Python Programming Language:
Python is a high-level, general-purpose and a very popular
programming language. Python programming language (latest Python
3) is being used in web development, Machine Learning applications,
along with all cutting edge technology in Software Industry. Python
Programming Language is very well suited for Beginners, also for
experienced programmers with other programming languages like C++
and Java.

This specially designed Python tutorial will help you learn Python
Programming Language in most efficient way, with the topics from
basics to advanced (like Web-scraping, Django, Deep-Learning, etc.)
with examples.

Below are some facts about Python Programming Language:

1. Python is currently the most widely used multi-purpose, high- level
programming language.
2. Python allows programming in Object-Oriented and Procedural
paradigms.
3. Python programs generally are smaller than other programming
languages like Java. Programmers have to type relatively less and
indentation requirement of the language, makes them readable all
the time.
4. Python language is being used by almost all tech-giant companies
like – Google, Amazon, Facebook, Instagram, Dropbox, Uber…
etc.
5. The biggest strength of Python is huge collection of standard
Library.
5
Python Syntax compared to other programming languages:

Python was designed for readability, and has some

similarities to the English language with influence
from mathematics.
Python uses new lines to complete a command, as
opposed to other programming languages which
often use semicolons or parentheses.
Python relies on indentation, using whitespace, to
define scope; such as the scope of loops, functions
and classes. Other programming languages often
use curly-brackets for this purpose.

6
List of Keywords in Python:
Well simply, Python keywords are the words that are
reserved. That means you can’t use them as name of any
entities like variables, classes and functions.
So you might be thinking what are these keywords for.
They are for defining the syntax and structures of Python
language.
You should know there are 33 keywords in python

Keywords in Python programming language

False Await else import pass
None Break except in raise
True Class finally is return
and Continu for lambda try
e from nonlocal
as Def while
global not
assert Del with

The above keywords may get altered in different versions of

Python. Some extra might get added or some might be removed.
You can always get the list of keywords in your current version
by typing the following in the prompt.

ABOUT TIC TAC TOE
Tic Tac Toe, also known as Noughts and Crosses, is a classic
two-player game played on a 3x3 grid. Each player takes
turns marking a square with their symbol, either "X" or "O",
with the goal of being the first to get three of their symbols in
a row, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The game begins
with an empty grid, and players decide who goes first. The
game continues until one player achieves the winning line or
all squares are filled, resulting in a draw if no one wins. Basic
strategy involves placing your first mark in a corner or the
center to maximize winning chances, blocking the
opponent’s potential winning moves, and creating
opportunities to win in multiple ways. Variations of the game
include larger grids and 3D versions, adding more complexity
and strategic depth. Despite its simplicity, Tic Tac Toe offers
engaging gameplay that can be enjoyed by players of all
ages.
RulesGame Setup: The game is played on a 3x3 grid.Players:
Two players take turns. One player is "X" and the other is
"O".Objective: The goal is to be the first to get three of your
symbols (either Xs or Os) in a row, either horizontally,
vertically, or diagonally.Gameplay:Players decide who goes
first.Players take turns placing their symbol (X or O) in an
empty square on the grid.The game continues until one player
gets three in a row or all squares are filled (resulting in a draw
if no one wins).

8
 Basic StrategyFirst Move: If you play first (as X), place your
symbol in a corner. This gives more opportunities to create a
winning line.Second Move: If you play second (as O) and the
first player places X in the center, place your O in a
corner.Blocking: Always be on the lookout for your opponent's
moves and block them if they have two in a row.Forking:
Create opportunities where you have two ways to win (two
non-blocked lines of two).

Conclusion:
In conclusion, Tic Tac Toe is a timeless and straightforward
game that captivates players with its blend of simplicity and
strategic depth. Whether enjoyed casually or used as a tool to
introduce basic concepts of strategy and critical thinking, Tic
Tac Toe remains a popular choice for players of all ages. Its
adaptability to various formats and ease of learning make it a
staple in both educational settings and leisurely pastimes.
Despite its seemingly simple nature, mastering the game
requires foresight, planning, and the ability to anticipate an
opponent’s moves, ensuring its lasting appeal and relevance.

ABOUT RANDOM MODULE I
Python is a high-level programming language that has a vast number of built-in

modules that make programming easy and efficient. One of the essential modules in

Python is the random module. The random module allows the programmer to generate

random numbers, choose random elements from a sequence, and shuffle sequences

randomly. In this essay, we will discuss the random module in Python, its functions,

and how to use them. The random Module in Python The random module in Python

provides various functions that allow the programmer to generate random numbers,

choose random elements from a sequence, and shuffle sequences randomly. The

module provides a set of functions that are used to generate different types of random

numbers. The functions provided by the random module are easy to use and efficient.

The random module provides functions to generate different types of random

numbers, including integers, floating-point numbers, and complex numbers. The

module also provides functions to generate random numbers within a specific range. In

addition to that, the random module provides functions to randomly shuffle sequences

and to choose random elements from a sequence. Generating Random Numbers The

random module in Python provides various functions to generate different types

of random numbers. The most commonly used functions to generate random numbers

are the randint(), randrange(), and random() functions.

10
The randint() function is used to generate random integers within a

specific range. The syntax of the randint() function is as follows:

random.randint(start, end) The start and end parameters represent

the range of integers to be generated. For example, to generate a

random integer between 1 and 10, we can use the following code:

import random random.randint(1, 10)

The randrange() function is similar to the randint() function, but it
allows the programmer to specify a step value. The syntax of the
randrange() function is as follows: random.randrange(start, end,
step)

The start and end parameters represent the range of integers to be

generated, while the step parameter specifies the step value. For

example, to generate a random even number between 1 and 10, we

can use the following code:

import random random.randrange(2, 11, 2)

The random() function is used to generate random floating-point

numbers between 0 and 1. The syntax of the random() function is as

follows:

11
random.random()
For example, to generate a random floating-point number between 0

and 1, we can use the following code:

import random random.random()

Choosing Random Elements from a Sequence The random module in

Python provides a function to choose random elements from a

sequence. The function is called choice(), and its syntax is as follows:

random.choice(sequence)
The sequence parameter represents the sequence from which the

element will be chosen. For example, to choose a random element

from a list, we can use the following code:

import random
my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
random.choice(my_list)
Shuffling Sequences Randomly

12
The random module in Python provides a function to shuffle

sequences randomly. The function is called shuffle(), and its syntax is

as follows: random.shuffle(sequence) The sequence parameter

represents the sequence that will be shuffled. For example, to shuffle

a list randomly, we can use the following code:

import random my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] random.shuffle(my_list)

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the random module in Python provides various

functions that allow the programmer to generate random numbers,

choose random elements from a sequence, and shuffle sequences

randomly. The functions provided by the random module
