- Material Review About Python
I will tell you about the material that has been explained by Mr. Hilman Jihadi,S.Kom. ,MMSI. The material learned about programming using python through w3school.
You can open w3school via the following link https://www.w3schools.com/python/.
Python is a computer programming language often used to build websites and software, automate tasks, and analyze data. It was created by Guido van Rossum, and released in 1991.
It is used for:
- web development (server-side),
- software development,
- mathematics,
- system scripting.
Python writing is simpler than other programming languages. For example, to display "Hello World, you just have to type
print("Hello, World!")
× Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
× Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
× Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and modify files.
× Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics.
× Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready software development.
The most recent major version of Python is Python 3, which we shall be using in this tutorial. However, Python 2, although not being updated with anything other than security updates, is still quite popular.
Before continuing the practice of python programming, you need to know whether your computer already has python or not. If you don't have Python on your computer, you can install it following the following tutorial https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_getstarted.asp
If it is installed, you can continue learning Python programming.
The way to run a python file is like this on the command line:
C:\Users\Your Name>python helloworld.py
Where "helloworld.py" is the name of your python file.
You can write hello world as exemplified earlier Then you can save it and run the program.
The output should read:
Hello, World!
Whenever you are done in the python command line, you can simply type the following to quit the python command line interface:
exit()
That's what was learned from the past material. Hopefully you can understand what I said. If it's not clear you can open my lecturer's youtube video at https://youtu.be/66CBwYcnIf0?si=pywrfo656i82Ee2I
Thank you
