About Python

Python is a multi function programming language

- this means it can be used to virtually every program. So, in this blog we will try to know Python and how to apply the language to modern day life. But first of all we need to understand the language.

There are many tutorials available in the web. You must visit those tutorials and here is my version of the tutorial. You can learn from here too, if you bear with me.

You can also learn python from sites like -

• docs.python.org
• tutorialspoint
• Codecademy
Or you can use my own site -
• Pythonbeginner

Install Python:

Install Python by going to the site - www.python.org and download the python 2.7  or 3. Here I am concentrating on Python 2.7. So it is advisable to download the later one.
For windows you have to install Python actually, Python is already installed in Linux or Mac. Just extract the downloaded file and double click setup. exe.

How to check python is  installed properly:
For Linux just open the terminal and type Python. Of out shows a reply message with version on it and a '>>' sign, then you are OK.
For windows, open command prompt and type Python.. That's it. If there is an error like command not found, then set the part variable properly or see if you are in proper directory.

After installation of the python from the instruction above you are ready to rock in the python world. You need to download some modules for required project when needed. You can get all the module in github so no worries in this respect.
Why python is Multi-function Programming Language?
Python can be used in many aspects of our every programming needs- from core programming options where we program different hardware to sophisticated web development , we can use python. Python is in its core is made to do tasks without thinking much about syntax of the programming, and concentrate on the semantics of the program. We will start from our very next blog - let's start by saying 'Hello World'.
