This Python tutorial covers everything you need to know to start
programming in Python, from downloading the latest version of
Python to learning about variables and data types. It also
provides an exercise for the reader to practice their skills.
Iphone or iPad you need to install a couple of other things first
so you go to the App Store and search for Pycharm. Then in the
App Store click on the install button. Now. Once Pycharm is
installed, you can open it up by clicking on this icon. Here in
your downloads folder. You should also have a.py file. So let's
open that up now. The first thing you 're going to do is create a
new project so let's do that by clicking on this green plus sign
here in your project explorer window and type in Python. This is
the name of your project. Now let's choose a location for your
project so we're going to choose a folder on our computer called
projects and then click on the create Button Now let's change
some settings inside of Pycharm. So first thing you 're going to.
To want to do is change the language of your project to Python,
So inside of pycharm. Go to File > Settings > Project Settings
and in the Languages section change Python to the language of
your project. Now next thing you 're going to want to do is set
up your project folder so inside of pycharm go to File > Settings
> Project Structure and in the Project Folder section click on
the Browse button and then select the folder where you want your
project files to live so now Your project is set up and ready to
go all right let's start writing some code. We're going to start
with the simplest code possible and that's a hello world program.
In Python. A Hello world program is simply a program that prints
out hello world so let's open up our.py file and enter this code
here. Here import sys [UNK] world!") all right so we've imported
the Sys module and then we've printed out [UNK] world!" now Let's
save our file by clicking on this green button here in your
editor window and call it Hello.py now let's run our program by
clicking on this green run button here inside of pycharm and
you'll see that our program has printed out [UNK] world!" all
right that's our first simple code block in Python now Let's take
a look at some more code blocks in Python. First thing we'll want
to do is create a variable, so let's open up our hello.py file
again and enter this code def [UNK] [UNK] world!") all right so
we've defined a function called say hello() we're going to print
out [UNK] world!" now let's save our file once again say we want
to declare a variable called price. We would type price and then
after we type the name of the variable. We would put a colon and
then the value of that variable. So in this case, the value of
this variable will be 12.99. So we can use this variable anywhere
inside our Python code now let's say we want to print the value
