Python | Introduction



Python is developed by Guido van Rossum. Guido van Rossum started implementing python in 1989. Python is very simple programming language so if you are new to programming, you can learn python without facing any issue.

Features of Python

  1. Free and Open Source -                                                                                     Python is a open source language. We can easily install python.It is freely available at python's official website.

  2. High level language -                                                                                            Easy to learn and use that means it is user friendly programming language. Python language is more expressive means that it is more understandable and readable.

  3.  Interpreted language-                                                                                        Python is a interpreted programming language means that python code directly runs from its source code. There is no compiler to compile python source code. In interpreted programming language the execution of the program is done by line-by-line.

  4. Object Oriented Language -                                                                              Python supports object oriented language and concepts.

  5. Interactive language -                                                                                        Python interacts with other programming language like C,C++,Java etc.

  6. Automatic memory management -                                                                    Python support automatic memory management means that if the values or data of the variable are same it allocates single memory block.

  7. Garbage collector -                                                                                            Python has garbage collector that means it removes unused memory blocks.

  8. Large standard libraries -                                                                                   Python has large amount of libraries and provides set of modules and functions for application development.

  9. GUI programming support -                                                                          Graphical user interface can be develop by using python.

Python | Recursive Function

Python - Recursive Function Recursive function means the function call themselves within the function body until a certain condition is matched then this function is recursive function. For example:-  def fact(n):      if n==0 or n==1:           return 1      else:           return n*fact(n-1) print(fact(8)) Output:- 40320 This is the example of recursive function. In this program we create a function named as fact and we call this function within the same function. How this program works? We give the value of n is 8 so n=8. In the first if condition, 8 is not equal to 0 and 1 so it goes to the else part in the else part the sentence is return n*fact(n-1) that means 8*fact(7) now here value of n become 7 to find fact(7) again same procedure repeat up to fact(1).   Because fact(1)=1   we give this condition. Then  fact(2) => 2*fact(1) =>  2*1 =>  2   ...

Python | Data Structure Or Data Types (Sets)

Data Type Of Python In this section we will see new data type which is Sets. 3) Sets:- Set object is an unordered collection of distinct unhashable object. The common user include membership test removing duplicate from a sequence and computing mathematical operation such as intersection, union, differences etc.     Being an unordered collection set do not record element position or order of insertion. Accordingly set do not support indexing, slicing, stepping or other sequence like behavior.      We declare a set by using curly braces {}. Note:- Set can only store immutable data. Empty set:-  S = set() Set with multi element:- S = {10, 'Hi', (10, 20)} Membership:- print(10 in S) => True print(20 in S) => False Iteration:- for i in S:       print(i)  => 10       'Hi'       (10,20) Type casting:- S = "Programming" S2 = set(S) print(S2) => {'p', 'r', 'o', 'g', 'a', 'm', 'i', 'n'} In the ...
