Python Overview

Python Overview
Python is a general purpose object-oriented programming language with high-level programming capabilities. It has become famous because of its clear and easily understandable syntax, portability and easy to learn.

Some Facts About Python

  • Python was developed in the late eighties i.e. late 1980’s by Guido van Rossum at the National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science in the Netherlands as a successor of ABC language capable of exception handling and interfacing.
  • Python is derived from programming languages such as: ABC, Modula 3, small talk, algol-68.
  • PHP page is a file with .py extension that contains could be the combination of HTML Tags and Python scripts.
  • In December 1989 the creator developed the 1st python interpreter as a hobby and then in 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.
  • Python is an open source scripting language.
  • Python is free to download and use.
  • Python is one of the official language at Google.

Python Why? Characteristics and Features of Python

  • Interpreted Language: Python is processed at runtime by Python Interpreter.
  • Object Oriented Language: It supports object-oriented features and techniques of programming.
  • Interactive Programming Language: Users can interact with the python interpreter directly for writing programs.
  • Easy language: Python is easy to learn language especially for beginners.
  • Straightforward Syntax: The formation of python syntax is simple and straightforward which also makes it popular.
  • Easy to read: Python source-code is clearly defined and visible to the eyes.
  • Portable: Python codes can be run on a wide variety of hardware platforms having the same interface.
  • Extendable: Users can add low level-modules to Python interpreter.
  • Scalable: Python provides an improved structure for supporting large programs then shell-scripts.

What You Can Do with Python

Python is used to create web and desktop applications, and some of the most popular web applications like Instagram, YouTube, Spotify all has been developed in Python, and you can also develop next big thing by using Python.

C++ Tokens

Declaration & Assignments C++ Tokens As mentioned earlier, C++ is the superset of  C  and so most constructs of C are legal in C++ with their meaning and usage unchanged. So tokens, expressions and data types are similar like that of C. It also is preferred to understand the concepts of C before learning C++. However there are some exceptions and additions in C++ which you will not get in C. In this chapter you will learn about what are tokens, and the different types of tokens, expressions, and basic data types. What are Tokens Each individual word and punctuation is referred to as a token in C++. Tokens are the smallest building block or smallest unit of a C++ program. These following tokens are available in C++: Identifiers Keywords Constants Operators Strings Identifiers : Identifiers are names given to different entries such as variables, structures and functions. Also identifier names should have to be unique because these entities are used in the execution of the program. Ke
