Python
Python is a widely used high-level programming language for general-
purpose programming, created by Guido van Rossum and first released
in 1991.
Guido van Rossum was big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus and
hence had given the name of this programming language as Python.
Python uses a syntax that allows programmers to express concepts in
fewer lines of code than might be used in languages such as C++ or Java.

Python is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. Python is
designed to be highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other languages
use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical constructions than other languages.
•Python is Interpreted − Python is processed at runtime by the interpreter. You do not need
to compile your program before executing it. This is similar to PERL and PHP.
•Python is Interactive − You can actually sit at a Python prompt and interact with the
interpreter directly to write your programs.
•Python is Object-Oriented − Python supports Object-Oriented style or technique of
programming that encapsulates code within objects.
•Python is a Beginner's Language − Python is a great language for the beginner-level
programmers and supports the development of a wide range of applications from simple text
processing to WWW browsers to games.

Python Features
Python's features include −
•Easy-to-learn − Python has few keywords, simple structure, and a clearly defined syntax. This
allows the student to pick up the language quickly.
•Easy-to-read − Python code is more clearly defined and visible to the eyes.
•Easy-to-maintain − Python's source code is fairly easy-to-maintain.
•A broad standard library − Python's bulk of the library is very portable and cross-platform
compatible on UNIX, Windows, and Macintosh.
•Interactive Mode − Python has support for an interactive mode which allows interactive testing
and debugging of snippets of code.
•Portable − Python can run on a wide variety of hardware platforms and has the same interface on
all platforms.
•Extendable − You can add low-level modules to the Python interpreter. These modules enable
programmers to add to or customize their tools to be more efficient.

•Databases − Python provides interfaces to all major commercial databases.
•GUI Programming − Python supports GUI applications that can be created and ported to
many system calls, libraries and windows systems, such as Windows MFC, Macintosh, and the X
Window system of Unix.
•Scalable − Python provides a better structure and support for large programs than shell
scripting.

Python is available on a wide variety of platforms including Linux and Mac OS X. Let's
understand how to set up our Python environment.
Local Environment Setup
Integrated Development Environment
You can run Python from a Graphical User Interface (GUI) environment as well, if you have a GUI
application on your system that supports Python.
•Unix − IDLE is the very first Unix IDE for Python.
•Windows − PythonWin is the first Windows interface for Python and is an IDE with a GUI.
•Macintosh − The Macintosh version of Python along with the IDLE IDE is available from the main
website, downloadable as either MacBinary or BinHex'd files.
If you are not able to set up the environment properly, then you can take help from your system
admin. Make sure the Python environment is properly set up and working perfectly fine.

•WebDevelopment: Django, Pyramid, Bottle, Tornado, Flask,
web2py
•GUIDevelopment: tkInter, PyGObject, PyQt, PySide, Kivy, wx
Python
•Scientific and Numeric: SciPy, Pandas, IPython
•Software Development: Buildbot, Trac, Roundup
•System Administration: Ansible, Salt, OpenStack

Why Python is called Dynamically Typed?
# This will store 6 in the memory and binds the
# name x to it. After it runs, type of x will
# be int.
x = 6
print(type(x))
# This will store 'hello' at some location int
# the memory and binds name x to it. After it
# runs type of x will be str.
x = 'hello'
print(type(x))

Data Type
Number String Lists Tuples Dictionary Mutable and immutable data types

counter = 100 # An integer assignment
miles = 1000.0 # A floating point
name = "John" # A string
#name=‘sam’------“sam”------‘”sam’”
Print counter
print miles
print name

Tuples: Values Separated by commas( usually enclosed by parenthesis) and can hold any data type(immutable)
A=(4, ”Ture” ,True,34.8)
Integer
String
Boolean
Float

List: Values Separated by commas( usually enclosed by square bracket) and
can hold any data type(immutable)
A=[4, ”Ture” ,True,34.8]
Integer
String
Boolean
Float

Dictionaries: Enclosed in curly brackets, elements separated by commas usually KEY:VALUE pair by colon
DICT_VAR= {1:”L”, 2:”II”,3:”III”, name:”john”, var: 45}
Key Value

Mutable and Immutable data types
IMMUTABLE : Data Types which once created we cannot modify them are known as
Immutable String and Tuple are immutable.
My_String = “HELLO WORLD!”
My_Tuple= (1,45.8,True,”BOB”)
MUTABLE : Data Types which once created we can modify them are known as Immutable
list and Dictionaries are immutable.
My_List =[1,True,”bob”]
My_Dic= {1:45,2:45.8,3:True,name:”BOB”}

Assigning Values to Variables
• The operand to the left of the = operator is the name of the variable
the = operator is the value stored in the variable.
and the operand to the right of
• H = 5+5 H
• Multiple Assignment
•
•
Here one is allotted to multiple
x = y = z = 1
variables. We can assign objects to multiple variables.

3.1 Python Identifier
• Python identifier :-
– Identifier is the name given to entities like class, functions, variables etc. in Python. It helps
differentiating one entity from another. It can be of any length.
– Starts with a letter A to Z or a to z or an underscore (_) which is used to identify a
function, class, module or other object .
An identifier cannot start with a digit. 1variable is invalid, but variable1 is perfectly fine.
Keywords cannot be used as identifiers.
We cannot use special symbols like !, @, #, $, % etc. in our identifier.
Every class name start with capital letter.
Strange and strange are two different identifiers in python.
variable,

Strange strange
starts with uppercase. starts with lowercase.

3.2 Python Keywords
• Python keywords are mentioned below. The following are keywords of python.
False Class finally is return
None continue from lambda while
True def for nonlocal try
and del global not with
as elif if or yield
assert else import pass
break except in raise

3.3 Lines And Indentation
•
•
Blocks of code are denoted by line indentation .
The two blocks of code in our example if-statement are both indented
four spaces, which is a typical amount of indentation for Python
All the continuous lines indented with same number of spaces would form a block .
Here , there is four space indentation. It is
required to execute else there would be error.

Generates Error
Here , we have not indented
four space, and written same
code. So, “Indentation Error”
takes place.

3.4 Multi_Line Statements
• By using multi-line statements we can continue a line.
Example :
“” is used as continuation of line. It is
used universally (at any place)
“,” I used here as continuation of line, but
it is applicable only with print statement.
Statements which are in [], {}, or () brackets do not use the line continuation character.
For example:

3.5 Quotation in Python
•
•
Python accepts single ('), double (") and triple (''' or ")quotes to denote string literals.
Examples :
–
–
–
‘apple‘ ,
“welcome to python”,
''' This is another form to accept as string literals'''

3.6 Comments in Python
• There are two types of comments in python.
1. single line comment
• It begins with the hash character ("#") This is the only way to comment on Python
2.Multiple line comment
• It doesn’t exist in python.

3.6 Comments in Python
3.Waiting for the User
• The statement saying “Press the enter key to exit”, this means it waits for the user’s action.
4.Multiple Statements on a Single Line
• The semicolon ( ; ) allows multiple statements on the single line .

3.7 Suite
3.7. Multiple statement groups as suites
A compound statement consists of one or more ‘clauses.’ A clause consists of a header and a ‘suite.’ The
clause headers of a particular compound statement are all at the same indentation level. Each clause
header begins with a uniquely identifying keyword and ends with a colon. A suite is a group of
statements controlled by a clause. A suite can be one or more semicolon-separated simple
statements on the same line as the header,
indented statements on subsequent lines.
following the header’s colon, or it can be one or more
if_stmt ::= "if" expression ":" suite
( "elif" expression ":" suite )*
["else" ":" suite]
If condition is met, then clause is executed
Each such clause is suite.

3.8. Command Line Arguments
An argument
program.
sent to a program being called. More than one command lines are accepted by the
sys.argv is a list in Python, which contains the command-line arguments passed to the script.
With the len(sys.argv) function you can count the number of arguments.
If you are going to work with command line arguments, you probably want to
use sys.argv.
To use sys.argv, you will first have to import the sys module.

e :
Variables
• Variable is used to store data and to retrieve the data. That means, we can change its value .
It is not fixed. Exampl
Initially the value of x is
12, so it gives 22
After we changed it to
so it gives 20 .Hence
can change the values.

In
•
python variables are case sensitive and consists of numbers, letters and underscore.
Reserved words should not be used as a variables names.
Example : else , return ,and print etc.

Receiving input from Console
input() function is used to receive input from the console.
Syntax: input([prompt]) -> string
input() function accepts an optional string argument called prompt and returns a string.
>>> name = input("Enter your name: ")
>>> Enter your name: tim
>>> name 'tim'
Note that input() returns string even if you enter a number, to convert it to an integer you can use int() or
eval() .
>> age = int(input("Enter your age: "))
Enter your age: 22
>>> age 22
>>> type(age)

Python numbers
This data type supports only numerical values like 1 , 31.4 .
Python 3 support 3 different numerical types.
1. int - for integer values like 45 .
2. float - for floating point values like 2.3 .
3. complex - for complex numbers like 3+2j .
Integers
Integer literals in python belong to int class.
>>> i = 100
>>> i 100
Floats
Floating points are values with decimal point like.
>>> f = 12.3 >>> f 12.3
One point to note that when one of the operands for numeric operators is a float
value then the result will be in float value.
>>> 3 * 1.5
>>> 4.5

Complex number
As you may now complex number consists of two parts real and imaginary, and is denoted by j .You can define
complex number like this:
>>> x = 2 + 3j
# where 2 is the real part and 3 is imaginary
Determining types
Python has type() inbuilt function which is use to determine the type of the variable.
>>> x = 12
>>> type(x)
<class 'int'>
Python operators
Python has the different operators which allows you to carry out required calculations in your program.
+ , - and * works as expected, remaining operators require some explanation.
/ - Float Division : / operator divides and return result as floating point number means it will always return fractional
part. For e.g
>>> 3/2 1.5
// - Integer Division : // perform integer division i.e it will truncate the decimal part of the answer and return only
integer.

>>> 3//2
1
** - Exponentiation Operator : This operator helps to compute ab (a raise to the power of b). Let's take an example:
>>> 2 ** 3
# is same as 2 * 2 * 2
>>>>8
% operator : % operator also known as remainder or modulus operator. This operator return remainder after division. For
e.g:
>>> 7 % 2
1
Operator Precedence
In python every expression are evaluated using operator precedence. Let's take an example to make it clear.
>>> 3 * 4 + 1
In the above expression which operation will be evaluated first addition or multiplication? To answer such question we
need to refer to operator precedence list in python. Image below list python precedence order from high to low.

Augmented Assignment Operator
These operator allows you write shortcut assignment statements. For e.g:
>>> count = 1
>>> count = count + 1
>>> count 2
by using Augmented Assignment Operator we can write it as:
>>> count = 1
>>> count += 1
>>> count 2

Python Strings
Strings in python are contiguous series of characters delimited by single or double quotes. Python don't have any separate
data type for characters so they are represented as a single character string.
Creating strings
>>> name = "tom"
# a string
>>> mychar = 'a’
# a character
you can also use the following syntax to create strings.
>>> name1 = str()
# this will create empty string object
>>> name2 = str("newstring")
# string object containing 'newstring'
Strings in python are immutable.
What this means to you is that once string is created it can't be modified. Let's take an example to illustrate this point.
>>> str1 = "welcome“
>>> str2 = "welcome"
here str1 and str2 refers to the same string object "welcome" which is stored somewhere in memory. You can test
whether str1 refers to same object as str2 using id() function.

What is id() : Every object in python is stored somewhere in memory. We can use id() to get that memory address.
>>> id(str1) 78965411
>>> id(str2) 78965411
As both str1 and str2 points to same memory location, hence they both points to the same object.
Let's try to modify str1 object by adding new string to it.
>>> str1 += " mike“
>>> str1 welcome mike
>>> id(str1)
>>> 78965579
As you can see now str1 points to totally different memory location, this proves the point that concatenation
doesn't modify original string object instead it creates a new string object. Similarly Number (i.e int type) is also
immutable.
Operations on string
String index starts from 0 , so to access the first character in the string type:
>>> name[0] # t
+ operator is used to concatenate string and * operator is a repetition operator for string.
>>> s = "tom and " + "jerry“
>>> print(s)

tom and jerry
>>> s = "this is bad spam " * 3
>>> print(s) this is bad spam this is bad spam this is bad spam
Slicing string
You can take subset of string from original string by using [] operator also known as slicing operator.
Syntax: s[start:end]
this will return part of the string starting from index start to index end - 1 .
Let's take some examples.
>>> s = "Welcome"
>>> s[1:3]
el
Some more examples.
>>> s = "Welcome"
>>> s[ : 6]
'Welcom'
>>> s[4 : ]
'ome'
>>> s[1 : -1]
'elcom’
Note: start index and end index are optional. If omitted then the default value of start index is 0 and that of
end is the last index of the string.

ord() and chr() Functions
ord() - function returns the ASCII code of the character.
chr() - function returns character represented by a ASCII number.
>>> ch = 'b’
>>> ord(ch)
98
>>> chr(97)
'a’
>>> ord('A’)
65

>>> len("hello")
< 5 >
>>> max("abc")
<'c’>
>>> min("abc")
<'a’>
in and not in operators
You can use in and not in operators to check existence of string in another string. They are also known as
membership operator.
>>> s1 = "Welcome“
>>> "come" in s1
>>>True
>>> "come" not in s1
>>> False
String comparison

You can use ( > , < , <= , <= , == , != ) to compare two strings. Python compares string lexicographically i.e
using ASCII value of the characters.
Suppose you have str1 as "Jane" and str2 as "Jake" . The first two characters from str1 and str2 ( J and J )
are compared. As they are equal, the second two characters are compared. Because they are also equal, the third two
characters (n and k ) are compared. And because 'n' has greater ASCII value than 'k' , str1 is greater than str2 .
Here are some more examples
Here are some more examples:
>>> "tim" == "tie"
False >>>
"free" != "freedom"
True >>>
"arrow" > "aron“
True >>>
"green" >= "glow“
True >>>
"green" < "glow“
False >>>
"green" <= "glow“
False >>>
"ab" <= "abc" True >>>

Iterating string using for loop
String is a sequence type and also iterable using for loop (to learn more about for loop click here).
>>> s = "hello"
>>> for i in s:
... print(i, end="")
hello
Note: By default print() function prints string with a newline , we change this behavior by supplying a second argument
to it as follows.
print("my string", end="n") #this is default behavior
print("my string", end="") # print string without a newline
print("my string", end="foo") # now print() will print foo after every string

Testing strings
String class in python has various inbuilt methods which allows to check for different types of strings.

>>> s = "welcome to python“
>>> s.isalnum() #False
>>> "Welcome".isalpha() #True
>>> "2012".isdigit() #True
>>> "first Number".isidentifier() #False
>>> s.islower() #True
>>> "WELCOME".isupper() #True
>>> " t".isspace() # True
Searching for Substrings

s = "string in python"
>>> s1 = s.capitalize() ### s1 'String in python’
>>> s2 = s.title() ### s2 'String In Python’
>>> s = "This Is Test“
>>> s3 = s.lower()
>>> s3 'this is test’
>>> s4 = s.upper()
>>> s4 'THIS IS TEST’
>>> s5 = s.swapcase()
>>> s5 'tHIS iS tEST’
>>> s6 = s.replace("Is", "Was")
>>> s6 'This Was Test’
>>> s 'This Is Test’
>>>

Operators

Python Arithmetic Operators
We use these operators for mathematical purpose.

Python Comparison Operators
• We use these operators for conditional purpose.
Operator Description ( usage)
> if the left operator has greater value than the right one. Ex= 2>1
< If the right operator has greater value than the left one. Ex= 6<9
== If both sides of the operators are same to same .
Ex= 4==4
!= if both sides of the operators are not same.
>= If the left operator is greater than or equal to right one. Ex =
6>=6,7>=4
<= If the right operator is greater than or equal to left one. Ex=
4<=4,6<=8

Python Assignment Operators
• These are used to assign values to variables. Few one them are as shown below.
• Similarly few more operators like %=,//=,**=,&=,|= ……
Operator Description and Example
= S =2+3 means the value 2+3=6 is assigned into S
+= H+=4 means 4 is added to H and final result is saved into H.
So H+4=H. i.e if H value is 2 then 6+4=10 is stored in H.
-= H-= 4 means 4 is subtracted to H and final result is saved into
H. So H-4=H i.e 6-4=2 is stored in H.
*= H*= 4 means 4 is multiply with H and final result is saved into
H. So H*4=H i.e 6*4=24 is stored in H.

Python Logical Operators
• Logical operators are also used to check conditional statements.
Operator Description
AND used to check both the operands or true
Ex a=2,b=2 if a AND b=2
then print(‘ a AND b is’, True)
i.e output is TRUE
OR Used to check either one of the operator is true
Ex a=2,b=3 if a OR b =3
then print(‘ a OR b is ’, 3)
i.e output is b=3.
NOT Used to complement the operator
If given X is true then it shows it is false .

Python Membership Operators
• These operators are used to check whether the given values are in the sequence or not.
in If the given value is within the sequence it will displays . Example
as shown below
X = { 2,4,6,8}
Print(4 in X )
then it will display ‘True’ because 4 is within the x
Not in Opposite to IN operation.
Example : 9 Not in then it will check whether 9 is in sequence or
not. Regarding to the above sequence we do not have 9 so it will
display 9.

Python Identity Operators
• These operators are used to check whether the values are in the memory or not.
is If the operand are same then it is true.
EX: x=2,y=2 then print X is Y
.
Is not If the Operand are not same then it shows true.
Ex: x=2 ,y=2 print x is not Y then it shows false.
Ex: x=2y=3 print x is not y then it shows True.

Conditional Statements
• We use conditional statements for checking the
behavior.
Some of the conditional statements are as follows…
1. if
2.if else
3.Nested if else
condition of the statement and to change its
•
Now lets discuss about If statement.
1.If
Syntax for if is as follows
if expression:
statement(s)

•A flowchart is given for better understanding ..
• The boolean expression after the if statement is
called the condition. If it is true, then all the
given statements are executed .
Example as shown below.
Otherwise no
•
Here there is an expression “=“ which
tells that variable is assigned some value.
Here there is an expression “==“
which tells that there is a condition
The statement is executed as the
condition was true.

2.If Else
•
•
One thing to happen when a condition it true, otherwise else to happen when it is false.
Syntax:
if expression:
statement(s)
else:
statement(s)
The below flowchart describes how if else condition works
•

• If the given condition is true then statement one will display other wise second statement.
Example
Here the “if” condition hasn’t met, so
“else” statement has been executed

Nested If Else
• If the first condition is true( x<y), it displays the first one. If it is false, then checks second condition
(x>y) if it is true then displays
displays the third statement.
second statement . If the second condition is also not satisfied, then it
• Example :
To use nested else if in python, we have a
key word ”elif”. It will be executed after “if”,
and before “else”

Loops
• Executes a sequence of statements multiple times
variable. It is a continuous process.

Functions and Methods
• Function is a collection of statements which is used to perform a specific task.
• A method is a function that takes a class instance as its first parameter
•Functions in Python are similar to functions in “C”and functions/procedures in “Pascal”.
•Syntax
def function _name(parameters):
"""doc string"""
statement(s)
•Function begins with def Keyword followed by function name and parentheses
• Function naming follows the same rules of writing Python identifiers.

• We pass values through parameters or arguments and these are placed within the parenthesis.
• Colon is used to end the function header.
• Documentation string( doc string ) is used to explain what the function does.
• And optional return statement to return value from function.
How Function works in Python.

• Example 1:
“add” function is created, sum of two
parameters is returned in this function
• Example 2:
To call a function, simply use the function name with apt parameters or arguments. Here the
apt parameter is name(string). If string variable would not be provided, error will come

Function With parameters
• Parameters or arguments are used for passing values. Immutable objects cannot be changed inside
the functions or outside. But
changed outside the function.
mutable objects or opposite to Immutable objects, which can be
• Example :
“swap” function is created, to swap the values

assigned initially.
returned “original value” i.e. the value which is
After that swap statement swaps the value, so then b value is
changed to a and vice versa.

Function without parameter
There is no compulsion for a function to be associated with parameters or arguments.
“miss” function is without parameter.
It will return a constant value which is kept
under the function.
“miss” function is called here. It would be
more practical to use, when we have to print
similar statements multiple times. In such
case, each time, we have to just call the
function, in place of writing complete print
statement.

• In functions there are four parameters they are as follows
1.RequiredArguments or
positional
2 .Keyword Parameters
3. Default parameters
4. Collecting parameters

1.REQUIRED ARGUMENTS OR POSITIONAL PARAMETERS
• The arguments or parameters which are in a positional format in a( parameters must be in a order)
function is nothing but Positional Arguments or parameters. Parameters in function call will perfectly
match with the function definition.
Example
•
Here we had given 4 positions so when we give
values like 4,2,6,1 then they will take those values in
a order.

• Given values are 4,2,6,1 those can be placed in order by these positional argument.
• First value 4 will enter into val1 and then second value will be to val2 so on …
4
4 2
4 2 6
4 2 6 1
Val 1 val2 val3 val4

2 .KEYWORD PARAMETERS
• We can identify the function call as Keyword argument by its argument name.
• In this argument no need of maintaining the parameters in an order
.
• Example :
The “product” and “cost” are
keyword parameters.
The value of the parameter is taken
from function in different order as
declared in the function.

3. DEFAULT PARAMETERS
• Default parameter is nothing but parameter which is assigned default
a argument when function is called.
These values will evaluate once the function is called or defined.
Example :
when value is not assigned in
•
•
Here HRA is default parameter.
HRA(given as percent) to value x is
returned

4.COLLECTING PARAMETERS
•
•
Sometimes it can be useful to allow the user to supply any number of parameters.
Actually that’s quite possible with the help of collecting parameters
Here parameter is passed through (*)
which allows user to input any number of
parameters
Here 3 values to the parameter is
passed which is accepted by function

SCOPE OF VARIABLES
• All variables cannot be accessed
places .
at a same place or at all locations. They are accessed at different
•
•
Usually they are some Scopes for
They are :
allocating variables at a particular location.
LOCAL VARIABLES
• Variables that are accessed inside the function is called Local Variables.
GLOBAL VARIABLES
• Variables that are accessed throughout the function or outside the
program is called Global Variables.

Local & Global Variable
• If we want to search where the variable location is allocated, first search will be in Local variable if it
is not found in local variable then the search will be in Global variable . If the variable still cannot be
found in Global variable then search will be in Built in predifined Name space .
If still variables are not found there then an exception will be raised i.e. name is not defined
•
To check the output of local variable :
its value is printed under function
To check the output of global variable
: its value is printed outside the
function

RETURN
•
•
Return statement can return any type of value which python identifies.
In Python all functions return at least one value. If they are not defined then there is no return value.

RECURSION
•
•
We can call a function in recursive, i.e. the function will call itself.
Example :
The function which is created, itself
is returned -> Recursive function
• Function defining
location.
by using recursion is too costly for executing the program or due its memory

# Program to display the Fibonacci sequence up to n-th term where n is provided
by the user
# change this value for a different result
nterms = 10
# uncomment to take input from the user
#nterms = int(input("How many terms? "))
# first two terms
n1 = 0
n2 = 1
count = 0

# check if the number of terms is valid
if nterms <= 0:
print("Please enter a positive integer")
elif nterms == 1:
print("Fibonacci sequence upto",nterms,":")
print(n1)
else:
print("Fibonacci sequence upto",nterms,":")
while count < nterms:
print(n1,end=' , ')
nth = n1 + n2
# update values
n1 = n2
n2 = nth
count += 1

FILES
• In python there is a possibility to manipulate
following are the steps to use Files
files .Files are used to store objects permanently. The
5.Reading CSV, txt and excel files
4.Reading and writing files
3.Opening and closing file
2.Reading data from keyboard
1.Printing on screen

1.PRINTING ON THE SCREEEN
•
•
•
•
•
We can see the statements what we have written in the output by using PRINT statement.
This statement (print) can converts expressions
the result to the standard output.
Example : print (‘’ Welcome to python’’)
what we are passing into a string and writes
Output Welcome to python.

2.READING DATA FROM KEYBOARD
•
•
For reading data from keyboard they are 2
They are:
– Raw input Function.
– Input function.
#For version greater than python-3.0
built in functions in python.
•
The “input” function is used to get
input from the keyboard.
• #For version less than python-3.0
– Num = raw_input(“Select a number between 1 to 9”)
– print(“The number selected is: “, Num)

READING AND WRITING FILES
To know where is working
directory
Open and read function is
used here to read the file
To read multiple lines, we have to
open it with “with open “
keyword and print it in “for” loop
Nam open("filename") opens the given file for reading, and
returns a file object
name.read() file's entire contents as a string

WRITING FILES IN PYTHON
• The write() method writes any string to an open file.
• Syntax
fileObject.write(string);
Used the “write” function to
write multiple strings in the
file. “n” changes line

OPENING AND CLOSING FILES
•
•
•
•
1.
2.
The open Function:
By using Python's built-in open() function we can open a file.
Syntax
file object = open (file_name): ([, access_mode][, buffering])
file_name:Name of file.
access_mode: The access_mode determines the mode in which the file has to be opened i.e. read,
write
Used the access mode ‘w’
in “open” function in the
file

•
•
The close Function:
when the reference object of a file is reassigned to another file. Python automatically closes
file.
SYNTAX:
that
•
– fileObject.close();
Used the function “close”
to close the file

READING CSV, TXT AND EXCEL FILES
• A CSV file contains a number of rows and columns separated by commas.
•
•
Reading CSV Files
To read data from a CSV file, use the reader function to create a reader Object. Use writer() to create
an object for writing, then iterate over the rows, using writerow() to print them.
os.getcwd() helps in getting working
directory, while os.chdir is used to
change working directory
“with open” keyword and csv.reader()
function can be used to read file

Brief overview of Data Structure
• There are quite a few data structures available. The built-in data structures are: lists, tuples,
dictionaries, strings, sets and frozensets.
Lists, strings and tuples are ordered sequences of objects.
Unlike strings that contain only characters, list and tuples can contain any type of objects.
Lists and tuples are like arrays. Tuples like strings are immutables. Lists are mutables so they can be
extended or reduced at will.
Sets are mutable unordered sequence of unique elements whereas frozensets are immutable sets.

Object Declaration
•
•
We may need to declare variables to store different type of values
For declaration , there is no need to mention data type i.e. int, string or float
–
–
–
–
–
–
a = 123
b = "Python Data Structures"
c = 123.45
print("this is Int",a)
print("this is String",b)
print("this is Float",c)

Data Type
• To know the type of a variable use “type” function
–
–
–
print("Type of a is",type(a))
print("Type of b is",type(b))
print("Type of c is",type(c))
To find the type of
different variable, “type”
function is used.

List
•
•
In python, lists are part of the standard language.
We could store multiple values in a single object. Lets say we would like to store a sequence of
numbers/Id’s, this could be achieved by lists
List and Stacks, both are same in python
•
–
–
–
>>> l = [1, 2, 3]
>>> l[0]
1
It is initiated with brackets []
To access first element, we have to use bracket
as index .

List
• To insert an element at ith place
–
–
temp.insert(3,9)
print("List after insertion",temp)
• To append element to list we use append, this corresponds to push when we use list as stack
–
–
temp.append(10)
print("After append the list is",temp)

List
• To find index of any element
–
–
–
print(temp)
index = temp.index(5)
print("Index of 5 is ", index)
• To remove an element
–
–
–
print(temp)
temp.remove(5)
print("List after removing 5",temp)

List
• To reverse the list
–
–
–
print(temp)
temp.reverse()
print("List after reversing", temp)
• To sort the list
–
–
–
print(temp)
temp.sort()
print("Sorted list",temp)

List
• To remove last element of list or pop the element from stack
–
–
–
print(temp)
temp.pop()
print("List after pop",temp)
• Nested lists
–
–
nested = [[1,2,3],[2,3,4],[5,6,7]]
print("Nest list",nested)

List
• To slice ->Slicing uses the symbol : to access to part of a list:
>>> list[first index:last index:step]
>>> list[:]
Last element is accessed through -1

List as stacks
Lists is treated as stacks, that is a last-in, first-out data structures (LIFO).
An item can be added to a list by using the append() method.
The last item can be removed from the list by using the pop() method without passing any index to
it.

How to copy a list
• There are three ways to copy a list:
Even the last item of “a”
is popped out, the value
of “b” which was copied
earlier, remained intact.

How to copy a list
• The preceding techniques for copying a list create shallow copies. It means that nested objects will
not be copied. Consider this example:
Here, the value of “a” is
changed after copying.
But the value of “b” also
changed correspondingly
So, to counter such
changes, “deepcopy”
function is used

Dictionary
• The other main data type is the dictionary. The dictionary allows you to associate one piece of data (a
"key") with another (a "value"). The analogy comes from real-life dictionaries, where we associate a
word (the "key") with its meaning. It's a little harder to understand than a list, but Python makes
them very easy to deal with.
It is best to think of a dictionary as an unordered set of key: value pairs, with the requirement that
the keys are unique (within one dictionary).
A pair of braces creates an empty dictionary: {}
Placing a comma-separated list of key : value pairs within the braces adds initial key : value pairs to
the dictionary; this is also the way dictionaries are written on output.
Declaration of dictionary
•
•
•
•
 Lets say we would like to create an object which stores the name and scores of students. This
could be achieved with dictionary in keys : values format
•
•
score = {'rob' : 85, 'kevin' : 70}
print("The dictionary is",score)

Dictionary
• To get the score of any student or value in dictionary
–
–
–
–
print(score)
mar = score['kevin']
print("Marks of Kevin are",mar)
print("Marks of rob are",score['rob']) # print the score of rob

Dictionary
• Add new elements or students to the dictionary
–
–
–
–
print(score)
score['jim']= 92
score['tomy']= 56
print("The dictionary after adding jim and tomy -",score)

Dictionary
• “keys” gives you keys in dictionary, i.e. names of all students in this case
–
–
–
print(score)
names = list(score.keys())
print("List of students -",names)

Dictionary
• “values” gives you values in dictionary, i.e. marks of all students in this case
–
–
–
print(score)
marks = list(score.values())
print("List of marks -",marks)

Dictionary
• We can also look at the marks in sorted order i.e. non descending order
–
–
–
print(score)
sortedMarks = sorted(score.values())
print("List of marks in sorted order -",sortedMarks)

Dictionary
• Checks if a particular student name is there in the dictionary
–
–
–
print(score)
check = 'kory' in score
print("If kory is there in dictionary -",check)
check2 = 'jim' in score
print("If jim is there in dictionary -",check2)

Dictionary
In addition to keys and values methods, there is also the items method that returns a list of items of
the form (key, value). The items are not returned in any particular order.
In order to get the value corresponding to a specific key, use get or pop :
The difference between get and pop is that pop also removes the corresponding item from the dictionary

Dictionary
popitem removes and returns a pair (key, value); you do not choose which one because a dictionary
is not sorted :

Dictionary
To create a new object, use the copy method (shallow copy):
-> d2 = d1.copy()
You can clear a dictionary (i.e., remove all its items) using the clear() method:
-> d2.clear()
The clear() method deletes all items whereas del() deletes just one:
All the values of “d” is
cleared by the function
“clear”

Queue
• A queue is a first in, first out (FIFO) structure. This means that the first item to join the queue is the
first to leave the queue.
Importing & declaring a queue
•
–
–
–
from collections import deque
queue = deque(["aa", "bb", "cc"])
print(queue)

Queue
• Appending element to queue
–
–
–
queue.append("dd")
queue.append("ee")
print("After appending dd and ee, queue is",queue)

Queue
• Removing left element from queue
–
–
–
–
left = queue.popleft() # The first to arrive now leaves
print("After removing left element, queue is",queue)
secLeft = queue.popleft() # The second to arrive now leaves
print("After removing left element, queue is",queue)

Tuples
In Python, tuples are part of the standard language. This is a data structure very similar to the list data
structure. The main difference being that tuple manipulation are faster than list because tuples are
immutable.
To create a tuple, place values within brackets:
It is also possible to create a
tuple without parentheses,
by using commas:
To create a tuple with a single element, you must use the comma:
>>> singleton = (1, )

Tuples
Since the tuple is multiplied by 5, it
has grown into size 5 tuple from
singleton tuple
9 as value of singleton tuple , is
added at the end of tuple

Tuples
Tuples are useful because there are
•
•
•
faster than lists
protect the data, which is immutable
tuples can be used as keys on dictionaries
In addition, it can be used in different useful ways:
1. Tuples as key/value pairs to build dictionaries
Dictionary is created using tuples
Multiple values can be assigned
using tuples
“range” function generates sequence
of numbers. E.g. range(3) = (0,1,2)

Tuples
Tuple Unpacking
Tuple unpacking allows to extract tuple elements automatically is the list of variables on the left has the
same number of elements as the length of the tuple
Tuple can be use as swap function
This code reverses the contents of 2
variables p and q:

Tuples
Length
To find the length of a tuple, you can use the len() function:
>>> t= (1,2,3,4,5)
>>> len(t)
5
Tuple is immutable. So, we
can’t assign values to it.
Slicing (extracting a segment)
>>> t = (1,2,3,4,5)
>>> t[2:]
(3, 4, 5)
Copy a tuple
To copy a tuple,:
>>> t = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
>>> newt = t
>>> t[0] = 5
>>> newt
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

Tuples
Tuple are not fully immutable !!
If a value within a tuple is mutable, then you can change it:
>>> t = (1, 2, [3, 10])
>>> t[2][0] = 9
>>> t
(1, 2, [9, 10])
Math and comparison
comparison operators and mathematical functions
can be used on tuples. Here are some examples:
>>> t = (1, 2, 3)
>>> max(t)
3
Convert a tuple to a string
You can convert a tuple to a string by:
>>> str(t)

Sets
• Sets are constructed from a sequence (or some other iterable object). Since sets cannot have
duplicated, there are usually used to build sequence of unique items (e.g., set of identifiers).
“dog” is repeated two times,
but sets cannot keep
duplicate item, so one “dog”
is removed
•
•
•
Sets are mutable unordered sequence of unique elements
Sets are constructed from a sequence (or some other iterable object)
Since sets cannot have duplicated, there are usually used to build sequence of unique items

Sets
• Quick look
“^” function combines all the element
and removes all the common element
“<” function looks, if all the elements of
“a” is present in “b”
“AND” picks all the elements which are
Common in both the sets
“OR” combines all the element and
takes unique value of combined element

Sets
• Sets are iterable
–
–
i = 'cat' in animals
print(i)
–
–
j = 'crow' in animals
print(j)
animals contain( lion, cat,
dog and tiger. Since “cat” is
in “animals” set, the
statement is true. But crow
is not part of “animals” set,
so output is false.

Sets
• Set always give non-duplicate set of elements
–
–
a = set('abracadabra')
b = set('alacazam')
–
–
print("Set a is",a)
print("Set b is",b)

Sets
• Letters in a but not in b
–
–
c = a - b
print("letters in a but not in b",c)
• Letters in either a or b
–
–
d = a | b
print("letters in either a or b",d)

Sets
• Letters in both a and b
–
–
e = a & b
print("letters in both a and b",e)
• Letters in a or b but not both
–
–
f = a ^ b
print("letters in a or b but not both",f)

Frozensets
• Sets are mutable, and may therefore not be used, for example, as keys in dictionaries.
• Another problem is that sets themselves may only contain immutable (hashable) values, and thus
may not contain other sets.
Because sets of sets often occur in practice, there is the frozenset type, which represents immutable
(and, therefore, hashable) sets.
•
Frozenset is immutable. So,
we can’t assign values to it.

Frozensets
Frozensets : Using set as key in a dictionary
If you want to use a set as a key dictionary, you will need frozenset:
1 as key value, has been set
to fa (frozenset). It can be
retrieved.
Frozensets : Methods
frozensets have less methods than sets.
There are some operators similar to sets (intersection(), union(), symmetric_difference(), difference(),
issubset(), isdisjoint(), issuperset()) and a copy() method.
