# Script
0. Turn on VSCode
1. Create a file with extension `.py`
2. Execute :)
> Executed directly on VSCode using Run > Run Without Debugging
```bash
devasc@labvm:~/labs/devnet-src/python$ env DEBUGPY_LAUNCHER_PORT=36095 /usr/bin/python3 /home/devasc/.vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2020.4.76186/pythonFiles/lib/python/debugpy/no_wheels/debugpy/launcher /home/devasc/labs/devnet-src/python/hello-world.py
Hello World!
```
> Executed manually on command prompt (same directory/folder)
```bash
devasc@labvm:~/labs/devnet-src/python$ python3 hello-world.py
Hello World!
devasc@labvm:~/labs/devnet-src/python$

# Data Type
```bash
Python 3.12.6 (tags/v3.12.6:a4a2d2b, Sep 6 2024, 20:11:23) [MSC v.1940 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> type("DevNet")
<class 'str'>
>>> type(False) # important depan caps
<class 'bool'>
>>> type(22)
<class 'int'>
>>> type(22.11)
<class 'float'>
>>>
```
# Boolean
```bash
>>> 1<2
True
>>> 1<1
False
>>> 1==1
True
>>> 1>=1
True
>>> 1<=1
True
```
# String Concatenation
```bash
>>> str1 = "Aan"
>>> str2 = "Was"
>>> str3 = "Here"
>>> print(str1 + " " + str2 + " " + str3)
Aan Was Here
>>> print(str1, str2, str3)
Aan Was Here
```
# Type casting (change data type)
Cannot directly + int to a string
```bash
>>> x=5
>>> print("The value of x is " + x)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str
```
So change the data type of x into string first
```bash
>>> print("The value of x is " + str(x))
The value of x is 5
```
Careful wit the location it is assigned
```bash
>>> x=5 # initially it is int, therefore output pon int
>>> print("The value of x is " + x)
>>> type(x)
<class 'int'>
```
Reassigned again, but as a str
```bash
>>> x = str(5)
>>> type(x)
<class 'str'>
```
Formatting output
```bash
>>> num = 39/7
>>> print(f"The value of num is {num}")
The value of num is 5.571428571428571
>>> shortnum = "{:.2f}".format(num)
>>> f"The value of 39/7 is {shortnum}."
5.57
```
# List
```bash
>>> hostnames=["M1","N1","N2","R1","R2","R3"]
>>> type(hostnames)
<class 'list'>
>>> len(hostnames)
6
>>> hostnames
['M1','N1','N2','R1','R2','R3']
>>> hostnames[0]
'M1'
>>> hostnames[-1]
'R3'
>>> hostnames[0] = "R1"
>>> hostnames
['R1','N1','N2','R1','R2','R3']
>>> del hostnames[3]
>>> hostnames
['R1','N1','N2','R2','R3']
```
# Dictionary
```bash
>>> csProgram ={"R":"Computer Network & Security", "B":"Bioinformatics", "P":"Data Engineering"}
>>> type(csProgram)
<class 'dict'>
>>> csProgram
{'R': 'Computer Network & Security', 'B': 'Bioinformatics', 'P': 'Data Engineering'}
>>> csProgram['R']
'Computer Network & Security'
>>> csProgram["J"]="Software Engineering"
>>> csProgram
{'R': 'Computer Network & Security', 'B': 'Bioinformatics', 'P': 'Data Engineering', 'J': 'Software Engineering'}
>>> csProgram["R"]=["Networks & Security", "Cyber Security"]
{'R': ['Computer Network & Security', 'Cyber Security'], 'B': 'Bioinformatics', 'P': 'Data Engineering', 'J': 'Software Engineering'}
```
