This article will show you how to use Python’s built-in variable conversion functions, with examples. A variable’s type determines what kind of data it can store and what can be done with it. For example, string typed variables contain sequences of characters that can be joined and split (think words and sentences). In contrast, numeric typed variables contain numeric values intended to be used in calculations. Being able to convert a variable’s type allows data to be used in different ways. Converting a Variable to a … Read more

This article will explain in simple terms what linked lists are, why they’re useful, and how to use them in the Python programming language. Lists In Python, a list is an array of data – a simple list of values where each item has a value and a position in the list. Lists are indexed (so the positions start counting at position 0, not 1).

This article will detail how to use the ‘accumulate()’ function in Python and provide some easy-to-follow example code. The accumulate() function in Python will process an iterable (iterables are things like lists, dictionaries, sets, or tuples – collections containing items which can be looped over) – returning the accumulated sum of the value of each item or running a given function on each item. The value of the accumulated value is stored for each step and returned with the result. The syntax and code in this article are written for … Read more

The Python range() function returns an immutable sequence of integers between a given start and endpoint, incrementing by a given amount. Python range Syntax Here’s the syntax for the Python range() function: range(start, stop, step) Note that: start is the integer to start incrementing from – it will be included in the range If it is not supplied, it will be assumed to be 0 stop is the integer to end the range at – it will NOT be included in the range – the range will end before the stop value If start and stop are the same, an empty … Read more

Python is widely used for both scripting and automation on Linux, as well as building web and standalone applications. Python is designed to be easy to learn, easy to write, and easy to read. It’s a great multi-purpose programming language. Python has several different types of arrays for storing data. Lists are arrays which allow you to store items. Items in lists can be altered, and are stored in a specific order. Syntax and Examples There are several methods you can use to remove an … Read more
