What is Python?

 

Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum, and released in 1991.
It is used for:
  • web development (server-side),
  • software development,
  • mathematics,
  • system scripting.

What can Python do?

  • Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
  • Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
  • Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and modify files.
  • Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics.
  • Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready software development.

Why Python?

  • Python works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc).
  • Python has a simple syntax similar to the English language.
  • Python has syntax that allows developers to write programs with fewer lines than some other programming languages.
  • Python runs on an interpreter system, meaning that code can be executed as soon as it is written. This means that prototyping can be very quick.
  • Python can be treated in a procedural way, an object-orientated way or a functional way.

Good to know

  • The most recent major version of Python is Python 3, which we shall be using in this tutorial. However, Python 2, although not being updated with anything other than security updates, is still quite popular.
  • In this tutorial Python will be written in a text editor. It is possible to write Python in an Integrated Development Environment, such as Thonny, Pycharm, Netbeans or Eclipse which are particularly useful when managing larger collections of Python files.

Python Syntax compared to other programming languages

  • Python was designed for readability, and has some similarities to the English language with influence from mathematics.
  • Python uses new lines to complete a command, as opposed to other programming languages which often use semicolons or parentheses.
  • Python relies on indentation, using whitespace, to define scope; such as the scope of loops, functions and classes. Other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose.

Difference between loc() and iloc() in Pandas DataFrame

  Difference between loc() and iloc() in Pandas DataFrame Pandas library of python is very useful for the manipulation of mathematical data and is widely used in the field of machine learning. It comprises many methods for its proper functioning.  loc()  and  iloc()  are one of those methods. These are used in slicing data from the Pandas DataFrame. They help in the convenient selection of data from the DataFrame. They are used in filtering the data according to some conditions. The working of both of these methods is explained in the sample dataset of cars. loc()  :  loc()  is label-based data selecting method which means that we have to pass the name of the row or column which we want to select. This method includes the last element of the range passed in it, unlike  iloc() .  loc()   can accept the boolean data unlike  iloc()  .  iloc() :  iloc( )  is an indexed-based selecting method which means that we ...

Fig 1:  Process of  Data Analysis – Data Analyst Interview Questions Collect Data:  The data gets collected from various sources and is stored so that it can be cleaned and prepared. In this step, all the missing values and outliers are removed. Analyse Data:  Once the data is ready, the next step is to analyze the data. A model is run repeatedly for improvements. Then, the model is validated to check whether it meets the business requirements.
