Sections

  • 1

    Types Of Statements

    This section covers the different types of statements in Python, including expression, assignment, conditional, looping statements, and scope.

  • 1.1

    Expression Statement

    An expression statement in Python is a standalone expression that evaluates and returns a value.

  • 1.2

    Assignment Statement

    The Assignment Statement in Python is used to assign values to variables, which is fundamental in programming.

  • 1.3

    Conditional Statements

    Conditional statements allow programs to execute different code sections based on specific conditions.

  • 1.4

    Looping Statements

    Looping statements in Python allow for the execution of a block of code multiple times based on certain conditions.

  • 1.5

    Break And Continue Statements

    Break and continue statements control the flow of loops, allowing for immediate termination or the skipping of iterations.

  • 1.6

    Pass Statement

    The Pass Statement serves as a placeholder in Python, allowing the program to bypass certain code segments without execution.

  • 2

    Compound Statements And Blocks

    This section covers the concept of compound statements and blocks in Python, explaining how they are structured and the significance of indentation.

  • 3

    Scope And Lifetime Of Variables

    This section discusses the concept of scope in programming, focusing on where variables can be accessed within a program based on their lifetime and defined regions.

  • 3.1

    What Is Scope?

    Scope in programming defines where variables and functions are accessible within a code.

  • 3.2

    Legb Rule

    The LEGB rule describes the order in which Python resolves variable names, identifying scopes as Local, Enclosing, Global, and Built-in.

  • 3.3

    Global And Local Variables

    This section explains global and local variables in Python, highlighting their scopes and uses within functions.

  • 3.4

    Global And Nonlocal Keywords

    The global and nonlocal keywords in Python allow function-level access to variables defined outside their immediate scope.

  • 4

    Indentation In Python

    This section discusses the significance of indentation in Python, which is crucial for defining code blocks and avoiding syntax errors.

  • 5

    Summary

    This section provides an overview of statements and scope in Python programming.
