Running Python in interactive mode:
Without passing python script file to the interpreter, directly execute code to Python prompt.
Once you’re inside the python interpreter, then you can start.
>>> print("hello world")
hello world
# Relevant output is displayed on subsequent lines without the >>> symbol
>>> x=[0,1,2]
# Quantities stored in memory are not displayed by default.
>>> x
#If a quantity is stored in memory, typing its name will display it.
[0, 1, 2]
>>> 2+3

The chevron at the beginning of the 1st line, i.e., the symbol >>> is a prompt the python
interpreter uses to indicate that it is ready. If the programmer types 2+6, the interpreter
replies 8.

In Python (and almost all other common computer languages), a tab character can be
specified by the escape sequence t:

List:
It is a general purpose most widely used in data structures
List is a collection which is ordered and changeable and allows duplicate members.
(Grow and shrink as needed, sequence type, sortable).
To use a list, you must declare it first. Do this using square brackets and separate
values with commas.
We can construct / create list in many ways.
Ex:
>>> list1=[1,2,3,'A','B',7,8,[10,11]]
>>> print(list1)
[1, 2, 3, 'A', 'B', 7, 8, [10, 11]]

Variables:
Variables are nothing but reserved memory locations to store values. This means that when
you create a variable you reserve some space in memory.
Based on the data type of a variable, the interpreter allocates memory and decides what can
be stored in the reserved memory. Therefore, by assigning different data types to variables,
you can store integers, decimals or characters in these variables.
Rules for Python variables:
• A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character
• A variable name cannot start with a number
• A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores (A-z, 0-9,
and _ )
• Variable names are case-sensitive (age, Age and AGE are three different variables)
Assigning Values to Variables:
Python variables do not need explicit declaration to reserve memory space. The declaration
happens automatically when you assign a value to a variable. The equal sign (=) is used to
assign values to variables.
The operand to the left of the = operator is the name of the variable and the operand to the
right of the = operator is the value stored in the variable.

Modules:
Modules: Python module can be defined as a python program file which contains a python
code including python functions, class, or variables. In other words, we can say that our
python code file saved with the extension (.py) is treated as the module. We may have a
runnable code inside the python module. A module in Python provides us the flexibility to
organize the code in a logical way. To use the functionality of one module into another, we
must have to import the specific module.
Syntax:
import <module-name>
Every module has its own functions, those can be accessed with . (dot)
Note: In python we have help ()
Enter the name of any module, keyword, or topic to get help on writing Python programs
and using Python modules. To quit this help utility and return to the interpreter, just type
"quit".
Some of the modules like os, date, and calendar so on……
>>> import sys
>>> print(sys.version)
3.8.0 (tags/v3.8.0:fa919fd, Oct 14 2019, 19:21:23) [MSC v.1916 32 bit (Intel)]
>>> print(sys.version_info)
sys.version_info(major=3, minor=8, micro=0, releaselevel='final', serial=0)
>>> print(calendar.month(2021,5))

return -x
else:
return x
Since these return statements are in an alternative conditional, only one will be executed.
As soon as a return statement executes, the function terminates without executing any
subsequent statements. Code that appears after a return statement, or any other place the
flow of execution can never reach, is called dead code.
In a fruitful function, it is a good idea to ensure that every possible path through the program
hits a return statement. For example:
def absolute_value(x):
if x < 0:
return -x
if x > 0:
return x
This function is incorrect because if x happens to be 0, both conditions is true, and the
function ends without hitting a return statement. If the flow of execution gets to the end of a
function, the return value is None, which is not the absolute value of 0.
>>> print absolute_value(0)
None
By the way, Python provides a built-in function called abs that computes absolute values.
# Write a Python function that takes two lists and returns True if they have at least one
common member.

for x in list1:

Function Composition:
Having two (or more) functions where the output of one function is the input for another. So
for example if you have two functions FunctionA and FunctionB you compose them by
doing the following.
FunctionB(FunctionA(x))
Here x is the input for FunctionA and the result of that is the input for FunctionB.
Example 1:
#create a function compose2
>>> def compose2(f, g):
return lambda x:f(g(x))
>>> def d(x):
return x*2
>>> def e(x):
return x+1
>>> a=compose2(d,e) # FunctionC = compose(FunctionB,FunctionA)
>>> a(5) # FunctionC(x)

In the above program we tried to compose n functions with the main function created.
Example 2:
>>> colors=('red','green','blue')
>>> fruits=['orange','banana','cherry']
>>> zip(colors,fruits)

Recursion:
Recursion is the process of defining something in terms of itself.
Python Recursive Function
We know that in Python, a function can call other functions. It is even possible for the
function to call itself. These type of construct are termed as recursive functions.
Factorial of a number is the product of all the integers from 1 to that number. For example,
the factorial of 6 (denoted as 6!) is 1*2*3*4*5*6 = 720.
Following is an example of recursive function to find the factorial of an integer.
# Write a program to factorial using recursion
def fact(x):
if x==0:
result = 1
else :
result = x * fact(x-1)
return result
print("zero factorial",fact(0))
print("five factorial",fact(5))
Output:
zero factorial 1
five factorial 120
----------------------
def calc_factorial(x):
"""This is a recursive function
to find the factorial of an integer"""
if x == 1:
return 1
else:
return (x * calc_factorial(x-1))

![PYTHON PROGRAMMING

num = 4
print("The factorial of", num, "is", calc_factorial(num))
Output:
The factorial of 4 is 24
Strings:
A string is a group/ a sequence of characters. Since Python has no provision for arrays,
we simply use strings. This is how we declare a string. We can use a pair of single or
double quotes. Every string object is of the type ‘str’.
>>> type("name")
<class 'str'>
>>> name=str()
>>> name
''
>>> a
>>> a[2]
'c'
>>> fruit = 'banana'
>>> letter = fruit[1]
The second statement selects character number 1 from fruit and assigns it to letter. The
expression in brackets is called an index. The index indicates which character in the
sequence we want
String slices:
A segment of a string is called a slice. Selecting a slice is similar to selecting a character:
Subsets of strings can be taken using the slice operator ([ ] and [:]) with indexes starting at 0
in the beginning of the string and working their way from -1 at the end.
Slice out substrings, sub lists, sub Tuples using index.
Syntax:[Start: stop: steps]
Slicing will start from index and will go up to stop in step of steps.
Default value of start is 0,

Stop is last index of list
And for step default is 1
For example 1−
str = 'Hello World!'
print str # Prints complete string
print str[0] # Prints first character of the string
print str[2:5] # Prints characters starting from 3rd to 5th
print str[2:] # Prints string starting from 3rd character print
str * 2 # Prints string two times
print str + "TEST" # Prints concatenated string
Output:
Hello World!
H

llo World!
Hello World!Hello World!
Hello World!TEST

>>> x='computer'
>>> x[1:4]
'omp'
>>> x[1:6:2]

>>> x[3:]

>>> x[::-2]
'rtpo'
>>> x[::-1]
'retupmoc'
Immutability:
It is tempting to use the [] operator on the left side of an assignment, with the intention of
changing a character in a string.
For example:
>>> greeting[0]='n'
TypeError: 'str' object does not support item assignment
The reason for the error is that strings are immutable, which means we can’t change an
existing string. The best we can do is creating a new string that is a variation on the original:
>>> greeting = 'Hello, world!'
>>> new_greeting = 'J' + greeting[1:]
>>> new_greeting
'Jello, world!'
Note: The plus (+) sign is the string concatenation operator and the asterisk (*) is the
repetition operator

Python String Module Classes
Python string module contains two classes – Formatter and Template.
Formatter
It behaves exactly same as str.format() function. This class becomes useful if you want to
subclass it and define your own format string syntax.
Syntax: from string import Formatter
Template
This class is used to create a string template for simpler string substitutions
Syntax: from string import Template
Python arrays:
Array is a container which can hold a fix number of items and these items should be of the
same type. Most of the data structures make use of arrays to implement their algorithms.
Following are the important terms to understand the concept of Array.
Element− Each item stored in an array is called an element.
Index − Each location of an element in an array has a numerical index, which is used
to identify the element.
Array Representation

Arrays can be declared in various ways in different languages. Below is an illustration.
Elements
Int array [10] = {10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 85, 90}
Type Name Size Index 0
As per the above illustration, following are the important points to be considered.
Index starts with 0.
Array length is 10 which means it can store 10 elements.
Each element can be accessed via its index. For example, we can fetch an element at
index 6 as 70
Basic Operations
Following are the basic operations supported by an array.
Traverse − print all the array elements one by one.
Insertion − Adds an element at the given index.
Deletion − Deletes an element at the given index.
Search − Searches an element using the given index or by the value.
Update − Updates an element at the given index.
Array is created in Python by importing array module to the python program. Then the
array is declared as shown below.
from array import *
arrayName=array(typecode, [initializers])
Typecode are the codes that are used to define the type of value the array will hold. Some
common typecodes used are:
Typecode Value
b Represents signed integer of size 1 byte/td>
B Represents unsigned integer of size 1 byte

75
c Represents character of size 1 byte
i Represents signed integer of size 2 bytes
I Represents unsigned integer of size 2 bytes
f Represents floating point of size 4 bytes
d Represents floating point of size 8 bytes
Creating an array:
from array import *
array1 = array('i', [10,20,30,40,50])
for x in array1:
print(x)
Output:
>>>
10
20
30
40
50
Access the elements of an Array:
Accessing Array Element
We can access each element of an array using the index of the element.
from array import *
array1 = array('i', [10,20,30,40,50])
print (array1[0])
print (array1[2])

List is a collection which is ordered and changeable and allows duplicate members.
(Grow and shrink as needed, sequence type, sortable).
To use a list, you must declare it first. Do this using square brackets and separate
values with commas.
We can construct / create list in many ways.

List operations:
These operations include indexing, slicing, adding, multiplying, and checking for
membership
Basic List Operations:
Lists respond to the + and * operators much like strings; they mean concatenation and
repetition here too, except that the result is a new list, not a string.
Python Expression Results Description
len([1, 2, 3]) 3 Length
[1, 2, 3] + [4, 5, 6] [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Concatenation
['Hi!'] * 4 ['Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!', 'Hi!'] Repetition
3 in [1, 2, 3] True Membership
for x in [1, 2, 3]: print x, 1 2 3 Iteration
Indexing, Slicing, and Matrixes
Because lists are sequences, indexing and slicing work the same way for lists as they do for
strings.

List loop:
Loops are control structures used to repeat a given section of code a certain number of times
or until a particular condition is met.
Method #1: For loop
#list of items
list = ['M','R','C','E','T']

i = 1
#Iterating over the list
for item in list:
print ('college ',i,' is ',item)
i = i+1
Output:
college 1 is M
college 2 is R
college 3 is C
college 4 is E
college 5 is T
Method #2: For loop and range()
In case we want to use the traditional for loop which iterates from number x to number y.
# Python3 code to iterate over a list
list = [1, 3, 5, 7, 9]
# getting length of list
length = len(list)
# Iterating the index
# same as 'for i in range(len(list))'
for i in range(length):
print(list[i])
Output:

Aliasing:
1. An alias is a second name for a piece of data, often easier (and more useful) than
making a copy.
2. If the data is immutable, aliases don’t matter because the data can’t change.
3. But if data can change, aliases can result in lot of hard – to – find bugs.
4. Aliasing happens whenever one variable’s value is assigned to another variable.
For ex:
a = [81, 82, 83]
MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/pythonprogrammingnotesrkreddy-230818092745-f63ba30a/85/PYTHON-PROGRAMMING-NOTES-RKREDDY-pdf-89-320.jpg)
![PYTHON PROGRAMMING
88
b = [81, 82, 83]
print(a == b)
print(a is b)
b = a
print(a == b)
print(a is b)
b[0] = 5
print(a)
Output:
True
False
True
True
[5, 82, 83]
Because the same list has two different names, a and b, we say that it is aliased. Changes
made with one alias affect the other. In the example above, you can see that a and b refer to
the same list after executing the assignment statement b = a.
Cloning Lists:
If we want to modify a list and also keep a copy of the original, we need to be able to make a
copy of the list itself, not just the reference. This process is sometimes called cloning, to
avoid the ambiguity of the word copy.
The easiest way to clone a list is to use the slice operator. Taking any slice of a creates a new
list. In this case the slice happens to consist of the whole list.
Example:
a = [81, 82, 83]
b = a[:] # make a clone using slice
print(a == b)
print(a is b)
b[0] = 5
print(a)
print(b)

Output:
True
False

[5, 82, 83]
Now we are free to make changes to b without worrying about a
List parameters:
Passing a list as an argument actually passes a reference to the list, not a copy of the list.
Since lists are mutable, changes made to the elements referenced by the parameter change
the same list that the argument is referencing.
# for example, the function below takes a list as an argument and multiplies each element in
the list by 2:
def doubleStuff(List):
""" Overwrite each element in aList with double its value. """
for position in range(len(List)):
List[position] = 2 * List[position]
things = [2, 5, 9]
print(things)
doubleStuff(things)
print(things)
Output:
[2, 5, 9]

List comprehension:
List:
List comprehensions provide a concise way to create lists. Common applications are to make
new lists where each element is the result of some operations applied to each member of
another sequence or iterable, or to create a subsequence of those elements that satisfy a
certain condition.
For example, assume we want to create a list of squares, like:
>>> list1=[]
>>> for x in range(10):
list1.append(x**2)
>>> list1
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
(or)
This is also equivalent to
>>> list1=list(map(lambda x:x**2, range(10)))
>>> list1
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
(or)
Which is more concise and redable.
>>> list1=[x**2 for x in range(10)]
>>> list1
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]

![PYTHON PROGRAMMING

Similarily some examples:
>>> x=[m for m in range(8)]
>>> print(x)
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
>>> x=[z**2 for z in range(10) if z>4]
>>> print(x)
[25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
>>> x=[x ** 2 for x in range (1, 11) if x % 2 == 1]
>>> print(x)
[1, 9, 25, 49, 81]
>>> a=5
>>> table = [[a, b, a * b] for b in range(1, 11)]
>>> for i in table:
print(i)
[5, 1, 5]
[5, 2, 10]
[5, 3, 15]
[5, 4, 20]
[5, 5, 25]
[5, 6, 30]
[5, 7, 35]
[5, 8, 40]

Tuples:
A tuple is a collection which is ordered and unchangeable. In Python tuples are written
with round brackets.
Supports all operations for sequences.
Immutable, but member objects may be mutable.
If the contents of a list shouldn’t change, use a tuple to prevent items from

accidently being added, changed, or deleted.
Tuples are more efficient than list due to python’s implementation.
We can construct tuple in many ways:
X=() #no item tuple
X=(1,2,3)
X=tuple(list1)
X=1,2,3,4
Example:
>>> x=(1,2,3)
>>> print(x)
(1, 2, 3)
>>> x
(1, 2, 3)
-----------------------
>>> x=()
>>> x
()
----------------------------
>>> x=[4,5,66,9]
>>> y=tuple(x)
>>> y
(4, 5, 66, 9)
-----------------------------
>>> x=1,2,3,4
>>> x
(1, 2, 3, 4)
Some of the operations of tuple are:
Access tuple items
Change tuple items
Loop through a tuple
Count()
Index()
Length()

![PYTHON PROGRAMMING
93
Access tuple items: Access tuple items by referring to the index number, inside square
brackets
>>> x=('a','b','c','g')
>>> print(x[2])
c
Change tuple items: Once a tuple is created, you cannot change its values. Tuples
are unchangeable.
>>> x=(2,5,7,'4',8)
>>> x[1]=10
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#41>", line 1, in <module>
x[1]=10
TypeError: 'tuple' object does not support item assignment
>>> x
(2, 5, 7, '4', 8) # the value is still the same
Loop through a tuple: We can loop the values of tuple using for loop
>>> x=4,5,6,7,2,'aa'
>>> for i in x:
print(i)

Count (): Returns the number of times a specified value occurs in a tuple
>>> x=(1,2,3,4,5,6,2,10,2,11,12,2)
>>> x.count(2)

Index (): Searches the tuple for a specified value and returns the position of where it
was found

>>> y=x.index(2)
>>> print(y)

Length (): To know the number of items or values present in a tuple, we use len().
>>> x=(1,2,3,4,5,6,2,10,2,11,12,2)
>>> y=len(x)
>>> print(y)

Tuple Assignment
Python has tuple assignment feature which enables you to assign more than one variable at a
time. In here, we have assigned tuple 1 with the college information like college name, year,
etc. and another tuple 2 with the values in it like number (1, 2, 3… 7).
For Example,
Here is the code,
>>> tup2 = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7);
>>> print(tup1[0])
>>> print(tup2[1:4])
(2, 3, 4)
Tuple 2 includes list of numbers in it

Tuple 1 includes list of information of AVNT
>>> tup1 = ('AVNT', 'eng college','2004','MCA', 'it','csit');](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/pythonprogrammingnotesrkreddy-230818092745-f63ba30a/85/PYTHON-PROGRAMMING-NOTES-RKREDDY-pdf-96-320.jpg)
![PYTHON PROGRAMMING
95
We call the value for [0] in tuple and for tuple 2 we call the value between 1 and 4
number (2, 3, 4)
Tuple as return values:
A Tuple is a comma separated sequence of items. It is created with or without (). Tuples are
immutable.
# A Python program to return multiple values from a method using tuple
# This function returns a tuple
def fun():
x = 20
return str, x; # Return tuple, we could also
# write (str, x)
# Driver code to test above method
str, x = fun() # Assign returned tuple
print(str)
print(x)
Output:
20
Functions can return tuples as return values.
def circleInfo(r):
""" Return (circumference, area) of a circle of radius r """
c = 2 * 3.14159 * r
a = 3.14159 * r * r

Tuple comprehension:
Tuple Comprehensions are special: The result of a tuple comprehension is special. You
might expect it to produce a tuple, but what it does is produce a special "generator"
object that we can iterate over.
For example:
>>> x = (i for i in 'abc') #tuple comprehension
>>> x
<generator object <genexpr> at 0x033EEC30>
>>> print(x)
<generator object <genexpr> at 0x033EEC30>
You might expect this to print as ('a', 'b', 'c') but it prints as <generator object <genexpr>
at 0x02AAD710> The result of a tuple comprehension is not a tuple: it is actually a
generator. The only thing that you need to know now about a generator now is that you
can iterate over it, but ONLY ONCE.
So, given the code
>>> x = (i for i in 'abc')
>>> for i in x:
print(i)
a
b
c
Create a list of 2-tuples like (number, square):
>>> z=[(x, x**2) for x in range(6)]
>>> z
[(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 9), (4, 16), (5, 25)]

![PYTHON PROGRAMMING

Set:
Similarly to list comprehensions, set comprehensions are also supported:
>>> a = {x for x in 'abracadabra' if x not in 'abc'}
>>> a
{'r', 'd'}
>>> x={3*x for x in range(10) if x>5}
>>> x
{24, 18, 27, 21}
Dictionaries:
A dictionary is a collection which is unordered, changeable and indexed. In Python
dictionaries are written with curly brackets, and they have keys and values.
Key-value pairs
Unordered
We can construct or create dictionary like:
X={1:’A’,2:’B’,3:’c’}
X=dict([(‘a’,3) (‘b’,4)]
X=dict(‘A’=1,’B’ =2)
Example:
>>> dict1

and key is not found, raises KeyError.
popitem()
Remove and return an arbitary item (key,
value). Raises KeyError if the dictionary is
empty.
setdefault(key[,d])
If key is in the dictionary, return its value. If
not, insert key with a value of d and
return d (defaults to None).
update([other])
Update the dictionary with the key/value pairs
from other, overwriting existing keys.
values() Return a new view of the dictionary's values
Below are some dictionary operations:

To access specific value of a dictionary, we must pass its key,
>>> x=dict1["brand"]
>>> x
---------------------
To access keys and values and items of dictionary:
>>> dict1.keys()
dict_keys(['brand', 'model', 'year'])
>>> dict1.values()
>>> dict1.items()
-----------------------------------------------
>>> for items in dict1.values():
print(items)
college
2004
>>> for items in dict1.keys():
print(items)
brand
model
year
>>> for i in dict1.items():
print(i)
('model', 'college')
('year', 2004)
Some more operations like:

>>> z={x: x**2 for x in (2,4,6)}
>>> z
{2: 4, 4: 16, 6: 36}
>>> dict11 = {x: x*x for x in range(6)}
>>> dict11

Command line arguments:
The command line arguments must be given whenever we want to give the input before the
start of the script, while on the other hand, raw_input() is used to get the input while the
python program / script is running.
The command line arguments in python can be processed by using either ‘sys’ module,
‘argparse’ module and ‘getopt’ module.
‘sys’ module :
Python sys module stores the command line arguments into a list, we can access it
using sys.argv. This is very useful and simple way to read command line arguments as
String.
sys.argv is the list of commandline arguments passed to the Python program. argv represents
all the items that come along via the command line input, it's basically an array holding the
command line arguments of our program
>>> sys.modules.keys() -- this prints so many dict elements in the form of list.
# Python code to demonstrate the use of 'sys' module for command line arguments
import sys
# command line arguments are stored in the form
# of list in sys.argv
argumentList = sys.argv
print(argumentList)
# Print the name of file
print(sys.argv[0])
# Print the first argument after the name of file
#print(sys.argv[1])

print("System version is:")
print(sys.version)
print("Version Information is:")

Output:
System version is:

Version Information is:
sys.version_info(major=3, minor=8, micro=0, releaselevel='final', serial=0)
‘argparse’ module :
Python getopt module is very similar in working as the C getopt() function for parsing
command-line parameters. Python getopt module is useful in parsing command line
arguments where we want user to enter some options too.
>>> parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description='Process some integers.')

‘getopt’ module :
Python argparse module is the preferred way to parse command line arguments. It provides a
lot of option such as positional arguments, default value for arguments, help message,
specifying data type of argument etc
It parses the command line options and parameter list. The signature of this function is
mentioned below:
getopt.getopt(args, shortopts, longopts=[ ])
args are the arguments to be passed.
shortopts is the options this script accepts.
Optional parameter, longopts is the list of String parameters this function accepts
which should be supported. Note that the -- should not be prepended with option
names.
-h --------- print help and usage message
-m --------- accept custom option value
-d --------- run the script in debug mode

Output:
Errors and Exceptions:
Python Errors and Built-in Exceptions: Python (interpreter) raises exceptions when it
encounters errors. When writing a program, we, more often than not, will
encounter errors. Error caused by not following the proper structure (syntax) of the language
is called syntax error or parsing error
ZeroDivisionError:
ZeroDivisionError in Python indicates that the second argument used in a division (or
modulo) operation was zero.
OverflowError:
OverflowError in Python indicates that an arithmetic operation has exceeded the limits of
the current Python runtime. This is typically due to excessively large float values, as integer
values that are too big will opt to raise memory errors instead.
ImportError:
It is raised when you try to import a module which does not exist. This may happen if you
made a typing mistake in the module name or the module doesn't exist in its standard path.
In the example below, a module named "non_existing_module" is being imported but it
doesn't exist, hence an import error exception is raised.
IndexError:
An IndexError exception is raised when you refer a sequence which is out of range. In the
example below, the list abc contains only 3 entries, but the 4th index is being accessed,
which will result an IndexError exception.
TypeError:
When two unrelated type of objects are combined, TypeErrorexception is raised.In example
below, an int and a string is added, which will result in TypeError exception.

IndentationError:
Unexpected indent. As mentioned in the "expected an indentedblock" section, Python not
only insists on indentation, it insists on consistentindentation. You are free to choose the
number of spaces of indentation to use, but you then need to stick with it.
Syntax errors:
These are the most basic type of error. They arise when the Python parser is unable to
understand a line of code. Syntax errors are almost always fatal, i.e. there is almost never a
way to successfully execute a piece of code containing syntax errors.
Run-time error:
A run-time error happens when Python understands what you are saying, but runs into
trouble when following your instructions.
Key Error :
Python raises a KeyError whenever a dict() object is requested (using the
format a = adict[key]) and the key is not in the dictionary.
Value Error:
In Python, a value is the information that is stored within a certain object. To encounter a
ValueError in Python means that is a problem with the content of the object you tried to
assign the value to.
Python has many built-in exceptions which forces your program to output an error when
something in it goes wrong. In Python, users can define such exceptions by creating a new
class. This exception class has to be derived, either directly or indirectly,
from Exception class.
Different types of exceptions:
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException.
ClassNotFoundException.
FileNotFoundException.
IOException.
InterruptedException.
NoSuchFieldException.
NoSuchMethodException

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 1 UNIT – I INTRODUCTION DATA, EXPRESSIONS, STATEMENTS Introduction to Python and installation, data types: Int, float, Boolean, string, and list; variables, expressions, statements, precedence of operators, comments; modules, functions-- - function and its use, flow of execution, parameters and arguments. Introduction to Python and installation: Python is a widely used general-purpose, high level programming language. It was initially designed by Guido van Rossum in 1991 and developed by Python Software Foundation. It was mainly developed for emphasis on code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code. Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate systems more efficiently. There are two major Python versions- Python 2 and Python 3. • On 16 October 2000, Python 2.0 was released with many new features. • On 3rd December 2008, Python 3.0 was released with more testing and includes new features. Beginning with Python programming: 1) Finding an Interpreter: Before we start Python programming, we need to have an interpreter to interpret and run our programs. There are certain online interpreters like https://ide.geeksforgeeks.org/, http://ideone.com/ or http://codepad.org/ that can be used to start Python without installing an interpreter. Windows: There are many interpreters available freely to run Python scripts like IDLE (Integrated Development Environment) which is installed when you install the python software from http://python.org/downloads/ 2) Writing first program: # Script Begins Statement1 MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 4. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 2 Statement2 Statement3 # Script Ends Differences between scripting language and programming language: Why to use Python: The following are the primary factors to use python in day-to-day life: 1. Python is object-oriented Structure supports such concepts as polymorphism, operation overloading and multiple inheritance. 2. Indentation Indentation is one of the greatest feature in python MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 5. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 3 3. It’s free (open source) Downloading python and installing python is free and easy 4. It’s Powerful Dynamic typing Built-in types and tools Library utilities Third party utilities (e.g. Numeric, NumPy, sciPy) Automatic memory management 5. It’s Portable Python runs virtually every major platform used today As long as you have a compaitable python interpreter installed, python programs will run in exactly the same manner, irrespective of platform. 6. It’s easy to use and learn No intermediate compile Python Programs are compiled automatically to an intermediate form called byte code, which the interpreter then reads. This gives python the development speed of an interpreter without the performance loss inherent in purely interpreted languages. Structure and syntax are pretty intuitive and easy to grasp. 7. Interpreted Language Python is processed at runtime by python Interpreter 8. Interactive Programming Language Users can interact with the python interpreter directly for writing the programs 9. Straight forward syntax The formation of python syntax is simple and straight forward which also makes it popular. Installation: There are many interpreters available freely to run Python scripts like IDLE (Integrated Development Environment) which is installed when you install the python software from http://python.org/downloads/ Steps to be followed and remembered: Step 1: Select Version of Python to Install. Step 2: Download Python Executable Installer. Step 3: Run Executable Installer. Step 4: Verify Python Was Installed On Windows. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 6. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 4 Step 5: Verify Pip Was Installed. Step 6: Add Python Path to Environment Variables (Optional) Working with Python Python Code Execution: Python’s traditional runtime execution model: Source code you type is translated to byte code, which is then run by the Python Virtual Machine (PVM). Your code is automatically compiled, but then it is interpreted. Source Byte code Runtime Source code extension is .py Byte code extension is .pyc (Compiled python code) There are two modes for using the Python interpreter: • Interactive Mode • Script Mode m.py m.pyc PVM MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 7. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 5 Running Python in interactive mode: Without passing python script file to the interpreter, directly execute code to Python prompt. Once you’re inside the python interpreter, then you can start. >>> print("hello world") hello world # Relevant output is displayed on subsequent lines without the >>> symbol >>> x=[0,1,2] # Quantities stored in memory are not displayed by default. >>> x #If a quantity is stored in memory, typing its name will display it. [0, 1, 2] >>> 2+3 5 The chevron at the beginning of the 1st line, i.e., the symbol >>> is a prompt the python interpreter uses to indicate that it is ready. If the programmer types 2+6, the interpreter replies 8. Running Python in script mode: MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 8. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 6 Alternatively, programmers can store Python script source code in a file with the .py extension, and use the interpreter to execute the contents of the file. To execute the script by the interpreter, you have to tell the interpreter the name of the file. For example, if you have a script name MyFile.py and you're working on Unix, to run the script you have to type: python MyFile.py Working with the interactive mode is better when Python programmers deal with small pieces of code as you can type and execute them immediately, but when the code is more than 2-4 lines, using the script for coding can help to modify and use the code in future. Example: Data types: The data stored in memory can be of many types. For example, a student roll number is stored as a numeric value and his or her address is stored as alphanumeric characters. Python has various standard data types that are used to define the operations possible on them and the storage method for each of them. Int: Int, or integer, is a whole number, positive or negative, without decimals, of unlimited length. >>> print(24656354687654+2) 24656354687656 >>> print(20) 20 >>> print(0b10) 2 MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 7 >>> print(0B10) 2 >>> print(0X20) 32 >>> 20 20 >>> 0b10 2 >>> a=10 >>> print(a) 10 # To verify the type of any object in Python, use the type() function: >>> type(10) <class 'int'> >>> a=11 >>> print(type(a)) <class 'int'> Float: Float, or "floating point number" is a number, positive or negative, containing one or more decimals. Float can also be scientific numbers with an "e" to indicate the power of 10. >>> y=2.8 >>> y 2.8 >>> y=2.8 >>> print(type(y)) <class 'float'> >>> type(.4) <class 'float'> >>> 2. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 10. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 8 2.0 Example: x = 35e3 y = 12E4 z = -87.7e100 print(type(x)) print(type(y)) print(type(z)) Output: <class 'float'> <class 'float'> <class 'float'> Boolean: Objects of Boolean type may have one of two values, True or False: >>> type(True) <class 'bool'> >>> type(False) <class 'bool'> String: 1. Strings in Python are identified as a contiguous set of characters represented in the quotation marks. Python allows for either pairs of single or double quotes. • 'hello' is the same as "hello". • Strings can be output to screen using the print function. For example: print("hello"). <class 'str'> MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT >>> print("AVNT college") AVNT college >>> type("AVNT college")

If a string is to contain a single quote, delimit it with double quotes and vice versa: Suppressing Special Character: Specifying a backslash () in front of the quote character in a string “escapes” it and causes Python to suppress its usual special meaning. It is then interpreted simply as a literal single quote character: The following is a table of escape sequences which cause Python to suppress the usual special interpretation of a character in a string: >>> print('a ....b') a....b >>> print('a b c') MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT >>> print('AVNT college') AVNT college >>> print("AVNT is an autonomous (') college") AVNT is an autonomous (') college >>> print('AVNT is an autonomous (") college') AVNT is an autonomous (") college >>> print("AVNT is an autonomous (') college") AVNT is an autonomous (') college >>> print('AVNT is an autonomous (") college') AVNT is an autonomous (") college

(Grow and shrink as needed, sequence type, sortable). To use a list, you must declare it first. Do this using square brackets and separate values with commas. We can construct / create list in many ways. Ex: >>> list1=[1,2,3,'A','B',7,8,[10,11]] >>> print(list1) [1, 2, 3, 'A', 'B', 7, 8, [10, 11]] MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT >>> print("AVNT n college") AVNT

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 11 ---------------------- >>> x=list() >>> x [] -------------------------- >>> tuple1=(1,2,3,4) >>> x=list(tuple1) >>> x [1, 2, 3, 4] Variables: Variables are nothing but reserved memory locations to store values. This means that when you create a variable you reserve some space in memory. Based on the data type of a variable, the interpreter allocates memory and decides what can be stored in the reserved memory. Therefore, by assigning different data types to variables, you can store integers, decimals or characters in these variables. Rules for Python variables: • A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character • A variable name cannot start with a number • A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores (A-z, 0-9, and _ ) • Variable names are case-sensitive (age, Age and AGE are three different variables) Assigning Values to Variables: Python variables do not need explicit declaration to reserve memory space. The declaration happens automatically when you assign a value to a variable. The equal sign (=) is used to assign values to variables. The operand to the left of the = operator is the name of the variable and the operand to the right of the = operator is the value stored in the variable. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 14. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 12 For example − a= 100 # An integer assignment b = 1000.0 # A floating point c = "John" # A string print (a) print (b) print (c) This produces the following result − 100 1000.0 John Multiple Assignment: Python allows you to assign a single value to several variables simultaneously. For example : a = b = c = 1 Here, an integer object is created with the value 1, and all three variables are assigned to the same memory location. You can also assign multiple objects to multiple variables. For example − a,b,c = Here, two integer objects with values 1 and 2 are assigned to variables a and b respectively, and one string object with the value "john" is assigned to the variable c. Output Variables: The Python print statement is often used to output variables. Variables do not need to be declared with any particular type and can even change type after they have been set.

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 13 x = 5 # x is of type int # x is now of type str print(x) Output: To combine both text and a variable, Python uses the “+” character: Example x = "awesome" print("Python is " + x) Output Python is awesome You can also use the + character to add a variable to another variable: Example x = "Python is " y = "awesome" z = x + y print(z) Output: Python is awesome Expressions: An expression is a combination of values, variables, and operators. An expression is evaluated using assignment operator. Examples: Y=x + 17 >>> x=10 >>> z=x+20 >>> z 30 MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT x = "AVNT " AVNT

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 14 >>> x=10 >>> y=20 >>> c=x+y >>> c 30 A value all by itself is a simple expression, and so is a variable. >>> y=20 >>> y 20 Python also defines expressions only contain identifiers, literals, and operators. So, Identifiers: Any name that is used to define a class, function, variable module, or object is an identifier. Literals: These are language-independent terms in Python and should exist independently in any programming language. In Python, there are the string literals, byte literals, integer literals, floating point literals, and imaginary literals. Operators: In Python you can implement the following operations using the corresponding tokens. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 16 Some of the python expressions are: Generator expression: Syntax: ( compute(var) for var in iterable ) >>> x = (i for i in 'abc') #tuple comprehension >>> x <generator object <genexpr> at 0x033EEC30> >>> print(x) <generator object <genexpr> at 0x033EEC30> You might expect this to print as ('a', 'b', 'c') but it prints as <generator object <genexpr> at 0x02AAD710> The result of a tuple comprehension is not a tuple: it is actually a generator. The only thing that you need to know now about a generator now is that you can iterate over it, but ONLY ONCE. Conditional expression: Syntax: true_value if Condition else false_value >>> x = "1" if True else "2" >>> x '1' Statements: A statement is an instruction that the Python interpreter can execute. We have normally two basic statements, the assignment statement and the print statement. Some other kinds of statements that are if statements, while statements, and for statements generally called as control flows. Examples: An assignment statement creates new variables and gives them values: >>> x=10 MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 19. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 17 An print statement is something which is an input from the user, to be printed / displayed on to the screen (or ) monitor. Precedence of Operators: Operator precedence affects how an expression is evaluated. For example, x = 7 + 3 * 2; here, x is assigned 13, not 20 because operator * has higher precedence than +, so it first multiplies 3*2 and then adds into 7. Example 1: >>> 3+4*2 11 Multiplication gets evaluated before the addition operation >>> (10+10)*2 40 Parentheses () overriding the precedence of the arithmetic operators Example 2: a = 20 b = 10 c = 15 d = 5 e = 0 e = (a + b) * c / d #( 30 * 15 ) / 5 print("Value of (a + b) * c / d is ", e) e = ((a + b) * c) / d # (30 * 15 ) / 5 print("Value of ((a + b) * c) / d is ", e) e = (a + b) * (c / d); # (30) * (15/5) MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT >>> college="AVNT" >>> print("AVNT colege") AVNT college

- 21. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 19 Modules: Modules: Python module can be defined as a python program file which contains a python code including python functions, class, or variables. In other words, we can say that our python code file saved with the extension (.py) is treated as the module. We may have a runnable code inside the python module. A module in Python provides us the flexibility to organize the code in a logical way. To use the functionality of one module into another, we must have to import the specific module. Syntax: import <module-name> Every module has its own functions, those can be accessed with . (dot) Note: In python we have help () Enter the name of any module, keyword, or topic to get help on writing Python programs and using Python modules. To quit this help utility and return to the interpreter, just type "quit".

- 22. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 20 Functions: Functions and its use: Function is a group of related statements that perform a specific task. Functions help break our program into smaller and modular chunks. As our program grows larger and larger, functions make it more organized and manageable. It avoids repetition and makes code reusable. Basically, we can divide functions into the following two types: 1. Built-in functions - Functions that are built into Python. Ex: abs(),all().ascii(),bool()………so on…. integer = -20 print('Absolute value of -20 is:', abs(integer)) Output: Absolute value of -20 is: 20 2. User-defined functions - Functions defined by the users themselves. def add_numbers(x,y): sum = x + y return sum print("The sum is", add_numbers(5, 20)) Output: The sum is 25 Flow of Execution: 1. The order in which statements are executed is called the flow of execution 2. Execution always begins at the first statement of the program. 3. Statements are executed one at a time, in order, from top to bottom. 4. Function definitions do not alter the flow of execution of the program, but remember that statements inside the function are not executed until the function is called. 5. Function calls are like a bypass in the flow of execution. Instead of going to the next statement, the flow jumps to the first line of the called function, executes all the statements there, and then comes back to pick up where it left off. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 23. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 21 Note: When you read a program, don’t read from top to bottom. Instead, follow the flow of execution. This means that you will read the def statements as you are scanning from top to bottom, but you should skip the statements of the function definition until you reach a point where that function is called. Example: #example for flow of execution print("welcome") for x in range(3): print(x) print("Good morning college") Output: welcome 0 1 2 Good morning college The flow/order of execution is: 2,3,4,3,4,3,4,5 ------------------------------------------ MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/pyyy/flowof.py

A function name to uniquely identify it. Function naming follows the same rules of writing identifiers in Python. 3. Parameters (arguments) through which we pass values to a function. They are optional. 4. A colon (:) to mark the end of function header. 5. Optional documentation string (docstring) to describe what the function does. 6. One or more valid python statements that make up the function body. Statements must have same indentation level (usually 4 spaces). 7. An optional return statement to return a value from the function. Example: def hf(): hello world hf() In the above example we are just trying to execute the program by calling the function. So it will not display any error and no output on to the screen but gets executed. To get the statements of function need to be use print(). #calling function in python: def hf(): print("hello world") hf() Output: hello world ------------------------------- MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

Python allows functions to be called using keyword arguments. When we call functions in this way, the order (position) of the arguments can be changed. (Or) If you have some functions with many parameters and you want to specify only some of them, then you can give values for such parameters by naming them - this is called keyword arguments - we use the name (keyword) instead of the position (which we have been using all along) to specify the arguments to the function. There are two advantages - one, using the function is easier since we do not need to worry about the order of the arguments. Two, we can give values to only those parameters which we want, provided that the other parameters have default argument values. def func(a, b=5, c=10): print 'a is', a, 'and b is', b, 'and c is', c MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT >>> wish("AVNT") # only one argument print(hello("AVNT","college")) hiAVNT,college

In the first usage, func(3, 7), the parameter a gets the value 3, the parameter b gets the value 5 and c gets the default value of 10. In the second usage func(25, c=24), the variable a gets the value of 25 due to the position of the argument. Then, the parameter c gets the value of 24 due to naming i.e. keyword arguments. The variable b gets the default value of 5. In the third usage func(c=50, a=100), we use keyword arguments completely to specify the values. Notice, that we are specifying value for parameter c before that for a even though a is defined before c in the function definition. For example: if you define the function like below def func(b=5, c=10,a): # shows error : non-default argument follows default argument ------------------------------------------------------- def print_name(name1, name2): """ This function prints the name """ print (name1 + " and " + name2 + " are friends") #calling the function print_name(name2 = 'A',name1 = 'B') MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

But once we have a default argument, all the arguments to its right must also have default values. This means to say, non-default arguments cannot follow default arguments.

- 51. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 49 Break and continue: In Python, break and continue statements can alter the flow of a normal loop. Sometimes we wish to terminate the current iteration or even the whole loop without checking test expression. The break and continue statements are used in these cases. Break: The break statement terminates the loop containing it and control of the program flows to the statement immediately after the body of the loop. If break statement is inside a nested loop (loop inside another loop), break will terminate the innermost loop.

Functions, Arrays: Fruitful functions: We write functions that return values, which we will call fruitful functions. We have seen the return statement before, but in a fruitful function the return statement includes a return value. This statement means: "Return immediately from this function and use the following expression as a return value." (or) Any function that returns a value is called Fruitful function. A Function that does not return a value is called a void function Return values: The Keyword return is used to return back the value to the called function. # returns the area of a circle with the given radius: def area(radius): temp = 3.14 * radius**2 return temp print(area(4)) (or) def area(radius): return 3.14 * radius**2 print(area(2)) Sometimes it is useful to have multiple return statements, one in each branch of a conditional: def absolute_value(x): if x < 0: MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 58. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 56 return -x else: return x Since these return statements are in an alternative conditional, only one will be executed. As soon as a return statement executes, the function terminates without executing any subsequent statements. Code that appears after a return statement, or any other place the flow of execution can never reach, is called dead code. In a fruitful function, it is a good idea to ensure that every possible path through the program hits a return statement. For example: def absolute_value(x): if x < 0: return -x if x > 0: return x This function is incorrect because if x happens to be 0, both conditions is true, and the function ends without hitting a return statement. If the flow of execution gets to the end of a function, the return value is None, which is not the absolute value of 0. >>> print absolute_value(0) None By the way, Python provides a built-in function called abs that computes absolute values. # Write a Python function that takes two lists and returns True if they have at least one common member. def common_data(list1, list2): for x in list1: for y in list2: if x == y: result = True return result print(common_data([1,2,3,4,5], [1,2,3,4,5])) print(common_data([1,2,3,4,5], [1,7,8,9,510])) print(common_data([1,2,3,4,5], [6,7,8,9,10])) Output: MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:UsersAVNTAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython38-32pyyyfu1.py

Python Recursive Function We know that in Python, a function can call other functions. It is even possible for the function to call itself. These type of construct are termed as recursive functions. Factorial of a number is the product of all the integers from 1 to that number. For example, the factorial of 6 (denoted as 6!) is 1*2*3*4*5*6 = 720. Following is an example of recursive function to find the factorial of an integer. # Write a program to factorial using recursion def fact(x): if x==0: result = 1 else : result = x * fact(x-1) return result print("zero factorial",fact(0)) print("five factorial",fact(5)) Output: zero factorial 1 five factorial 120 ---------------------- def calc_factorial(x): """This is a recursive function to find the factorial of an integer""" if x == 1: return 1 else: return (x * calc_factorial(x-1)) MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/pyyy/rec.py

Since Python has no provision for arrays, we simply use strings. This is how we declare a string. We can use a pair of single or double quotes. Every string object is of the type ‘str’. >>> type("name") <class 'str'> >>> name=str() >>> name '' >>> a >>> a[2] 'c' >>> fruit = 'banana' >>> letter = fruit[1] The second statement selects character number 1 from fruit and assigns it to letter. The expression in brackets is called an index. The index indicates which character in the sequence we want String slices: A segment of a string is called a slice. Selecting a slice is similar to selecting a character: Subsets of strings can be taken using the slice operator ([ ] and [:]) with indexes starting at 0 in the beginning of the string and working their way from -1 at the end. Slice out substrings, sub lists, sub Tuples using index. Syntax:[Start: stop: steps] Slicing will start from index and will go up to stop in step of steps.

For example: >>> greeting[0]='n' TypeError: 'str' object does not support item assignment The reason for the error is that strings are immutable, which means we can’t change an existing string. The best we can do is creating a new string that is a variation on the original: >>> greeting = 'Hello, world!' >>> new_greeting = 'J' + greeting[1:] >>> new_greeting 'Jello, world!'

Array length is 10 which means it can store 10 elements. Each element can be accessed via its index. For example, we can fetch an element at index 6 as 70 Basic Operations Following are the basic operations supported by an array. Traverse − print all the array elements one by one. Insertion − Adds an element at the given index. Deletion − Deletes an element at the given index. Search − Searches an element using the given index or by the value. Update − Updates an element at the given index. Array is created in Python by importing array module to the python program. Then the array is declared as shown below. from array import * arrayName=array(typecode, [initializers]) Typecode are the codes that are used to define the type of value the array will hold.

An alias is a second name for a piece of data, often easier (and more useful) than making a copy. 2. If the data is immutable, aliases don’t matter because the data can’t change. 3. But if data can change, aliases can result in lot of hard – to – find bugs. 4. Aliasing happens whenever one variable’s value is assigned to another variable.

Changes made with one alias affect the other. In the example above, you can see that a and b refer to the same list after executing the assignment statement b = a. Cloning Lists: If we want to modify a list and also keep a copy of the original, we need to be able to make a copy of the list itself, not just the reference. This process is sometimes called cloning, to avoid the ambiguity of the word copy. The easiest way to clone a list is to use the slice operator. Taking any slice of a creates a new list. In this case the slice happens to consist of the whole list. Example: a = [81, 82, 83] b = a[:] # make a clone using slice print(a == b) print(a is b) b[0] = 5 print(a) print(b) MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/pyyy/alia.py

- 92. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 90 List comprehension: List: List comprehensions provide a concise way to create lists. Common applications are to make new lists where each element is the result of some operations applied to each member of another sequence or iterable, or to create a subsequence of those elements that satisfy a certain condition. For example, assume we want to create a list of squares, like: >>> list1=[] >>> for x in range(10): list1.append(x**2) >>> list1 [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81] (or) This is also equivalent to >>> list1=list(map(lambda x:x**2, range(10))) >>> list1 [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81] (or) Which is more concise and redable. >>> list1=[x**2 for x in range(10)] >>> list1 [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81] MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

The only thing that you need to know now about a generator now is that you can iterate over it, but ONLY ONCE. So, given the code >>> x = (i for i in 'abc') >>> for i in x: print(i) a b c Create a list of 2-tuples like (number, square): >>> z=[(x, x**2) for x in range(6)] >>> z [(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 9), (4, 16), (5, 25)] MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

Files, Exceptions, Modules, Packages: Files and exception: A file is some information or data which stays in the computer storage devices. Python gives you easy ways to manipulate these files. Generally files divide in two categories, text file and binary file. Text files are simple text where as the binary files contain binary data which is only readable by computer. Text files: In this type of file, Each line of text is terminated with a special character called EOL (End of Line), which is the new line character (‘n’) in python by default. Binary files: In this type of file, there is no terminator for a line and the data is stored after converting it into machine understandable binary language. An exception is an event, which occurs during the execution of a program that disrupts the normal flow of the program's instructions. In general, when a Python script encounters a situation that it cannot cope with, it raises an exception. An exception is a Python object that represents an error. Text files: We can create the text files by using the syntax: Variable name=open (“file.txt”, file mode) For ex: f= open ("hello.txt","w+") We declared the variable f to open a file named hello.txt. Open takes 2 arguments, the file that we want to open and a string that represents the kinds of permission or operation we want to do on the file Here we used "w" letter in our argument, which indicates write and the plus sign that means it will create a file if it does not exist in library MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

It Opens file for reading. 'w' This Mode Opens file for writing. If file does not exist, it creates a new file. If file exists it truncates the file. 'x' Creates a new file. If file already exists, the operation fails. 'a' Open file in append mode. If file does not exist, it creates a new file. 't' This is the default mode. It opens in text mode.

- 111. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 109 Command line arguments: The command line arguments must be given whenever we want to give the input before the start of the script, while on the other hand, raw_input() is used to get the input while the python program / script is running. The command line arguments in python can be processed by using either ‘sys’ module, ‘argparse’ module and ‘getopt’ module. ‘sys’ module : Python sys module stores the command line arguments into a list, we can access it using sys.argv. This is very useful and simple way to read command line arguments as String. sys.argv is the list of commandline arguments passed to the Python program. argv represents all the items that come along via the command line input, it's basically an array holding the command line arguments of our program >>> sys.modules.keys() -- this prints so many dict elements in the form of list. # Python code to demonstrate the use of 'sys' module for command line arguments import sys # command line arguments are stored in the form # of list in sys.argv argumentList = sys.argv print(argumentList) # Print the name of file print(sys.argv[0]) # Print the first argument after the name of file #print(sys.argv[1]) Output: MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/cmndlinarg.py ['C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/cmndlinarg.py'] C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/cmndlinarg.py

- 114. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 112 Output: Errors and Exceptions: Python Errors and Built-in Exceptions: Python (interpreter) raises exceptions when it encounters errors. When writing a program, we, more often than not, will encounter errors. Error caused by not following the proper structure (syntax) of the language is called syntax error or parsing error ZeroDivisionError: ZeroDivisionError in Python indicates that the second argument used in a division (or modulo) operation was zero. OverflowError: OverflowError in Python indicates that an arithmetic operation has exceeded the limits of the current Python runtime. This is typically due to excessively large float values, as integer values that are too big will opt to raise memory errors instead. ImportError: It is raised when you try to import a module which does not exist. This may happen if you made a typing mistake in the module name or the module doesn't exist in its standard path. In the example below, a module named "non_existing_module" is being imported but it doesn't exist, hence an import error exception is raised. IndexError: An IndexError exception is raised when you refer a sequence which is out of range. In the example below, the list abc contains only 3 entries, but the 4th index is being accessed, which will result an IndexError exception. TypeError: When two unrelated type of objects are combined, TypeErrorexception is raised.In example below, an int and a string is added, which will result in TypeError exception.

- 115. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 113 IndentationError: Unexpected indent. As mentioned in the "expected an indentedblock" section, Python not only insists on indentation, it insists on consistentindentation. You are free to choose the number of spaces of indentation to use, but you then need to stick with it. Syntax errors: These are the most basic type of error. They arise when the Python parser is unable to understand a line of code. Syntax errors are almost always fatal, i.e. there is almost never a way to successfully execute a piece of code containing syntax errors. Run-time error: A run-time error happens when Python understands what you are saying, but runs into trouble when following your instructions. Key Error : Python raises a KeyError whenever a dict() object is requested (using the format a = adict[key]) and the key is not in the dictionary. Value Error: In Python, a value is the information that is stored within a certain object. To encounter a ValueError in Python means that is a problem with the content of the object you tried to assign the value to. Python has many built-in exceptions which forces your program to output an error when something in it goes wrong. In Python, users can define such exceptions by creating a new class. This exception class has to be derived, either directly or indirectly, from Exception class. Different types of exceptions: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException. ClassNotFoundException. FileNotFoundException. IOException. InterruptedException. NoSuchFieldException. NoSuchMethodException MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 116. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 114 Handling Exceptions: The cause of an exception is often external to the program itself. For example, an incorrect input, a malfunctioning IO device etc. Because the program abruptly terminates on encountering an exception, it may cause damage to system resources, such as files. Hence, the exceptions should be properly handled so that an abrupt termination of the program is prevented. Python uses try and except keywords to handle exceptions. Both keywords are followed by indented blocks. Syntax: try : #statements in try block except : #executed when error in try block Typically we see, most of the times Syntactical errors (wrong spelling, colon ( : ) missing ….), At developer level and compile level it gives errors. Logical errors (2+2=4, instead if we get output as 3 i.e., wrong output …..,), As a developer we test the application, during that time logical error may obtained. Run time error (In this case, if the user doesn’t know to give input, 5/6 is ok but if the user say 6 and 0 i.e.,6/0 (shows error a number cannot be divided by zero)) This is not easy compared to the above two errors because it is not done by the system, it is (mistake) done by the user. The things we need to observe are: 1. You should be able to understand the mistakes; the error might be done by user, DB connection or server. 2. Whenever there is an error execution should not stop. Ex: Banking Transaction 3. The aim is execution should not stop even though an error occurs. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT

- 124. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 122 • We use modules to break down large programs into small manageable and organized files. Furthermore, modules provide reusability of code. • We can define our most used functions in a module and import it, instead of copying their definitions into different programs. • Modular programming refers to the process of breaking a large, unwieldy programming task into separate, smaller, more manageable subtasks or modules. Advantages : • Simplicity: Rather than focusing on the entire problem at hand, a module typically focuses on one relatively small portion of the problem. If you’re working on a single module, you’ll have a smaller problem domain to wrap your head around. This makes development easier and less error-prone. • Maintainability: Modules are typically designed so that they enforce logical boundaries between different problem domains. If modules are written in a way that minimizes interdependency, there is decreased likelihood that modifications to a single module will have an impact on other parts of the program. This makes it more viable for a team of many programmers to work collaboratively on a large application. • Reusability: Functionality defined in a single module can be easily reused (through an appropriately defined interface) by other parts of the application. This eliminates the need to recreate duplicate code. • Scoping: Modules typically define a separate namespace, which helps avoid collisions between identifiers in different areas of a program. • Functions, modules and packages are all constructs in Python that promote code modularization. A file containing Python code, for e.g.: example.py, is called a module and its module name would be example. >>> def add(a,b): result=a+b return result """This program adds two numbers and return the result""“ MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 125. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 123 Here, we have defined a function add() inside a module named example. The function takes in two numbers and returns their sum. How to import the module is: • We can import the definitions inside a module to another module or the Interactive interpreter in Python. • We use the import keyword to do this. To import our previously defined module example we type the following in the Python prompt. • Using the module name we can access the function using dot (.) operation. For Eg: >>> import example >>> example.add(5,5) 10 • Python has a ton of standard modules available. Standard modules can be imported the same way as we import our user-defined modules.

Here is an example. >>> from math import pi >>> print("The value of pi is", pi) O/P: The value of pi is 3.141592653589793 • We imported only the attribute pi from the module. • In such case we don't use the dot operator. We could have imported multiple attributes as follows. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT C:/Users/AVNT/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python38-32/pyyy/m.py =

PYTHON PROGRAMMING 134 >>> from math import pi, e >>> pi 3.141592653589793 >>> e 2.718281828459045 Import all names: • We can import all names(definitions) from a module using the following construct. >>>from math import * >>>print("The value of pi is", pi) • We imported all the definitions from the math module. This makes all names except those beginnig with an underscore, visible in our scope. Explore packages: • We don't usually store all of our files in our computer in the same location. We use a well-organized hierarchy of directories for easier access. • Similar files are kept in the same directory, for example, we may keep all the songs in the "music" directory. Analogous to this, Python has packages for directories and modules for files. • As our application program grows larger in size with a lot of modules, we place similar modules in one package and different modules in different packages. This makes a project (program) easy to manage and conceptually clear. • Similar, as a directory can contain sub-directories and files, a Python package can have sub-packages and modules. • A directory must contain a file named __init__.py in order for Python to consider it as a package. This file can be left empty but we generally place the initialization code for that package in this file. • Here is an example. Suppose we are developing a game, one possible organization of packages and modules could be as shown in the figure below. MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 137. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 135 • If a file named __init__.py is present in a package directory, it is invoked when the package or a module in the package is imported. This can be used for execution of package initialization code, such as initialization of package-level data. • For example __init__.py • A module in the package can access the global by importing it in turn • We can import modules from packages using the dot (.) operator. • For example, if want to import the start module in the above example, it is done as follows. • import Game.Level.start • Now if this module contains a function named select_difficulty(), we must use the full name to reference it. • Game.Level.start.select_difficulty(2) MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT
- 138. PYTHON PROGRAMMING 136 • If this construct seems lengthy, we can import the module without the package prefix as follows. • from Game.Level import start • We can now call the function simply as follows. • start.select_difficulty(2) • Yet another way of importing just the required function (or class or variable) form a module within a package would be as follows. • from Game.Level.start import select_difficulty • Now we can directly call this function. • select_difficulty(2) Examples: #Write a python program to create a package (II YEAR),sub- def read(): print("Department") def write(): print("Student") Output: >>> student.read() Department >>> student.write() Student >>> read MCA I YEAR/II SEM AVNT package(MCA),modules(student) and create read and write function to module >>> from IIYEAR.MCA import student >>> from IIYEAR.MCA.student import read
