Logical operators in python : Beginner Python Programming Tutorial - How to become a Python Jedi - Part 3-4



Welcome back friends to another post on TheCodingProject and we are back with the fourth chapter of the Python programming tutorial - How to become a python Jedi. This time we are going to learn about logical operators.

What are Logical Operators ?
Logical operators are used to compare any two values, be it two numbers , two strings or any other objects. In short these operators help us to make a decision by giving back the results of a comparison. logical operators always return either a True or a False.

Different Logical operators →
== Equal to
!=  Not equal to
<   Less than
>   greater than
<= Less than or equal to
>= Greater than or equal to

Examples of Logical operators →
Let’s get into some examples to better understand the usage of comparison operators. Copy the below code and paste it in pycharm or any other editor that you have. Additionally you can also download the comparison operators.py code file of this tutorial from github. →










For the first print statement the Equals to operator denotes that we want to compare that whether the integers 1 & 2 are equal to each other or not. When the control finds that both the integer values are not equal then it returns a False. Similarly for the second print statement when control finds that the two strings are not equal to each other so it returns a False once again. But in the third print statement we are comparing to see if 45 is greater than 34 and since it’s true, so a value True is returned. Similarly in the last print statement since 56 is equal to 56, so the condition less than or equal to evaluates to True.  
So, folks this was all for this week but we shall return with another chapter of this tutorial with some new concepts to learn.

What I learned from writing a guest post

                                                     Recently I wrote a python tutorial for Datacamp , while writing this tutorial I learned a couple of things which I am going to share with you right here in my blog post. May be you can use my experiences in your own endeavours as a writer. Idea The first step is idea generation. You can either search through any previous topics in your blog post if you have one or you can go through your past learning, experiences or any problem statement that you might have gone through and you will find that while doing that you can get tons of ideas to start your article. If you fall short of ideas then you can ask for help from may be your social media followings your friends or your family, for example I asked the people at Datacamp  themselves and they suggested me a couple of topics which got me st...

For Loop in python 3 : How to become a Python Jedi - Beginners Python Programming Tutorial - Part 7

I am back again with another part in the beginner python programming tutorial series. We will continue with "Loops" but this time we are going to learn how to use for loop in python 3.  Difference between For loop and While Loop A "For Loop" and "While Loop" have a common connection that both are looping statement, but major difference is that unlike while loop, a for loop gets executed a specified number of times. We can break down the For loop into the following components(Refer to the for loop flow chart below). for keyword variable name call to the range function colon operator clause or block of code Hovering over the flow-chart The above flow-chart is..well horrible I know, but I make my own drawings because I can't afford an artist. So, bear with me. In the above flowchart is a very basicy, laymanish representation of a for loop. The decision box contains the  For  statement along-with it's sou...

Expressions in Python : How to become a Python programming Jedi - A Python programming Tutorial Part 1

Long Long ago in a Galaxy far far away there was a planet named Quora. There was a growing agitation among the planet’s inhabitants to learn the way of the Python programming Force and become a master in the way of the Python programming Jedi, but very few knew that the secret art of the Jedi is embedded in a book named as TheCodingProject…. So, let’s begin the journey of learning the secret art of the Python programming Force and we shall together make the journey towards becoming the Python Jedi…. What is Python? As per Wikipedia “Python is a widely used high-level , general-purpose , interpreted , dynamic programming language .” Python is an open source programming language which was conceived in the late 1980s and its implementation began in December 1989 by Guido van Rossum (more on it here ). For us it’s sufficient to know that Python is : High level language - Python is a high-level programming language because it provides strong “:abstractio...
