Python- 5 reasons to learn python

1. Dynamically Typed

• You don’t have to declare a type when declaring a variable.
• It skips headaches of type casting

          JAVA:-       int x = 1;

                          x = (int) x/2;                            x now equals 0

                                                                        x can never be 0.5

          Python:-   x = 1

                        x = x/2                                       x now equal 0.5

2. Simple Syntax

• Some programming languages will kill you with parentheses, brackets, braces, commas and colons.
• With python you spend less time debugging syntax and more time programming

3. One liners

• Elegant 1 line solutions to what takes a whole block of code in other languages.
• Example- exchange value of x and y

         JAVA:-      int temp = x;                        Python:-    x,y = y,x 

                        x = y;

                        y = temp;

4. English-like Commands

• Python code is so much more readable than c, c++ and java code.
• Because python is design to be like english-like language
• Example- printing a name

         JAVA:-      string name = "Bob";                 Python:-   name = "bob"

                        system.out.println(name);                          print(name)

5. Intuitive data structures

• Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries.
• Powerful, yet simple and intuitive to use.
• Flexible (mixed data types).
