APPENDIX 1: INTRODUCTION TO PYTHON

 

Python was designed by Guido van Rossum at the National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science in the Netherlands during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Derived from the Unix shell command-line interpreter and other programming languages including C and C++, it was designed to empower developers to write programs with fewer lines of code than other languages.21 Unlike other programming languages, Python also incorporates many English keywords where other languages use punctuation symbols.

In Python, the input code is read by the Python interpreter to perform an output. Any errors, including poor formatting, misspelled functions, or random characters left someplace in your script are picked up by the Python interpreter and cause a syntax error.

In this chapter we will discuss the basic syntax to help you write fluid and effective code.
