Python Learning – Day 1: Introduction, print() and Variables

📌 Introduction

Python is one of the most popular and beginner-friendly programming languages in the world.
In this learning journey, I am documenting my daily Python classes so that anyone can learn Python step by step along with me.

In Day 1, I learned the very basics of Python, including how to print messages and how to store data using variables.

📚 Topics Covered in Day 1

In this lesson, I learned the following topics:

• What is Python
• How Python prints output using print()
• What are variables
• How to store and display data

🧠 What is Python?

Python is a high-level programming language that is easy to read, write, and understand.
It is widely used in:

• Web development
• Data analysis
• Automation
• Artificial Intelligence
• Cybersecurity

Python is perfect for beginners because its syntax is very simple and close to English.

🖨️ Printing Output in Python (print())

To display any message on the screen, Python uses the print() function.

Example:

print("Hello, Python")
print("My name is Hiranmoy")

Output:

Hello, Python
My name is Hiranmoy

The print() function tells Python what to show as output.

📦 Variables in Python

A variable is like a container that stores data.
We can give a name to a value and use it later.

Example:

name = "Hiranmoy"
age = 22
city = "Haldia"

print(name)
print(age)
print(city)

Output:

Hiranmoy
22
Haldia

Here:

• name, age, and city are variables
• = is used to assign values
• Python stores the data in memory

---

🔗 Using Text with Variables

We can also combine text and variables using print().

Example:

name = "Hiranmoy"
age = 22

print("My name is", name)
print("I am", age, "years old")

Output:

My name is Hiranmoy
I am 22 years old

🌍 Real-Life Example

Variables are used everywhere in real life:

• Contact name and number
• Login username
• User profile details

Python variables work in the same way by storing information.

✅ What I Learned Today

• How Python displays output
• How to create and use variables
• How to write simple Python programs
• Basic structure of Python code

This lesson helped me understand the foundation of Python programming.

🔜 Next Lesson (Day 2)

In Day 2, I will learn about:

• Python Operators
• Mathematical calculations
• Real-life examples like bills and discounts
