Interactive Mode and Script
Mode
Python has two basic modes. They are
1. Interactive Mode
2. Script Mode
Interactive Mode
Interactive mode is a command line shell. The user can
execute commands and get the output immediately. The
commands are executed via the python shell, which
comes with python installation.
To access the python shell, open the terminal of your
operating system and then type “python”. Press the enter
key and the Python shell appear.

Why Colab?
As a beginner to the Python development, you must have
faced the daunting task of installing and configuring Python
before your run your first “Hello World” code.
The configuration increases if you want to perform
specialized tasks such as machine learning, computation
analysis, data exploration. Again, the question arises of
whether your system has a supported GPU to train machine
learning models. Your model training might be too slow, if
your training device doesnot have a GPU.
Introduction to Google colab
Why Colab?
The steps for writing your Python code includes:
• Meet a proper hardware requirements.
• Download Python executable file.
• You might want to create the virtual environment to run different
version of the python. (Optional)
• Choosing the IDE to run your program. From Visual Studio,
Pycharm, Atom, Esclipse and many more
• Download conda if you want to develop for Data science.
• Then, install the libraries and framework required for your
project. For instance, NumPy, Panda, Matplotlib, etc.
• Furthermore, you might also want to install the jupyter notebook.
Introduction to Google colab
Why Colab?
Wouldn‟t it be better if you could skip all the above steps and
start writing a program? Moreover, what about if you get free
GPU and TPU for your computation heavy task. Does it
sound too good to be true? That‟s what a Google Colab is.
Google Colab is a Jupyter notebook environment that runs
completely on a cloud. It handles all the setup and
configuration required for your program. So that you can start
writing your first program.
Colaboratory, or “Colab” for short, is a product from Google
Research. Colaballows anybody to write and execute
arbitrary python code through the browser, and is especially

Integers
In Python, integers are zero, positive or negative whole numbers without a
fractional part and having unlimited precision, e.g. 0, 100, -10. The
followings are valid integer literals in Python.
Example:
#integer variables
x=0
print(x)
x = 100
print(x)
x = -10
print(x)
x = 1234567890
print(x)
x = 5000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
print(x)
Basic data types
Integers
Integers can be binary, octal, and hexadecimal values.
Example:
b = 0b11011000 # binary
print(b)
216
o = 0o12 # octal
print(o)
10
h = 0x12 # hexadecimal
print(h)
18
Basic data types
Float
In Python, floating point numbers (float) are positive and negative real
numbers with a fractional part denoted by the decimal symbol . or the
scientific notation E or e, e.g. 1234.56, 3.142, -1.55, 0.23.
Example:
f = 1.2
print(f) #output: 1.2
print(type(f)) #output: <class 'float'>
f=123_42.222_013 #output: 12342.222013
print(f)
f=2e400
print(f) #output: inf
As you can see, a floating point number can be separated by the underscore
_. The maximum size of a float is depend on your system. The float beyond
its maximum size referred as inf, Inf, INFINITY, or infinity. For example, a
float number 2e400 will be considered as infinity for most systems.
Basic data types
Float
Use the float() function to convert string, int to float.
Example:
f=float('5.5')
print(f) #output: 5.5
f=float('5')
print(f) #output: 5.0
Basic data types
Boolean
The Python Boolean type is one of Python's built-in data types. It's used to
represent the truth value of an expression. For example, the expression 1 <=
2 is True , while the expression 0 == 1 is False . Understanding how Python
Boolean values behave is important to programming well in Python.
Example:
>>> type(False)
<class 'bool'>
>>> type(True)
<class 'bool‟>
a=1
b=2
c=a<b
print (c)
Output
True
Working with String
Functions
String is collection of characters. All string methods return
new values. They do not change the original string. Strings in
python are surrounded by either single quotation marks, or
double quotation marks.
>>> print(“Hello”)
„Hello‟
>>> print(„Hello‟)
„Hello‟
>>> dept=“Engineering”
„Engineering‟
String Methods
Looping through a String
We can loop through the characters in a string, with a for
loop.
Example
for x in “Engineering”:
print(x)
Output
E
N
G
I
N
E
E
R
I
N
String Methods
String Length
To get the length of the string, use the len() method.
>>> dept=“Engineering”
>>> print(len(dept))
11
Check String ( in keyword )
To check particular pattern or character is present in the
string, we can use in keyword.
>>> student=“I am doing Bio-Technology”
>>> print(“Bio” in student)
True
String Methods
Negative Indexing
>>> print(student[-1:])
y
>>> print(student[-2:])
gy
>>> print(student[-10:])
Technology
String Methods
Modify String
Upper Case
>>> name=“Bana Singh”
>>> print(name.upper())
BANA SINGH
Lower Case
>>>print(name.lower())
bana singh
Remove Whitspace
>>> name=“ Bana Singh “
>>>print(name.strip()) // Removes whitespace from the
beginning or end
String Methods
Modify String
Replace String
>>> name=“Bana Singh”
>>> name
'Bana Singh'
>>> print(name.replace("Bana","Param Vir Chakra"))
Param Vir Chakra Singh

Error Handling in Python
try:
lets you test a
block of code for
errors
except:
finally:
Execute the code
regardless of the
result of the try-
and except
blocks
Error Handling in Python
Example:
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Jose/Desktop/demo2.py", line 1, in
<module>
if age>=18:
NameError: name 'age' is not defined
Error Handling in Python
Example:
try:
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
except:
print("Variable age is not initialized")
Output:
Variable age is not initialized
Error Handling in Python
Example:
An error generated inside
age=24
the try block will be handled
try:
by except block.
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
If there is no try block, the
except:
program execution will be
print("Variable age is not
stopped suddenly, and error
initialized")
message displayed.
Output:
Eligible to Vote
Error Handling in Python
Example: (Division by Zero Error)
import sys
a=20
try:
a/0
except ArithmeticError as e:
print (e)
#print (sys.exc_type)
print ('This is an example of catching ArithmeticError’)
Output:
division by zero
This is an example of catching ArithmeticError
Error Handling in Python
Example:
try:
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
except:
print("Variable age is not initialized")
Output:
Variable age is not initialized
Error Handling in Python
Example:
try:
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
except:
print("Variable age is not initialized")
Output:
Variable age is not initialized
Error Handling in Python
Example:
try:
if age>=18:
print("Eligible to Vote")
except:
print("Variable age is not initialized")
Output:
Variable age is not initialized
Error Handling in Python
Example: (ImportError)
import sys
try:
from exception import myexception
except Exception as e:
print (e)
Output:
No module named 'exception'
Error Handling in Python
Many Exceptions
We can create as many exception blocks as we like, for
example, if we want to run a special piece of code in
response to a specific error:
try:
print(x)
except NameError:
print("Variable x is not defined")
except:
print("Something else went wrong")
Output:
Variable x is not defined
Error Handling in Python
Else
You can use the else keyword to define a block of code to be
executed if no errors were raised:
try:
print("Hello")
except:
print("Something went wrong")
else:
print("Nothing went wrong")
Output:
Hello
Nothing went wrong
Error Handling in Python
finally
The finally block, if specified, will be executed regardless if
the try block raises an error or not.
try:
print(x)
except:
print("Something went wrong")
finally:
print("The 'try except' is finished")
Output:
Something went wrong
The 'try except' is finished
Error Handling in Python
Raise an exception
The developer can throw an exception in python if some
condition is satisfied.
x = -1
if x < 0:
raise Exception("Sorry, no numbers below zero")
Output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Jose/Desktop/demo1.py", line 3, in
<module>
raise Exception("Sorry, no numbers below zero")
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
• Equals: a == b
• Not Equals: a != b
• Less than: a < b
• Less than or equal to: a <= b
• Greater than: a > b
• Greater than or equal to: a >= b
Python if statement syntax
if test_expression:
statements(s)
Here, the program evaluates the test expression and will
execute statement(s) only if the test expression is True.
If the test expression is False, the statement(s) is not
executed.
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
Example:
Num=3
If Num>0:
print(“Number positive”)
The elif is short for else if. It allows us to check for multiple
expressions. If the condition for if is False, it checks the
condition of the next elif block and so on. If all the conditions
are False, the body of else is executed. Only one block
among the several if...elif...else blocks is executed according
to the condition.
Example:
num = 3.4
if num > 0:
print("Positive number")
elif num == 0:
print("Zero")
else:
print("Negative number")
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
Example:
n = 10
sum = 0
i=1
while i <= n:
sum = sum + i
i = i+1 # update counter
print("The sum is", sum)
Output:
The sum is 55
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
Here, val is the variable that takes the value of the item inside
the sequence on each iteration. Loop continues until we reach
the last item in the sequence. The body of for loop is
separated from the rest of the code using indentation.
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
Example: (Palindrome)
rev=0
n=int(input("Enter any no"))
temp=n
while n>0:
r=n%10
rev=rev*10+r
n=int(n/10)
# print(n)
if rev==temp:
print("Palindrome")
else:
print("No")
Python Conditional and Looping Statements
Lists
List is used to store multiple elements separated by comma
and enclosed within the square brackets[ ]. List elements are
ordered (it means that elements are added at the end of list),
changeable (we can add or remove elements from the list),
and allow duplicate values. List elements are indexed , the
first index is 0.

Tuple
Tuple is also a collection data type used to store more
elements in a single variable name. It is unchangeable
(Immutable). In tuples, elements are enclosed in round
brackets.
Create a Tuple
>>> t1=(1,2,3) //tuple name is t1
>>> t1
(1, 2, 3)
>>> t2=("a","b","c") // //tuple name is t2
>>> t2

Change Tuple Values
Once tuple is created, we cannot change its values. Because
tuples are immutable. But there is another way, Convert
tuple into a list, change the list, and convert the list back
into a tuple.

1D array, 2D array, ndarray, vector, matrix
What are the attributes of an array?
An array is usually a fixed-size container of items of the same type and size.
The number of dimensions and items in an array is defined by its shape. The
shape of an array is a tuple of non-negative integers that specify the sizes of
each dimension.
How to create a basic Array
np.array()
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3])
Introduction to NumPy
Examples
1D array, 2D array, ndarray, vector, matrix
np.zeros()
import numpy as np
a=np.zeros(3)
print(a)
Output:
[0. 0. 0.]
Adding, Removing, and Sorting Elements
import numpy as np
a=np.array([1,3,4,2,7,8,12,10])
print("Before Sorting an Elements")
print(a)
print("After Sorting an Elements")
print(np.sort(a))
Introduction to NumPy
Examples
Concatenate
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4,5])
b = np.array([5, 6, 7, 8])
res=np.concatenate((a, b))
print(res)
Output:
[1 2 3 4 5 5 6 7 8]
To know the shape and size of the array
import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
print(a.ndim)
Output:
2

Concatenate
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4,5])
b = np.array([5, 6, 7, 8])
res=np.concatenate((a, b))
print(res)
Output:
[1 2 3 4 5 5 6 7 8]
To know the shape and size of the array
import numpy as np
a = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])
print(a.ndim) //dimension of the array
Print(a.size)
print.(a.shape)
Output:
2
4
(2,2)
Introduction to NumPy
Examples
Convert a 1D array into a 2D array
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])
print(a.shape)
a2 = a[np.newaxis, :]
print(a2.shape)
Output:
(6,)
(1, 6)
Indexing & Slicing
Output
import numpy as np
[1 2 3 4 5 6
data = np.array([1, 2, 3,4,5,6,7,8]) 7 8]
print(data[0:]) [1 2]
print(data[0:2]) [6 7 8]
print(data[-3:])
Introduction to NumPy
Examples
Create an array from existing data
import numpy as np
a = np.array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10])
arr1 = a[3:8]
print(arr1)
Output:
[4 5 6 7 8]
Creating Matrices
import numpy as np
data = np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]])
print(data)
Output
[[1 2]
[3 4]
[5 6]]
