    Day 1: Introduction to Python

    Overview of Python: History and Features


    History:

     Created by: Guido van Rossum


     Released: 1991
     Named After: Monty Python's Flying Circus

    Features:

     High-Level Language: Easy to read and write


     Interpreted: Executes code line by line
     Dynamically Typed: No need to declare variable types
     Object-Oriented: Supports OOP principles
     Extensive Libraries: Rich standard library and third-party modules
     Community Support: Large, active community

    Python Installation and Setup


    Installing Python:

    1. Download Python from python.org


    2. Install Anaconda for data science projects anaconda.com
    3. Setup Jupyter Notebooks:
    o Install via Anaconda: conda install jupyter
    o Run Jupyter Notebook: jupyter notebook

    Basic Syntax
    Variables:

     Assign values with =


     Example: x = 10, name = "Alice"

    Data Types:

     Numbers: int, float, complex


     Strings: 'Hello', "World"
     Booleans: True, False

    Operators:

     Arithmetic: +, -, *, /, %
     Comparison: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=
     Logical: and, or, not

    Control Structures
    Conditionals:
    python
    Copy code
    if condition:
    # code
    elif another_condition:
    # code
    else:
    # code

    Example:

    python
    Copy code
    x = 10
    if x > 5:
    print("x is greater than 5")
    else:
    print("x is not greater than 5")

    Loops:

    For Loop:

    python
    Copy code
    for i in range(5):
    print(i)

    While Loop:

    python
    Copy code
    count = 0
    while count < 5:
    print(count)
    count += 1
    Day 1: Introduction to Python

    Overview of Python: Python is a high-level, interpreted programming language known for


    its simplicity and readability. It was created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991.
    Python's features include:

     Interpreted: Python code is executed line by line by the Python interpreter.


     High-level: Python abstracts many low-level programming details, making it easier to
    write and understand code.
     Dynamically typed: Variables in Python don't have explicit types and can change type
    during execution.
     Versatile: Python is used in various domains such as web development, data science,
    artificial intelligence, etc.

    Python Installation and Setup: To get started with Python, we recommend installing
    Anaconda, a Python distribution that includes popular libraries for data science and machine
    learning. Anaconda also comes with Jupyter Notebooks, an interactive computing
    environment perfect for experimenting with Python code.

    Basic Syntax: Python syntax is straightforward and easy to learn. Here are some basic
    concepts:

     Variables: Variables are used to store data. They can hold different types of data such
    as numbers, strings, lists, etc.
     Data Types: Python supports various data types including integers, floats, strings,
    booleans, etc.
     Operators: Python provides arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /), comparison operators (==,
    !=, <, >), logical operators (and, or, not), etc.

    Control Structures: Control structures allow us to control the flow of execution in our
    programs:

     Conditionals: Python supports if, elif, and else statements for decision-making.
     Loops: Python provides for and while loops for iteration.

    For example:

    # Example of a simple Python program


    name = input("Enter your name: ")
    if name == "Alice":
    print("Hello, Alice!")
    else:
    print("Hello, " + name + "!")

    Output:

    Enter your name: Bob


    Hello, Bob!

    This program prompts the user for their name and greets them accordingly.
