                        Aim:- Introduction to Python Programming. 
             
                         Theory:- Python is a general-purpose interpreted, interactive, object-oriented, and high-level 
                         programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum during 1985- 1990. Like Perl, 
                         Python source code is also available under the GNU General Public License (GPL). This tutorial 
                         gives enough understanding on Python programming language. 
             
                        Prerequisites 
                         You should have a basic understanding of Computer Programming terminologies. A basic 
                         understanding of any of the programming languages is a plus. 
                         Python is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language. Python is 
                         designed to be highly readable. It uses English keywords frequently where as other languages 
                         use punctuation, and it has fewer syntactical constructions than other languages. 
                               •    Python is Interpreted − Python is processed at runtime by the interpreter. You do not 
                                    need to compile your program before executing it. This is similar to PERL and PHP. 
                               •    Python is Interactive − You can actually sit at a Python prompt and interact with the 
                                    interpreter directly to write your programs. 
                               •    Python is Object-Oriented − Python supports  Object-Oriented style or technique  of 
                                    programming that encapsulates code within objects. 
                               •    Python is a Beginner's Language − Python is a great language for the beginner-level 
                                    programmers and supports the development of a wide range of applications from simple 
                                    text processing to WWW browsers to games. 
                        History of Python 
                         Python was developed by Guido van Rossum in the late eighties and early nineties at the National 
                         Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science in the Netherlands. 
                         Python is  derived from many other languages,  including ABC, Modula-3, C, C++, Algol-68, 
                         SmallTalk, and Unix shell and other scripting languages. 
                         Python is copyrighted. Like Perl, Python source code is now available under the GNU General 
                         Public License (GPL). 
                         Python is now maintained by a core development team at the institute, although Guido van 
                         Rossum still holds a vital role in directing its progress.
