1) About Python

Python is a programming language that is simple and easy to understand. It is used in Web development, machine learning, statistic processing, and more.

2) String

Let’s Print Characters

Let’s run our first Python program! You can display characters by using print(). Characters inside the parentheses will be displayed in the console.

In Python, a sequence of characters, like “Hello Python”, is called a string. A string needs to be enclosed in single ‘ or double ” quotes. The output will be the same either way. If you don’t put it in quotes, you will get an error.

Comments

Adding # at the beginning will make the entire line a comment.
Comments will not be executed when running code, so you can use them to leave notes.

3) Integers

You can use numbers like integers in programming. Unlike strings, they don’t need to be enclosed in quotes. You can add and subtract integers just like you do in math. The spaces before and after operators are not required, but they will make the code easier to read.

Difference between Strings and Integers

Strings and integers are interpreted differently in programming. Like the images below, 3 + 5 will print 8, which is the result of the addition. However, if you enclose it in quotes and make it a string, the output will stay as 3 + 5.

4) Calculations

More Calculations

In Python, you can do other calculations like multiplication and division, but with different symbols from what you would use in math. * is for multiplication and / is for division. You can also calculate the remainder of a division using %.
