Python Basic Syntax.

This is the first tutorial of Python which will include examples and help the learner to understand easily.

Example 1:

print("Hello, World!")

Solution: Hello, World!

Python Indentations

Where in other programming languages the indentation in code is for readability only, in Python the indentation is very important.

Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code.

Example 2:

if 7 > 2:
  print("Seven is greater than two!")

Solution: Seven is greater than two!

Note: In the above example we have given indentation after colon(:) which indicate that the print statement come under the if block.

Python Variables

In Python variables are created to assign memory to a value:

Example 3:

x = 5

y = "Hello, World!"

In above example x and y are variable to which 5 and hello world is assigned.

Comments in Python

Python has commenting capability for the purpose of code documentation.

Comments start with a #, and Python will treat the rest of the line as a comment:

Example 4:

#This is a comment.

print("Start Python")

Comments do not execute it is ignored by python.

Multi Line Comments

Python does not really have a syntax for multi line comments.

To add a multi-line comment you could insert a # for each line: 

Or, not quite as intended, use a multi-line string.

Example 5:

"""

This is a comment
written in 
more than just one line

"""

This will create a multi-line comment for you.
