#####WELCOME TO YOUR FIRST PYTHON TUTORIAL##### #If you have downloaded and haven't done, change the extesion from .txt to .py in order to run in your python editor #1. We shall begin by creating our first python program, the program is simple and executes one function #2. The function we are going to use is a simple function called "print" #3. A string is a list of characters e.g. "hello world" is an example of a string #4. Notice that everything we wish to print is in quotes, this is called "printing a string" #5. That is all, the example below shows us printing a string saying "hello world" print "hello world" #CONGRATULATIONS - YOU HAVE JUST WRITTWEN YOUR FIRST PYTHON PROGRAM # YOU HAVE PUT ONE STEP ON THE LADDER TO BECOMING AN ENIGMA2 PROGRAMMER #TO NOTE FOR ENIGMA2 AND PEOPLE FROM OTHER LANGUAGES #1. If using GUI then print isn't always the best thing to use when testing variables #2. Python is a very clean language, there's no need to put ; after each line like in languages such as PHP and C# #3. Printing is good when testing scripts from command line envrionment to check functions etc. work
