Basics of Python Language

What’s python?
Python is an interpreted Composite programming language. Python is an object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Which holds high-level built-in data structures, it is a combination of dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it extremely attractive for Rapid Development of Application, It is used for the scripting language to connect existing components together. It is simple and easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and for that reason reduces the cost of program maintenance.

Why do people use python?

Python is a Simple and easy language for beginners because python can have a wonderful community to help all the needs. The language is also rapidly growing domain and broadly taught in universities and used for functioning with learner-friendly devices such as the Raspberry Pi

Some quotable quotes
“You really enjoy coding with Python should be in seeing short, concise, readable classes that express a lot of action in a small amount of clear code, " Said by,- Guido van Rossum

"Python has been an important part of Google since the beginning and remains so as the system grows and evolves. Today thousands of Google engineers use Python, and Google looking for more people with skills in python."  said by,
Peter Norvig, director of search quality at Google, Inc.

 “Python is a truly wonderful language. When somebody comes up with a good idea it takes about 1 minute and five lines to program something that almost does what you want. Then it takes only an hour to extend the script to 300 lines, after which it still does almost what you want”.
- Jack Jansen
A python history lesson
    • It is a general-purpose programming and widely used for object-oriented programming, the high-level programming language.
    • It was created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991.
    • An interpreted language or composite programming language, Python has an own design philosophy that highlight code readability. Whitespace indentation is used to delimit code blocks rather than curly brackets or keywords.
    • The syntax that allows programmers to express their concepts in fewer lines of code compares with other programming languages like C++ or Java.
    • Constructs that enables the clear programming on both small and large scales
    • A feature of a Python is dynamic type system and automatic memory management.
    • It supports multiple  programming paradigms,
      • Object-Oriented
      • Imperative
      • Functional
      • Procedural
    • Python interpreters are platform Independent.
    • It has a large and comprehensive standard library
    • CPython is the reference implementation of Python and it is an open source software
    • CPython is a community-based development model, as their implementation is different variants and it is managed by the non-profit Python Software Foundation.
Advocacy news
    • IEEE Spectrum published the article about python is the fastest top programming language in 2017.
    • Dive Into Python by Mark Pilgrim. You can download this book for free on the book’s website or you can buy from Amazon
    • Think Python by Allen B. Downey. You can download this book free PDF book from Green Tea Press’s website.
    • A Byte of Python by Swaroop C H. You can download this book from his website.
    • You can also found and download the bunch of books from this website.
What’s python good for?
    • It is simple and Easy to implement scripts and it is easy to automate workflows.
    • It is used in data analytics like Google, etc., use cases like ad-hoc computations and visualizes
    • To implement server-side and client-side application logic for relatively micro-services or rapid prototyping of server-side applications that are of a larger size.
    • Python is also capable of,
    • Used in Large server applications
    • Encapsulation,
    • Type safety,
    • Runtime resulting
    • Compiled or semi-compiled language
    • Used in Client-Side code running in a browser
    • JavaScript implemented in the Python interpreter
    • Native Mobile Application Development
    • Android
    • IOS
What’s python not good for?
    • It can’t differentiate between declaration of variable and usage of a variable
    • Redefining the variable or overwriting the variable nothing in python prevention.
    • However in multiprocess interface that is very easy to implement, and it needs more memory for the same number of processes vs. threads
    • The multiprocess interface is difficult to use, however, if you are having a lot of shared data.

The compulsory features list
    • It can describe the feature of python by describing its features work together that made it is what it is, then the features of pythons’ are,
    • Type declaration and manual compilation are not required.
    • It manages memory automatically.
    • Data types and operations are in the High level.
    • OOP(Object Oriented Programming)
    • Embedded programming and extended with C.
    • Distinguished in classes, modules and Exception Handling.
    • Program constructions are done at runtime.
    • Dynamic in Nature
    • Portable interpreter.
    • Supports standard internet protocol.
    • It holds standards Built-in libraries and third-party libraries.
    • Open source software.etc,

On apples and oranges
    • Orange data analysis is, of course, loading your data through Python; this is as easy as to implement riding a bike.
    • Orange data mining toolbox available in python.
    • Python and apple Swift are very different languages
    • Python is dynamic language while swift is not,
    • Python does not make binary compiles, swift does,
    • Python is garbage collected, swift is not

Summary: why python?
When you think about building a career in the Software industry, then the first thing which programming language is better to learn and scope of the language is confusable for everyone. Python is a programming language for beginners and a powerful interpreter for professionals. If you start to learn programming language then this can be a good choice as it makes one grab some concepts of programming easily.

Python Interpreter - Difference between Compiler & Interpreter - Python Tutorials

In our series of Python tutorials previously we discussed about the Basics of Python and Installation of Python in video tutorials as well. Here in this part lets discuss about Python Interpreters. Interpreter and Compiler:             As a software developer, we use different types of programming languages such as C, C++, Java, Python depends upon our requirement. We all know that the programming languages which a human can understand are called as high-level programming language. But: The computer understands only machine learning, Hence it is needed to convert or translate the code into the machine language. Interpreter and Compilers are used to convert the source code into the machine code. What is an Interpreter? The interpreter is nothing but a program which reads and executes the code. It includes different types of codes such as Source code, Compiler code . Most common interpreters available are Python , Ruby and PERL in which they execute their respective co

Understanding Python Interpreter

How Python Runs Programs? Normally, programmers write their own python scripts with the .py extension, that are independent in the python environment. the".py" extension, which tells the operating system that the file is Python program this need to be executed in python.  After that OS decides and the interpreter is invoked, it reads the file and interprets the file. The way in which Python scripts are run on Windows and other operating systems is very different. How You Run Programs?  If you are already known to run some other languages like C, C++, Java, It is simple to run the program using an interpreter, you can able to run either command prompt or using the IDLE. Before that check here to know How to Install Python? Following are the steps to run the python file on your own,  Step 1: Open the IDLE of python and then type your code just press enter the result will be printed on your screen. Step 2: Run Python Script open the new file in the fil
