Python syntax refers to the rules and conventions that dictate how Python code is written and structured. Here are some fundamental aspects of Python syntax:

Statements and Indentation:

Python uses indentation to define blocks of code, such as loops, conditionals, and function definitions. Indentation is typically four spaces, but consistency is more important than the actual number of spaces.

Statements are typically written one per line, but you can use a semicolon (;) to write multiple statements on a single line.

Comments:

Comments start with the # character and extend to the end of the line. They are used to document code and are ignored by the Python interpreter.

#symbol is used for comment in python. The keyboard should is largely ‘Ctrl + /’, however in idle uses #’Alt + 3′ to comment.

x = 10 # this is a commment

Variables and Data Types:

Variables are created by assigning a value to a name. Variable names can contain letters, numbers, and underscores but must start with a letter or underscore.

Python supports various data types, including integers, floats, strings, booleans, lists, tuples, dictionaries, and more.

It is possible to assign multiple variable to multiple values respectively in python.

x, y, z = 1, 2.3, "hello"
print(x, y, z)

Another form of multiple assignment is

x = y = z = 1
Multiple assignment makes swapping variable values very easy in python.

x, y = 1, 2
x, y = y, x

Variable naming conventions in Python:

1. Rules:

• Start with a letter or underscore (_): Variable names must begin with a letter (a-z, A-Z) or an underscore. Numbers cannot be the first character.
• Alphanumeric and underscores: The rest of the variable name can contain letters, numbers, and underscores.
• Case-sensitive: Python is case-sensitive. So, age, Age, and AGE are considered different variables.

2. Best Practices:

• Descriptive: Choose names that clearly reflect the variable’s purpose. For example, customer_name is better than x.
• Lowercase with underscores: The most common convention is to use lowercase letters separated by underscores (e.g., total_cost, is_admin).
• Avoid reserved words: Don’t use words that have special meanings in Python (like if, for, def). These are called keywords and cannot be used as variable names.

3. Examples:

• Good: user_input, calculation_result, in_stock
• Bad: x (unclear), userName (mixed case), 1stPlace (starts with a number)

4. Additional Tips:

• Long names: For complex variable names, consider using abbreviations or prefixes (e.g., api_key, num_items).
• Constants: If a variable’s value won’t change, use uppercase letters with underscores (e.g., PI = 3.14159).

2. Comparison Operators:

• Evaluate conditions and return boolean values (True or False).

3. Assignment Operators:

• Assign values to variables.

4. Logical Operators:

• Combine conditional statements.

5. Membership Operators:

• Check if a value is present in a sequence (list, tuple, string).

Order of operations

When more than one operator appears in an expression, the order of evaluation depends on the rules of precedence. For mathematical operators, Python follows mathematical convention. The acronym PEMDAS is a useful way to remember the rules:

• Parentheses have the highest precedence and can be used to force an expression to evaluate in the order you want. Since expressions in parentheses are evaluated first, 2 * (3-1) is 4, and (1+1)**(5-2) is 8. You can also use parentheses to make an expression easier to read, as in (minute * 100) / 60, even if it doesn’t change the result.
• Exponentiation has the next highest precedence, so 2**1+1 is 3, not 4, and 3*1**3 is 3, not 27.
• Multiplication and Division have the same precedence, which is higher than Addition and Subtraction, which also have the same precedence. So 2*3-1 is 5, not 4, and 6+4/2 is 8, not 5.
• Operators with the same precedence are evaluated from left to right. So the expression 5-3-1 is 1, not 3, because the 5-3 happens first and then 1 is subtracted from 2.

When in doubt, always put parentheses in your expressions to make sure the computations are performed in the order you intend.

Below is a comprehensive Python program that demonstrates the use of various operators including arithmetic, comparison, logical, bitwise, assignment, membership, and identity operators. This example aims to cover each type of operator in a meaningful context to illustrate their usage.

print(f"x is not z: {is_not_same}")

# Putting it all together in a simple example
