BASIC ELEMENTS OF PYTHON

• Variables and Data Types


• Operators
• Control Statements (if, for, while)
• Functions
• Modules
• Classes and Objects
PYTHON SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTS
• Case-sensitive.
• Indentation replaces curly braces.
• No need for variable declarations.
• Dynamic typing (no need to
declare data types).
VARIABLES IN PYTHON
• Variable: A name that refers to a value stored in memory.
• No need to declare the type.
• Variable is created when a value is assigned.
RULES FOR NAMING VARIABLES:

Must begin with a letter or underscore.


Can contain letters, digits, and
underscores.
Case-sensitive (Age and age are
different).
Avoid Python keywords (if, class, True,
etc.).
