PYTHON Study Guide - Final Guide: Procedural Programming, Binary Number, Sublime Text
#1 Python Tutorial for Beginners | Introduction to
Python
Introduction to Python
We are starting a series on Python. Python is one of the fastest growing
languages in terms of the number of developers who are using it, the
number of libraries available, the number of companies using it, and the
areas in which it can be implemented. It's called a general-purpose
language and can be used in machine learning, GUI software
development, web development, and more.
In this video, we will discuss what Python is, why it's useful, and why you
should learn it. Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, and high-level
programming language that also supports procedural programming. It's
been around since 1989, before Java. Despite the popularity of other
languages like C, C++, Java, and JavaScript, Python is still famous and
widely used. Python has become the language of choice for research
scientists working in the fields of machine learning and AI since it's
easier to learn than other languages.
Python is easier to learn compared to other languages, such as C, C++,
and Java. Most colleges and schools teach Python, and even children
can learn it. Python has multiple versions, including 1.x, 2.x, and 3.x. We
should learn 3.x since it's the newest version.
Why is Python So Famous?
Python is famous because it's easy to learn and implement. It's used by
many big companies, including Google, YouTube, and Dropbox, and is
the main language or a support language for many. The author of
Python was a big fan of a British comedy movie called Monty Python's
Flying Circus, and that's why he named it Python.
Conclusion
Python is an easy-to-learn, general-purpose language that can be used
in various fields. In the next pdf, we will discuss how to install Python
and work with different features. I hope you enjoy this series, and let me
know in the comments if you have any questions or suggestions. Thanks
for reading!
Introduction to Python and IDEs
If you want to write code in Python, you need to have an editor.
You can use an editor like Notepad, Notepad++, Atom, or
Sublime, among others. Python can be used for machine
learning, AI, software development, or simple math operations
like adding two numbers.
To get started, you need to install a Python interpreter, which
can be downloaded from the official website or other setups. In
some cases, the interpreter may already be installed on your
computer by default.
One of the best IDEs for writing Python code is PyCharm, which
is free to use. To install Python, go to the official website,
download the setup, and follow the installation instructions.
Once you have installed Python, you can start using it in your
IDE.
PyCharm provides you with amazing features, but there are
other IDEs available in the market as well. To use Python, you
need to understand how it works and how to use the interpreter.
Verifying Python Installation
To verify that Python is installed on your computer, you can go
to your Windows and search for Python. If you have installed
Python successfully, you will see Python 3.7 or the latest version
installed.
Using PyCharm
PyCharm is one of the best IDEs for Python with many features.
To use PyCharm, you need to download and install it from the
official website. PyCharm is available in both the professional
and community versions. The community version is free to use,
while the professional version is available for a price.
