Introduction to Python Programming

Introduction
Python is a popular programming language known for its simplicity and versatility.
In this chapter, we will go over the basics of Python programming, including data
types, variables, and functions.

Data Types and Variables
Python has several built-in data types, including:

- Integers (e.g. 3, -15)
- Floating point numbers (e.g. 3.14, -0.5)
- Strings (e.g. "hello", 'world')
- Booleans (e.g. True, False)

You can assign values to variables in Python like this:

x = 3
y = 3.14
name = "Alice"
is_student = True

Functions
In Python, you can define your own functions using the def keyword. Here's an
example:

def greet(name):
print("Hello, " + name)

greet("Bob") # prints "Hello, Bob"

You can also define functions that return values. Here's an example:

def add(x, y):
return x + y

result = add(3, 4) # result is now 7

Control Flow
Python has several control flow statements, including if, for, and while. Here's an
example of each:

# if statement
if result > 5:
print("Result is greater than 5")

# for loop
for i in range(5):
print(i)

# while loop
i = 0
while i < 5:
print(i)
i += 1
