Introduction to Python

Introduction to Python

Python is a general-purpose high-level programming language. It is an object-oriented programming language. It is easy to use due to simple syntax. However, Python has a large open-source community which contribute a wide range of packages and libraries. So, we can leverage it to develop applications fast through python.

Uses of Python: -

• We use Python to develop software applications.

• We use python to develop websites and web applications.

• We use Python for database work and data analysis

• We use Python to build Machine Learning Algorithms.

• We use Python to develop MVPs fast and Production ready.

Why We Use Python: -

1. Platform independent: - We can easily install and setup and start programming on any  

     operating systems like Windows, Mac, Linux etc.

2.  Easy syntax and less code.

3.  Fast development

4.  Fast prototyping

5.  Fast production ready application 

6.  Increased Readability

7.  Scalable

8. Portable

First Python Program: -

Now let’s write our first Python program. However, you are new to python visit Python Compiler | Python IDE | Python Code Editor to write this program there. Later we will install and setup python to do it on your computer.

Code-

Greetings = 'Say Hello'
print(Greetings)

Output-

Say Hello

As above we learned Python Introduction and why we use it. In next chapters we will learn python data types, python variables, lists, dictionaries, tuples, class, objects and functions etc.
