Python basics Notiz

import math
Python is CASE SENSITIVE !!

methods:

1. basic
   1. print()
   2. input()
2. 1. len() to calculate length of a string, list element numbers, …
   2. find() to return the index of a character or character sequence in the string(case sensitive)
   3. replace() to replace a certain pattern to another(case sensitive)
   4. upper()
   5. lower()
3. typecast：
   1. int()
   2. float()
4. mathematical
   1. round()
   2. abs()

‘’’ ‘’’ string in several lines, without any indent(despite in structural blocks with automatically indent)
compare:

"""
	this is a string
	this is a string
"""

"""
this is a string
this is a string
"""

usage of ’ ’ and “”
format string:
f’ {variables}’
using curly braces to dynamically insert values

" pattern " in string variable : returns the result as a boolean value(case sensitive)

String accessing and cutting:
index could be positive and negativ.
range using [a:b]
e.g.:
abcdefgh
[0:2] : ab
[-1] : h
[-10:-1] : abcdefg
[-1:-10] : no output, no error

exponentiation: **
operator precedence
logical operators: and, or, not
comparison operators:

structural:
if

if boolean_variable:
	statement
elif boolean_variable:
else:
	statement

while

while boolean_variable:
	statement
	...
	break
else:
	statement 	//while exited normally without been breaked.
