Tokens in Python

 A program in Python contains a sequence of


instructions.

 Python breaks each statement into a sequence of


lexical components known as tokens.

 List of tokens supported by python are as follows

Tokens Meaning and Examples


a) Keywords - Reserved words (ex: if, else, for)

b) Identifiers - Name used to define/find variable


c) Operators - Used to perform operations.(<,>,+,* etc)
d) Delimiters - Symbols are delimiters.( :, ‘,’, ;, etc)
e) Literals -Can be anything number of string(78, ’21.90’,’bye’)
Python Core Types (Data Types)
 Integer - 10, 20, -2, etc…
 Float - 12.34, 45.21, 12.766 , etc.
 Complex – 1 + 4j, 2-8j
 Boolean – True, False
 String - ‘Hello World’, ‘bye’

Note: In Build function type is used to know the type


of any value.

Example: (Execute on interactive mode)


>>> type(‘Hello World’)
<class ‘str’>
>>> type(123)
<class ‘int’>
>>> type(3+4j)
<class ‘complex’>
The Print() Function
 The print() function is used to display the contents on the
screen.

Syntax:
print(arguments)
 Note: The argument of the print function can be a value of any
type int, str, float etc.

Example:

>>>print('Welcome to Python')
Welcome to Python
>>> a = 10
>>> print(a)
10
Assigning Values to a Variable
Assigning value to a variable is called an assignment
statement.

Syntax:
Variable = Expression
Example:
>>> a = 10
>>> a
>>> 10
>>> str = ‘Hello’
>>> str
>>> ‘Hello’
Multiple Assignments
Python supports simultaneous assignment to
multiple variables.
Syntax:
Var1,Var2, Var3…. = Exp1, Exp2, Exp3…
>>> P , Q = 10, 20
>>> p
10
>>> Q
>>> 20
The input() function
It is used to accept an input from a user.

Syntax:

Variable_Name = input()
OR
Variable_Name = input(‘String’)

Example:
>>> str1 = input('Please Enter the String:')
Please Enter the String:amit
>>> print(str1)
amit
FORMATTING NUMBER AND
STRINGS
 A formatting string helps make string look presentable to the user for
printing.

 A programmer can make use of format function to return a formatted


string.

Syntax:
format(item, format-specifier)
Where,
- item is the number or string
- format-specifier is a string that specifies how the item is
formatted

Example:
>>> z= 12.345
>>> z
12.345
>>> format(z,'.2f')
'12.35'
Python Various inbuilt function
Name of Function Meaning Example:
max(x1,x2, x3,…….XN) Returns Largest >>>max(10,20,30)
among X1, X2, >>>30
…..XN
min(x1,x2, x3,…….XN) Returns smallest >>>min(10,20,30)
among X1, X2, >>>30
…..XN
abs(x) Returns absolute >>>abs(-10)
value of x >>>10
>>>abs(4)
4
pow(X,Y) Returns XY >>>pow(2,3)
8
Round(x) Return the value >>> round(10.23)
nearest to the 10
value of x >>> round(10.90)
11
List of Function under math Module
Name of Meaning Example:
Function
Round X to nearest integer and >>>import math
ceil(X) returns that integer. >>> math.ceil(10.23)
11
floor(X) Returns the largest value not greater >>>import math
than X >>> math.floor(18.9)
18
exp(X) Returns the exponential value for ex >>>import math
>>> math.exp(1)
2.718281828459045

log(X) Returns the natural logarithmic of x >>>import math


(to base e) >>> math.log(2.71828)
0.999999327347282

log(x,base) Returns the logarithmic of x to the >>>import math


given base >>> math.log(8,2)
3.0
Note: a) There are many other function such as sqrt(), sin(), cos(), tan(),
asin(), acos(), degrees(), etc under math module
b) The statement import math should be the first statement should be written on
interactive mode when you are trying to execute any of the math function.
Conclusion
 keywords, Identifiers, Operators, Delimiters, and
Literals are the various list tokens supported by
python.

 print function is used to display contents on the screen

 The input() function is used to accept input from the


user.

 format() function can be used to return a formatted


string.
