INTRODUCTION OF PYTHON..

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 written. This means that prototyping can be very quick.

Python can be treated in a procedural way, an object-oriented way or a functional way.
Good to know
The most recent major version of Python is Python 3, which we shall be using in this tutorial. However, Python 2, although not being updated with anything other than security updates, is still quite popular.

In this tutorial Python will be written in a text editor. It is possible to write Python in an Integrated Development Environment, such as Thonny, Pycharm, Netbeans or Eclipse which are particularly useful when managing larger collections of Python files.

Python Syntax compared to other programming languages
Python was designed for readability, and has some similarities to the English language with influence from mathematics.

Python uses new lines to complete a command, as opposed to other programming languages which often use semicolons or parentheses.

Python relies on indentation, using whitespace, to define scope; such as the scope of loops, functions and classes. 
Other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose

INTRODUCTION Digital computer concept:- 1. Digital computers are designed to store, process and communicate information in digital form. 2. Digital computer is any of a class of digital devices capable of solving problems by processing information in discrete form. 3. It is used for processing data represented by discrete, localized physica signals, as the presence or electic current. 4.The main three components of digital computer:- >input:- The user gives a set of input data through input devices. >Processing :- The input data is processed with the help of CPU by well defined and finite sequence of step. >Output : - Some data available from the processing step are output to the user. TYPE OF DIGITAL COMPUTER :- 1.Microcomputer/Desktop computer 2.Minicomputer 3.Mainframe computer 4.Supercomputers Microcomputer :- 1.Microcomputer is also called a personal computer or desktop computer. 2.It includes a microprocessor, memory,...

INTRODUCTION OF DBMS

-
What is Database :- The database is a collection of inter-related data which is used to retrieve, insert and delete the data efficiently. It is also used to organize the data in the form of a table, schema, views, and reports, etc. For example: The college Database organizes the data about the admin, staff, students and faculty etc. Using the database, you can easily retrieve, insert, and delete the information. DBMS (Database Management System):- Database management system is a software which is used to manage the database. For example: MySQL, Oracle, etc are a very popular commercial database which is used in different applications.DBMS provides an interface to perform various operations like database creation, storing data in it, updating data, creating a table in the database and a lot more.It provides protection and security to the database. In the case of multiple users, it also maintains data consistency. DBMS allows users the following tasks:- Data Definitio...

Introduction to cache memory

Cache Memory in Computer Organization Cache Memory  is a special very high-speed memory. It is used to speed up and synchronizing with high-speed CPU. Cache memory is costlier than main memory or disk memory but economical than CPU registers. Cache memory is an extremely fast memory type that acts as a buffer between RAM and the CPU. It holds frequently requested data and instructions so that they are immediately available to the CPU when needed. Cache memory is used to reduce the average time to access data from the Main memory. The cache is a smaller and faster memory which stores copies of the data from frequently used main memory locations. There are various different independent caches in a CPU, which stored instruction and data. Levels of memory: Level 1 or Register – It is a type of memory in which data is stored and accepted that are immediately stored in CPU. Most commonly used register is accumulator, Program counter, address register etc. Level 2 or...
