It is also utilized across various fields like data analysis, artificial intelligence, automation, and web development, making it broadly adopted in many industries.


What can you create with Python?​

  • Office Automation Programs: You can create programs to automate tasks such as processing Excel data, merging PDF files, and generating Word documents.

  • AI Models: Train and utilize AI models for specific areas such as image classification, natural language processing, and speech recognition.

  • Web Servers: Develop a web server that serves as the brain of interactive online services.


Coding Practice​

To learn programming quickly, you should frequently write code.

Type average = sum(numbers) / len(numbers) into the practice code editor.

  • sum: Python function to calculate the sum of numbers enclosed in the parentheses

  • len: Python function to determine the length of the data within the parentheses

The code you input calculates the average of the numbers stored in the variable numbers and saves the result in the variable average.
