Complete Guide to Python

1. What is Python?

Python is a high-level, interpreted programming language created by Guido van Rossum and

released in 1991. It is popular for its readability and wide application in web development, data

science, automation, and more.

2. Python Basics

Variables store data.

Example:

name = 'Arjun'

age = 13

Data Types:

- int, float, str, bool, list, tuple, set, dict

Input/Output:

print('10 or younger')

Loops:

- for i in range(5): print(i)

- while count < 5: count += 1

4. Functions

Functions allow code reuse.

Example:

def greet(name):

print('Hello', name)

greet('Arjun')

5. Data Structures

List: fruits = ['apple', 'banana']

Tuple: coordinates = (10, 20)

Set: {1, 2, 3}

Dict: {'name': 'Arjun'}

6. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Classes define templates for objects.

Example:

class Student:

def __init__(self, name, age):

self.name = name

self.age = age

7. Advanced Topics

- Modules: import math

- File Handling: with open('file.txt') as f

- Error Handling: try/except

8. Libraries & Frameworks

Web: Flask, Django

Data Science: NumPy, pandas

ML: TensorFlow, scikit-learn

Automation: Selenium

9. Python Special Features

- List comprehensions: [x*x for x in range(10)]

- Lambda: lambda x, y: x + y

10. Real-World Usage

Used by NASA, Google, Instagram. Python powers AI, web apps, games, and automation tools.
