First Steps

Hi everyone

 
Mi first blog post will be about a tutorial that I made for the class about hot to install python3 with Cygwin. That time I made in class so I couldn't speak. Also I wanted to start with this because these are mis first steps in this world, maybe it's just installing a program, but every journey begins with a single step.

"It's dangerous to go alone, take python with you".

Also, for you to get to know a little bit of me, I'll try to attach a song in every post, so you can know what i was listening while I was blogging, just wait until I get custom to blogger.

And to finish, the topics I'll see in python are the next ones:

• Use of comments
• Python conventions (Zen of Python but others for other languages)
• Basic types and their use
• Basic output (print)
• Basic user input (text based)
• Calling functions
• Creating functions
• Importing and using modules/libraries
• Creating and using your own modules/libraries
• Use of the conditional “if”
• Use of “else” with a conditional (and elif for Python)
• Nesting of conditional statements
• Use of loops with “while”
• Use of loops with “for”
• Use of recursion for repetitive algorithms
• When to use what type of repetition in a program
• Creation and use of Lists/Tuples (Python)
• Creation and use of strings
• Validated user input (ensure correct/expected data entry)
• Reading and writing of text files
• Creation and use of ranges in Python
• Creation and use of dictionaries in Python

 This are some mastery topics that my teacher ask me to cover, so in my next video I will start with them.

Enjoy the first video.
