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.
