Introduction to Python

                            


PYTHON(Programing Language)

Python is an interpreted, object oriented, high level programming language. It was developed by Guido Van Rossum in 1985-1990. It is a multi- paradigm programming language. Fortunately an experienced programmer can pick up Python very quickly as it is easy language.

Why python is must?

Fig 1.1

Python is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object oriented language. Python is degined to highly readable. In python there is less use of English keywords as comparison to other language .

Python is  must for students and working professional to become a great a great software engineer specially when it work in IT sector.

●       Python is interpreted- Python is processed at runtime by the interpreter. You don’t need to compile your program before executing it. It is similar to PHP,PERL.

●       Python is Interactive- you can directly interact with interpreter to write your programs.

●       Python is beginner’s language-  Python is great language for beginners and supports the wide range of applications.

Characteristics Of PYTHON

There are following characteristics of python programming:-

⮚       Its supports functional and structured programming methods as well as OOP.

⮚       It can be integrated by C,C++,JAVA,CORBA.

⮚       It support garbage collection.

Application of Python.

❖    Easy to learn- Python has easy syntax, few keywords, simple structure. Students easily learn this language.

❖    Easy to read- It has well defined Python code.

❖    Database- Python provide interface to commercial database.

❖    GUI Programming- it support GUI application that can be created and ported to many systems.

 History

·         Python was developed in the late 1980 by Guido van Rossum at Centrum Wiskunde & Infomatica (CWI) in the Netherland as a successor to ABC programming language, which was inspired by SETL, capable of exception handling and interfacing with the Amoeba operating system. Its implementation began in December 1989. 

·         Python 2.0 was developed on 16 October 2000,with many new features.

·         Python 3.0 was developed on 3 December 2008.

·         Python 2.7’s end of life date was initially set at 2015 then postponed to 2020 out of concern that a large body of existing code could not easily be forward ported to Python3.

·         Python 3.9.2 and 3.8.8 were expedited as all version of python had security issues, leading to possible remote code execution .

 Why Python is better than other languages

✔       Presence of Third party Modules.

✔       Extensive support Libraries.

✔       Open source and community Development

✔       Learning Ease and support available.

✔       User friendly data structures

✔       Productivity and speed
