Introduction to Python Programming Language
Python is currently the most popular programming language and also
the fastest growing one. The concept of Python was introduced in 1989
and it is being used widely in machine learning, data science, and
artificial intelligence.
Main Areas of Python
Machine learning
Data science
Artificial intelligence
Python is used by big companies like Facebook and Twitter for
managing and processing large amounts of data.
The language is easy to learn and has a wide range of applications. It
supports multiple paradigms including object-oriented, procedural, and
functional programming.
Python has been used in almost every area of programming, including
by big companies like Google and YouTube.
The language is open source and has a huge community with many
inbuilt packages, modules, and functions that can be used in programs
without having to write them from scratch.
Python has many discussion forums where users can post queries and
get answers. Frameworks like Django and Flask are available for web
development.
Career Opportunities in Python
Python offers numerous career opportunities with an average salary
ranging from 8 to 12 per nm. It's no wonder why this language is so
popular. In the upcoming video, we will first explore the history of
Python. As the saying goes, "know your enemy before going to battle."
We will be using the latest version of Python 3.x, as Python 2.x is now
,obsolete and no longer supported since January 2020. So, let's focus on
the latest version and explore the many career opportunities that
Python has to offer.
Features and Application Areas of Python
If you are already familiar with Python and its features and application
areas, please feel free to take notes. In the next video, we will dive
deeper into the topic.

History of Python Programming Language
In this video, we will discuss the history of Python programming
language. In the previous video, we talked about the features,
popularity, and application areas of Python. In this video, we will cover
the following:
Who created Python?
Why was Python created?
What is the motto behind designing Python?
The history and evolution of Python
Python was created by Guido van Rossum, a Dutch programmer, during
his Christmas holidays in 1989. At that time, he was working on a
project called Ameba, a distributed operating system at CWI Centrum
Viscandi and Informatica Center. He had prior experience in designing a
programming language from his work on the ABC programming
language in the early 1980s.
Guido van Rossum designed Python as a successor to the ABC
programming language, taking some features from it and fixing its
flaws. He also added new features to the language. The name Python
came from his love for a British TV series called Monty Python's Flying
Circus. The first version of Python, 0.9.0, was released in 1991, with the
official version, 1.0, released in the same year.
Python was an open-source project from the start, with a primary
discussion forum formed in 1994. The language has evolved over the
years, with the latest version being 3.10, released in 2021. The support
for version 2.x was ended on January 1, 2020, and the future releases
include version 3.11 in 2022 and version 3.12 in 2023.
, P_03 Download and Install Python (3.10.6) and
Pycharm | Python Tutorials for Beginners
In the previous video of learning Python programming language, we
discussed the history of the Python language. In this video, we will
install Python and an IDE for writing programs in Python. We will also
write a simple program to print "Hello, World!" which is usually the first
program you write when learning a programming language. Python is
an interpreted language, so we will install the base interpreter for
Python.
Installing Python
To download Python, search for "download Python" and open the
website python.org. In the download section, download Python 3.10.6,
which is the latest version for Windows. After downloading, click on the
downloaded file and choose "Install Now." You can also customize the
installation by choosing your location and features. Ensure that you
check the box "Add Python 3.10 to path" to add it to the command
prompt. After installation, open the command prompt and type "python
--version" to check if it was successfully installed. We also installed pip,
which is used to install Python packages.
Installing PyCharm
PyCharm is an IDE used for building Python applications. You can
download it from jetbrains.com. Choose the community version, which
is free. After downloading, click on the downloaded file and follow the
installation steps. Open PyCharm and create a new project. Choose your
location and interpreter, which is the Python interpreter installed
previously.
Getting Started with Python
In this tutorial, we will learn how to install and use Python on our
computer. To get started, we need to download Python from the official
website and install it on our computer.
