Python New Series:

In this series we cover Python Setup/Installation on Winodws / Linux Machines. 

After that basic building blocks of python language. 

So having scripting/coding, let play with Python :P

Python is a programming language that lets you work more quickly and integrate your systems more effectively. You can learn to use Python and see almost immediate gains in productivity and lower maintenance costs.

Python Set Types:

A set type is a collection data type that supports the membership operator (in), the size function (len()), and is iterable. In addition, set types at least provide a set.isdisjoint() method, and support for comparisons, as well as support for the bitwise operators (which in the context of sets are used for union, intersection, etc.).

Python provides two built-in set types: the mutable set type and the immutable frozenset.

When iterated, set types provide their items in an arbitrary order.

Simple example python script:

name = raw_input(" What is your pet name? ")

print "Hello, " + name + "!"

If you run this (remember to save it first), you should see the following prompt

in the inter-preter window: What is your pet name?

Enter your pet name (for example, Bunny) and press Enter.

You should get something like this:

What is your pet name? // You enter your pet name: Bunny //

Hello, Bunny!

Python Collection Data Types:

A sequence type is one that supports the membership operator (in), the size function (len()), slices ([]), and is iterable.

Python provides five built-in sequence types: bytearray, bytes, list, str, and tuple.

Some other sequence types are provided in the standard library, most notably, collections.namedtuple.
