Tutorial 1
Welcome to the python_tutorial wiki!
Python is a scripting language that translates written programs directly into machine language when executed by the user. This is unlike other scripting languages, which usually have a compilation process before they can be run.
Over the years, the python language has become increasingly popular because the simplicity of language means it is relatively easy to get started, even for people with no background in programming. Python is also a free and open-source software that allows anyone in the community to develope and share packages with others over an internet connection. These packages have built over time to a very rich and powerful library for users to call upon, as we shall see by the end of this tutorial.
The best way to install Python depends on which operating system you are using on your computer. If you are using a Linux or an Apple Mac operating system then python is already installed. If however you ar using a Windows computer the best way is to use a software called Anaconda. Anaconda can be downloaded for free from this link here.
