About Python Fundamentals Course

Python programming language was developed by Guido van Rossum and was first released in 1991. It is a high-level, interpreted language and is considered one of the most popular and widely used programming languages in the world today. Its widespread popularity is due to its ease of learning and use, as well as its support for a wide range of applications, from web development and mobile applications to data analysis and artificial intelligence. Thanks to its clear and straightforward syntax, Python has become the preferred choice for many programmers and developers worldwide.

Van Rossum was a big fan of the British radio show "Monty Python's Flying Circus," from which the name Python was derived. Monty Python references occasionally appear in Python's code and culture.

In the "Python Basics" course, offered for free by the Maaref platform – Mansoura University, we will explore the fundamentals of the Python language and its various uses in fields such as web development, data analysis, artificial intelligence, and more. We will learn how to write programs using Python and review practical examples to clarify the basic concepts.

Python has several features that make it a favorite among programmers and developers, including:

-Readability and Simplicity: Python is known for its clear and simple syntax, making it easy to read and understand, even for beginners.
-Versatility: Python can be used for a wide range of applications, from web and desktop application development to data analysis, artificial intelligence, games, and networking applications.
-Interpreted Language: Python is interpreted, meaning the code is executed line by line, which facilitates experimentation and debugging.
-Open Source: Python is open-source, which means it is free to use and distribute, with a large community contributing to its continuous development and improvement.
-Community Support: There is a vast and active community of Python programmers and developers, providing a wide range of libraries and frameworks to simplify various tasks.
-Extensibility: Python can be extended using other programming languages like C or C++ to enhance performance or access low-level functionalities.
-Portability: Python can run on different operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, and macOS, without needing to modify the source code.

Required Environment and Software Tools:

To run Python, you need an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) or a simple text editor, such as:

PyCharm: A specialized IDE for Python that provides many helpful tools.
Visual Studio Code: A text editor supporting Python with many useful extensions.
Jupyter Notebook: An ideal tool for writing interactive code, especially for data analysis and scientific research.
Additionally, running Python requires installing the Python Interpreter, which can be downloaded from the official website: python.org.
