Pythonize

Welcome to Python Programming Language Part 2. In this article we are briefing you all about the python programming language basics . The output from the chaos program may not look very exciting, but it illustrates a very interesting phenomenon known to physicists and mathematicians. Let’s take a look at this program line by line and see what it does. Don’t worry about understanding every detail right away; we will be returning to all of these ideas in the next chapter. The first two lines of the program start with the # character: # File: chaos.py   # A simple program illustrating chaotic behavior. These lines are called comments. They are intended for human readers of the program and are ignored by Python. The Python interpreter always skips any text from the pound sign (#) through the end of a line. The next line of the program begins the definition of a function called main. def main(): Strictly speaking, it would not be necessary to create a main funct...

In last article we saw all the technical details, it’s time to start having fun with Python. In this article we will learn about python programming language basics . The ultimate goal is to make the computer do our bidding. To this end, we will write programs that control the computational processes inside the machine. You have already seen that there is no magic in this process, but in some ways programming feels like magic. The computational processes inside the computer are like magical spirits that we can harness for our work. Unfortunately, those spirits only understand a very arcane language that we do not know. What we need is a friendly Genie that can direct the spirits to fulfill our wishes. Our Genie is a Python interpreter. We can give instructions to the Python interpreter, and it directs the underlying spirits to carry out our demands. We communicate with the Genie through a special language of spells and incantations (i.e., Python). The best way to start lear...

In this blog today we are going to learn about python programming and its basic and what's its purpose? We have given introduction about programming language and how it works. Remember that a program is just a sequence of instructions telling a computer what to do. Obviously, we need to provide those instructions in a language that a computer can understand. It would be nice if we could just tell a computer what to do using our native language, like they do in science fiction movies. (“Computer, how long will it take to reach planet Alphalpha at maximum warp?”) Unfortunately, despite the continuing efforts of many top-flight computer scientists, designing a computer to understand human language is still an unsolved problem.  Even if computers could understand us, human languages are not very well suited for describing complex algorithms. Natural language is fraught with ambiguity and imprecision. For example, if I say: “I saw the man in the park with the telescope,” did...
