Thank you for making it to the end. The basics of Python programming have been explained in this book. First of all I tried to explain why programming is useful and why (in my opinion) we should all be able to do it. After introducing this concept, in my fundamental opinion, I explained how to install Python on your computer and I introduced you to the basic concepts.

Naturally it will change the syntax and the potential of the language, but with a basic knowledge, like the one I have provided you with in this book, you will be able to learn much faster.

Python is a programming language that has gained popularity in the last few years due to its simple and flexible syntax and the highly efficient functions and tools that come with it. As an object-oriented scripting language, Python can be used for coding of both web pages and applications algorithms or codes. It is applied in many fields and used by web developers and scientists around the world. It is easy to understand and therefore does require a lot of technical knowhow by the users. This is unlike other programming languages such as Java which are a little technical. Python tools and functions include: Working with Inheritance in Python, Working with Iterators in Python, Python Generators, Itertools in the Python language, and Closure in Python.

These tools and functions make Python language suitable for complex and simple coding projects since it is clean and the length of the codes is short compared to others. Moreover, it is exciting to work in Python because it enables you to focus on the challenge instead of the syntax.

Itertools in the Python language are modules that implement iterator building blocks. The work of itertools is to produce complex iterators. Working with iterators in Python require skills and focus. Python generators are used to create iterators. There are numerous overheads that exists in creating iterators in Python. Python generators handle all the overhead. In simple terms, a generator is used to return objects (iterators) that can be iterated. It is easy to create a generator in Python once you understand how it works. The generator function is one of the best and notable features of the Python programming language. You can find several articles on the Internet that describe the benefits of using generators in Python, including speed, memory efficiency, and scalability.

However, there is limited information on how the generator function works. What many writers do not tell you is that generators work well in Python. The best part of the generator feature is that it can be paused and resumed later, unlike other functions. When the function is paused, the local state is kept intact until the user is ready to resume functions again. Generators are written functions using the yield statement instead of the return statement. It is an effective tool for implementing iterators.

One of the distinctive properties of generators is the ability to connect with other generators and generator expressions to form a long chain of data processing pipeline. Pipelining of data is a critical organizational process that allows for processing of large amounts of data for strategic decision making. When connected, a chain of generators works efficiently to process complex sequences into a single match, each at a time, with the output from the previous generator becoming the input for the next generator.

Moreover, it is convenient and easy to implement because it facilitates the evaluation of elements, unlike regular functions. The generator is preferred because it takes less memory. List comprehensions form part of functional programming in Python language. It allows users to create lists using a for-loop. Generator expressions are limited and one can only do so much with them.

However, this does not mean that you cannot do interesting things with generator expressions Closures are preferred by many because they avoid the use of global variables. In cases where there are few methods in class, opt for closures. You can make a Python closure and a nested loop to make functions and get numerous multiplication functions by employing closures. Moreover, you can use closures to make multiply with 5 () easily. Using closures in Python makes learning fun and exciting. Closures are mostly used when the person. Several documentations about closures and programming focus on front-end development. A function is the most popular unit of scope, and every function declared results in an individual scope.
