  6. Some Remarks • Python 3.x is not compatible to Python 2.x • We use Python 3 • Install Anaconda (Python 3 Package) https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/Free version is enoughIt includes more than 100 useful modulesIt supports Mac, Linux, and Windows

  7. How to print 'Hello, world!' C++ (You need not remember this! )#include <iostream> int main() { std::cout << 'Hello, world!' << std::endl; return 0; } Python– Just use function print() print ('Hello, world!')

  8. Indent = Beauty Indent = The way for grouping the sentences in Python A bad C++ programmer may write... if (x > 1) { y=x+1; z=x+y; } else { y=0; z=0; } In Python, anyone must write like this: if x > 1: y=x+1 # This is a comment part z=x+y # Here is the first block else: y=z=0 # Now the second block If the indentation was wrong, it causes an error！

  9. Why Python Again! • Number of keywords to be remembered is much less than other language(about 30! Java has more than 120!) • Indentation helps to write a easy-to-read program • Interpreter (You need not to compile) • Need not to declare variables • Need not to manage memory (automatic garbage collection) • Works on Windows, Mac, Linux (and also iphone and ipad!) • Object oriented • Free!

  10. Data Type(1): Number • Number • int : integer number in unlimited range • bool : True or False • float: floating point number, i.e., 5.4or 1.0 • complex: complex number, i.e., z= 0 + 1j (real part and imaginary part) z.real is 0 z.imag is 1 z * z is -1+0j because j*j is minus 1

  11. Data Type(2): Sequence • Sequence Type • string : (immutable) sequence of unicodes, i.e., 'Mickey'，'Minny'，'Mickey's Birthday', and ''' We can write multiple lines using triple quotes like this''' • list: (mutable) sequence of arbitrary objects generated by brackets [ ], i.e., [1,2,3,'a'], [1,'b', [2,3,'c'], 6 ], [ ] • tuple： (immutable) sequence of arbitrary objects generated by parentheses( ), i.e., (1,2,3,'a'), ( (1,2), (2,'f','g'))

  12. 'Immutable' = cannot modify String is immutable! >>> a='Mickey' >>> a[0]='D' # a[0] is the first string Traceback (most recent call last): File '<pyshell#7>', line 1, in <module> a[0]='D' TypeError: 'str' object does not support item assignment Tuple are immutable, while list is mutable!

  13. Data Type(3) • Set Type • set ： (mutable) set generated by braces { }, i.e., {1,2,3}, {'a', 'b', 'Mickey'} • frozenset: (immutable) set • Map Type • dictionary： hash function that maps keys to values composed generated by {key: value, ... }, i.e., { 'Mary': 126, 'Jane': 156}, { 'Hello': 'Konnnichiwa', 1: 'One', 2: 'Two'}

  14. Function type( ) and type conversion • To check the type of objects, use function type(): • type(124) • type(3.1415) • type(3+5j) • To convert the type • int() : convert to integer number • float( ) : convert to floating number • complex() : convert to complex number • int(3.14) • float(3) • complex(1)

  15. Bool and String: type conversion • Check the type of objects • type(True) • type('Hello') • Convert the type • bool() : 0is False，otherwise True • str( ） : return string • bool(3.14) • bool(0) • bool('0') • str(3+5) • str(True)

  16. String (1) 'abc' or 'abc' or ''' ..... ...... ''' Single (double) quote inside the double (single) quotes is allows. ' My 'ideal' Place ' or 'My 'favorite' movie' Triple quotes（ ''' ） allows multiple lines

  17. String (2) • String is a sequence type index from 0For x= 'abcd', x[1] returns 'b' a b c d x[0] x[1] x[2] x[3]

  18. Slicing (1) • slicingof sequence type [i:j] means i≦k<j [ :j] means 0≦k<j [i: ] means i≦k For x= 'abcd', x[1:3] returns 'bc'x[1:]returns 'bcd' a b c d x[0] x[1] x[2] x[3]

  19. Slicing (2) • len() returns the size of the object len(x[i:j]) is equal to j-i • The negative indices mean the index from the last.The last character is x[-1]. The slicing is the strings between the number i and j. 0 1 2 3 4 a b c d -4 -3 -2 -1 x[0] x[1] x[2] x[3]

  20. StringMethods (1) • Method (function associated with object using '.' notation) Example: s='abABBaac' s.count(x)：returns how many times x occurs in string s s.count('a') -> 3 s.index(x)：returns the first index x occurs in string s s.index('A') -> 2 s.upper()：converts all the characters in string s to uppercase s.upper() -> 'ABABBAAC' s.islower()： returns True iff all the characters in sting s are lowercased s.islower() -> False

  21. StringMethods (2) • Example: s='abABBaac' s.replace(old, new): returns a string by substituting string <old> to <new> in string s s.replace('AB','Mickey') -> 'abMickeyBaac' s.split(d)： returns a list of strings using d as the separator s.split('a')| -> [' ', 'bABB', ' ', 'c'] s.join(L): returns a string that concatenates all the string in list L using s as the separator ':'.join(['a','b','c'])| -> |'a:b:c'| s.format(args): formats the string s using argument args 'My friends are {0}, {1} and {0}'.format('Bob','Pedro','Bob) -> 'My friends are Bob, Pedro and Bob'

  22. List • list： sequence of arbitrary objects • Use bracket [] and separate the objects by comma (,). i.e., [1,2,3,'a']，['a',['b',5,5],'c'] • mutable: can modify the items For L=[1,1,5,4] , L[1]=100=> L=[1,100,5,4] • Modify the elements by slicing For L=[1,1,5,4] , L[1:3]=[100,200,300] => L=[1,100,200,300,4]

  23. ListMethods • Method (function associated with object using '.' notation) Example: L=[1,1,5,4] L.count(x)：returns how many times x occurs in list L L.count(1) -> 2 L.index(x)：returns the first index x occurs in L L.index(5) -> 2 L.reverse()： reverses the order of items in L L.reverse() -> L=[4,5,1,1] L.sort()： sorts the items in L L.sort()-> L=[1,1,4,5]

  24. Tuple • tuple：sequence type of arbitrary objects • Just separate the objects by comma (,) like a,bor use parentheses. i.e., (1,2,3,'a') • Parentheses are necessarily for nested tuples ((1,5),('a','b',6)) • immutable： cannot modify • Usage: a,b = b,a

  25. Dictionary • dictionary： map type composed of keys and values • Use braces{ } and input 'key : value' pairs separated by comma, i.e., D={ 'Mary': 126, 'Jane': 156, 'Sara': 170} • Same dictionary can be generate using dict() functionD=dict(Mary=126, Jane=156, Sara=170) • D['Sara'] returns 170 • Keys must be immutable • Dictionary is mutable： D['Sara']=130 => { 'Mary': 126, 'Jane': 156, 'Sara': 130}

  26. Set • set and frozenset: set type composed of arbitrary objects • Use braces S = {1,2,'Candy'} • Use function set (or frozenset) S=set( [1,2,'Candy']) • set methods such as union, intersection, difference，symmetric difference • set is mutable • fronzenset is immutable

  27. Operation(1) • Priority of operations • Parentheses () • Exponential ** • Multiply*or Division / or Integer Division // or Mod (Division Remainder) % • Add+ or Subtract - • Comparison (returns Boolean) <=less than or equal to >= greater than or eqial to == equal !=not equal

  28. Operator(2) • 'in' and 'not in' • True if an element is in the object (string, list, tuple, set, dictionary) • True if an element is not in the object • Boolean operators and or • (1<4) or (5<4) • ('a' in 'banana') and ('c' in [1,5,'c'])

  29. If /elsestatesment if <True or False Expression 1>: Expression 1 is True elif if <True or False Expression 2>: Expression 1 is False and Expression 2 is True else: Expression 1 is False and Expression 2 is False Example: if x<0: print ( 'Negative Number' ) else: print ( 'Non-negative' )

  30. for-loop for <element> in <iterative object such as list or dict>: Loop Block range(i,j): generator function that returns integers k such that i ≦k < j Example： print 0,1,2,3,4 for x in range(5): print(x)

  31. Comprehension (1) List comprehension:generate a list using 'for' within [ ] Example: A list that contains tuples [ (x, x**2, 2**x) for x in range(5)] >>>[(0, 0, 1), (1, 1, 2), (2, 4, 4), (3, 9, 8), (4, 16, 16)]

  32. Comprehension(2) Generator comprehension: 'for' loop within ( ) Example using 'sum' function sum(x for x in range(11)) >>> 55

  33. while-loop while <True or False Expression>: Loop Block Example：　print2*x while x is positive x=10 while x>0: print (2*x) x =x-1

  34. breakand continue • Keywords to escape from a loop • break： finish the loop • continue： jump to the next iteration Example：　 print2*x while x is positive and x is odd x=10 while True: x =x-1 if x%2==0: continue # do not print when x is even print (2*x) if x<=0: break # finish the loop when x reaches 0

  35. for-else When for(or while)loop is not finished by 'break', execute 'else' block after the loop Example: check whether y is a prime number y=11 for x in range(2,y): if y % x==0: # if y is divisible by x, y is a composite number break else: print ('Prime Number')

  36. Function • To define a fuction ... def <name of function>(arguments ）: function block return <return value> # optional Example： Concatenate given two stringsand repeat three times. def concatenate3(a,b): c=a+b return 3*c concatenate3('a','b')returns 'ababab'

  37. Recursion(1) • Recursion = function that calls itself Example： factorialn! =n×(n-1) ×・・・×2×1that can be defined recursively :n!=n × (n-1)! and the initial condition 0!=1 def factorial(n): if n==0: return 1 else: return n*factorial(n-1)

  38. Recursion(2) • Fibonacci number defined by：F(0)=1, F(1)=1, F(n)=F(n-1)+F(n-2)def fibonacci (n):if n == 0 or n == 1: return 1 else: return fibonacci(n-1) + fibonacci(n-2)

  39. Module • Module is a library to be imported; that is just a program named <filename.py> written in Python Method 1： import module import <filename> Example： import 'math' module and use square root function 'sqrt' import math print math.sqrt(2) Method 2： import function (and/or class) in modulefrom <filename>import <function/class name> or wildcard (*) from math import * print sqrt(2)

  40. (Pseudo) Random Number Generator Module • import random or from random import * random()： returns a uniform random number in [0.0, 1.0) Example： random() -> 0.48777947886 randint(i,j)： returns a uniform random integer in i ≦k <=j Example： randint(-5,1) -> -3 shuffle(L)： mix list L randomly． Example： L=[1,2,3,4], shuffle(L) -> L=[4, 1, 3, 2] choice(L)： Choose one item from list Lrandomly Example： L=[1,2,3,4], choice(L) -> 3
