What to Focus On
- Machine language uses 0s and 1s and is low level language.
- Source code is a program written in a high-level language.
- Python is interpreted, case-sensitive, portable, and free/open-source.
- Interpreter is also called Python shell.
- Interactive mode executes one statement at a time instantly.
- Script mode allows writing and saving many statements in a .py file.
- Keywords are reserved words.
- Identifiers name variables, functions, or other entities.
- An identifier cannot start with a digit.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Any name can be used as an identifier, including names that start with a digit or use special symbols.
Python automatically treats numeric-looking text as numbers in all situations.
The print function always joins values the same way, whether + or comma is used.
