INTRODUCTION

TO PYTHON
History, Functions And Modules
 High-level, interpreted programming language.

 Created by Guido van Rossum.

 First released in 1991.

 Emphasizes code readability with simple


syntax.

 Widely used in web development, data science,


automation, and more.

WHAT IS PYTHON?
 Developed as a successor to the ABC
programming language.
 Name “Python” inspired by Monty Python’s
Flying Circus.
 Open-sourced from the beginning.
 Major versions: Python 2 (2000), Python 3
(2008).
 Python 3 is the current and actively developed
version.

HISTORY OF PYTHON
 Easy to read and write.

 Large standard library.

 Massive community support.

 Cross-platform compatibility.

WHY LEARN PYTHON?


 A function is a block of reusable code.
 Defined using the ‘def’ keyword.
 Can accept parameters and return values.
 Improves modularity and reusability.

FUNCTIONS IN PYTHON
Functions Built-in Functions:
print(), len(), type()

User-defined
Functions: Created
by the programmer
Lambda Functions:
Anonymous
functions using
lambda keyword

TYPES OF FUNCTIONS
 A module is a file containing Python definitions
and statements.
 Helps organize large programs into small files.
 Can be imported into other scripts.

MODULES IN PYTHON
Commonly Used Modules :
 math: Mathematical functions
 Datetime: Date and time handling
 random: Generate random numbers
 OS: Interact with the operating system
Creating a Custom Module :
 Create a .py file with
functions.
 Import it in another
script.
 Python is beginner-friendly and powerful.
 Functions help organize and reuse code.
 Modules make code modular and manageable.
 Knowing how to use both is key for efficient
programming.
