Python Syntax And Semantics
The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java. However, there are some definite differences between the languages. Design philosophy Python was designed to be a highly readable language. It has a relatively uncluttered visual layout and uses English keywords frequently where other languages use punctuation. Python aims to be simple and consistent in the design of its syntax, encapsulated in the mantra , from the Zen of Python. This mantra is deliberately opposed to the Perl and Ruby mantra, "there's more than one way to do it". Keywords Python has 35 keywords or ''reserved words''; they cannot be used as identifiers. *and *as *assert *async *await *break *class *continue *def *del *elif *else *except *False *finally *for *from *global *if *import *in *is *lambda *None * ...
