What is Python Variables and how to use it?

In Python, a variable is a symbolic name that references or points to a value. Variables are fundamental in programming because they allow you to store, modify, and retrieve data during the execution of a program. ### 1. **What is a Variable?**    - A variable is a name given to a data value. In Python, you don't need to declare a variable before using it. You simply assign a value to a variable, and Python automatically determines the data type based on the value.    - **Naming Conventions**:      - Must start with a letter (a-z, A-Z) or an underscore (_).      - Cannot start with a number.      - Can contain letters, numbers, and underscores.      - Python variables are case-sensitive (`myVar` and `myvar` are different variables).    **Example**:    ```python    x = 10    name = "Alice"    is_active = True    ```    - Here, `x`, `name`, and `is_active` are variables that store different types of values. ### 2. **Variable Assignment**    -

What is basic Python code?

Basic Python code involves fundamental concepts such as variables, data types, control structures, functions, and basic input/output operations. Below are some examples of basic Python code to demonstrate these concepts.

### 1. **Hello, World!**

The simplest Python program that prints text to the console.

```python

print("Hello, World!")

```

### 2. **Variables and Data Types**

Python supports various data types, such as integers, floats, strings, and booleans.

```python

# Integer

age = 25

# Float

height = 5.8

# String

name = "Alice"

# Boolean

is_student = True

```

### 3. **Basic Arithmetic Operations**

You can perform arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

```python

a = 10

b = 5

sum_result = a + b        # 15

difference = a - b        # 5

product = a * b           # 50

quotient = a / b          # 2.0

```

### 4. **Control Structures**

Python uses control structures like `if`, `for`, and `while` loops to control the flow of the program.

#### If-Else Statement

```python

number = 10

if number > 0:

    print("Positive number")

elif number == 0:

    print("Zero")

else:

    print("Negative number")

```

#### For Loop

```python

for i in range(5):  # 0 to 4

    print(i)

```

#### While Loop

```python

count = 0

while count < 5:

    print(count)

    count += 1

```

### 5. **Functions**

Functions allow you to encapsulate code into reusable blocks.

```python

def greet(name):

    return f"Hello, {name}!"

message = greet("Alice")

print(message)

```

### 6. **Basic Input/Output**

You can take input from the user and display output.

```python

# Taking input

user_name = input("Enter your name: ")

# Displaying output

print(f"Hello, {user_name}!")

```

### 7. **Lists**

Lists are used to store multiple items in a single variable.

```python

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]

# Accessing elements

print(fruits[0])  # apple

# Adding an element

fruits.append("orange")

# Looping through the list

for fruit in fruits:

    print(fruit)

```

These examples cover the basics of Python programming. They give you a solid foundation to build more complex applications as you continue to learn.
