Python Syntax

  Python  Syntax As we learned in the previous page, Python syntax can be executed by writing directly in the Command Line: >>> print("Hello, World!") Hello, World! Or by creating a python file on the server, using the .py file extension, and running it in the Command Line: C:\Users\ Your Name >python myfile.py Python Indentation Indentation refers to the spaces at the beginning of a code line. Where in other programming languages the indentation in code is for readability only, the indentation in Python is very important. Python uses indentation to indicate a block of code. Python has no command for declaring a variable. You will learn more about variables in the  Python Variables  chapter. Comments Python has commenting capability for the purpose of in-code documentation. Comments start with a #, and Python will render the rest of the line as a comment:

Python Tutorial

  Python  Tutorial print ( "Hello, World!" ) What is Python? Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum, and released in 1991. It is used for: web development (server-side), software development, mathematics, system scripting. What can Python do? Python can be used on a server to create web applications. Python can be used alongside software to create workflows. Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and modify files. Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics. Python can be used for rapid prototyping, or for production-ready software development. Why Python? Python works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc). Python has a simple syntax similar to the English language. Python has syntax that allows developers to write programs with fewer lines than some other programming languages. Python runs on an interpreter system, meaning that code can be executed as soon as it is wri

Python – Colour Detection using Pandas & OpenCV

  Python – Colour Detection using Pandas & OpenCV What is Colour Detection? Colour detection is the process of detecting the name of any color. Simple isn’t it? Well, for humans this is an extremely easy task but for computers, it is not straightforward. Human eyes and brains work together to translate light into color. Light receptors that are present in our eyes transmit the signal to the brain. Our brain then recognizes the color. Since childhood, we have mapped certain lights with their color names. We will be using the somewhat same strategy to detect color names. Prerequisites Before starting with this Python project with source code, you should be familiar with the computer vision library of Python that is  OpenCV  and  Pandas . OpenCV, Pandas, and numpy are the Python packages that are necessary for this project in Python. To install them, simply run this pip command in your terminal: pip install opencv-python numpy pandas Run Python File The beginner Python project is now
