Introduction to Python

[manishawsdevops]

Cover below topics by following this guidelines.

• [ ] Create a folder called Intro_Python in root of repo - then proceed for below step
• [ ] Separate folder for every topic ( should be 17 different folders based on topic )
• [ ] Each folder should have different .py files for every concept ( Can include more concepts as well, but should address all below concepts for sure )
• [ ] Provide a neat readme.md file inside the Intro_Python folder - you can include below for reference.
• [ ] Create a new branch from main here and start working there - Once you are done - You can create a PR for the same and add me as a reviewer.

I think Basic Input and Output should be 3rd topic

[manishawsdevops]

Sure - Please go ahead and reorder anything according to you. Please ensure all the concepts are addressed

[manishawsdevops]

make a PPT of all the information - Make it very simple to the point. Do not include examples - Only include concepts in the PPT. We need to check-in the file inside the repo.

[sujith2303]

Ok I ll make a ppt for each topic and a very small optional programming exercise Is this fine?

[sujith2303]

The programming exercise is on the topics what i thought or the same code in the video

[manishawsdevops]

@sujith2303 - Try making the videos very crisp and to the point. Address the fundamentals clearly.
