What to Focus On
- Python is open-source, high level, and interpreter-based.
- Python was created by Guido van Rossum in 1991.
- There are two execution modes: interactive mode and script mode.
- Keywords are reserved words.
- Python is case sensitive.
- An identifier cannot start with a digit.
- Data type tells what kind of value a variable holds.
- Number includes int, float, and complex.
- bool is a subtype of integer.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Python keywords can be written in any case, so And, OR, or If are also valid keywords.
Any name can be used as an identifier, even names starting with a digit or containing special symbols like # or $.
A variable is the same as a value, so a variable does not need to be assigned before use.
