
  • Tokens: The smallest individual unit in a Python program, a token identifies components like identifiers, operators, and literals.

  • Identifiers: Identifiers in Python are names given to variables, functions, classes, etc. They consist of letters, numbers, and underscores, but cannot start with a number. Valid examples are myVariable, FILE34, and F_L. An invalid example is 34File.

  • Keywords: Keywords are reserved words in Python, and they cannot be used as identifiers.

  • Literals: Literals represent fixed values in a program and can be numbers, strings, or booleans.

  • Operators: Operators are symbols used to perform operations on operands (values). They can be arithmetic, logical, or comparison operators.

  • Data Structures:

    • Strings: Sequences of characters enclosed in quotation marks.
    • Integers: Whole numbers (e.g., 10, -5).
    • Floats: Numbers with decimal points (e.g., 3.14, -2.5).
    • Dictionaries: Unordered collections of key-value pairs.
    • Boolean: Represents True or False.
    • Lists: Ordered collections of items.
    • Tuples: Immutable ordered collections of items.
  • Input Function:

    • The input() function is used to take input from the user.
    • Input is treated as a string.
    • If the user intends to input a numerical value, it will need further conversion, such as int().

Python Specifics

  • Input: The input() function obtains input from the user. This input is treated as a string initially.

  • Data Types: Python has different types of data:

    • Integers, floats, booleans, strings, collections, etc.
  • Input Handling: If the user wants to input a number, the input() function's output should be converted into the appropriate type (e.g., int or float) using a conversion function.
