What is Python?
Python is a powerful multi paradigm computer programming language,
optimized for programmer productivity, code readability, and software
quality.

Guido Van Rossum

Python is named after famous British

comedy group

Source code is available under the

GNU General Public License (GPL).

Python: a Complete Language

Scripting language

Compiled language

Python provides simplicity and

ease of use of scripting
Language , along with more
advanced softwareengineering tools typically
found in compiled languages
which makes Python useful for
large-scale development
projects.

Features of Python

Portable
Python compiles and runs on every major platform currently in use.
Python can be used on 21 different operating systems and environments.

Powerful
Python's toolset places it between traditional scripting
development languages ( C ,C++ and Java)

languages (Tcl, Scheme and Perl) and systems

Mixable

Python programs
can be easily glued
to components
written in other
languages.

Ease of Syntax

Java Code to print Hello World :

Python code to print Hello World :

class Hello {

public static void main (String[] args)

{ System.out.println Hello, world. ;
}

print Hello, World

Major uses of Python

Scientific and
numeric
programming

GUIs
Camelot provides components for building applications on top of Python, SQLAlchemy and Qt.
inspired by the Django admin interface

GTK+, or the GIMP Toolkit, is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces.
Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off
toolsto complete application suites.

Kivy is a Python library for development of multi-touch enabled media rich applications.
The aim is to allow for quick and easy interaction design and rapid prototyping, while making
your code reusable and deployable.

Tkinter has the advantage of being included with the Python standard library, making it the
most convenient and compatible toolkit to program with.

PyQt is a set of Python v2 and v3 bindings for Digia's Qt application framework and runs
on all platforms supported by Qt including Windows, MacOS/X and Linux.

pyjs is a Rich Internet Application (RIA) Development Platform for both Web and Desktop.
With pyjs you can write your JavaScript-powered web applications entirely in Python.

wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows Python
programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional graphical user
interface, simply and easily

Numeric and Scientific Programming

Scipy Stack Includes modules for linear algebra, optimization, integration,
special functions, signal and image processing, statistics, genetic
algorithms

>>>a[4,:4:]
array([[44,45]
[54,55]])

Numerical Python adds a fast, compact, multidimensional array

facility to Python. creating and manipulating numerical data

IPython is a command shell for interactive computing developed for the Python
programming language that offers enhanced introspection ,rich media, additional shell
syntax, tab completion and rich history.

Numeric and scientific programming

Matplotlib : Matplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces
publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive
environments across platforms.Like Pie charts,simple plots,Histograms etc.

Pandas: pandas is an open source, BSD-licensed library providing higherformance, easy-to-use data structures and data analysis tools for the
Python programming language.

SymPy :SymPy is a Python library for symbolic mathematics. It is written entirely in

python and doesnt need any external liberary.

Rapid Prototyping
Python is an ideal choice for prototyping because:
It is Dynamically typed language: Python doesn't require you to
declare the data type of a variable. This lets you write a function that is
generic enough to handle any kind of data.

Python has Rich Set of Data-Structures: Built-in support for lists,

dictionaries, sets, etc. reduces the time involved in hunting for a library
that provides you those basic data-structures.

Python is Expressive and Succinct: The algorithms that operate on the

data-structures are intuitive and simple to use. The final code is more
readable than a pseudo code.

Component Integration
It spans multiple platforms, middleware products, and
application domains.
Python can fulfill an important integration role in the design of
large applications with a long life expectancy.
It allows a fast response to changes in user requirements that
require adapting the higher-level application logic without
changing the fundamental underlying components.
It also allows quick adaptation of the application to changes in
the underlying components.

Getting Started With Python

Print hello
world
Print hello world

If else structure
a = 10
b = 20
If a>b:
print a is greater
else:
print b is greater

for loop
for x in range(10):
print(x)
