Beginning with Python

I am a dentist, switching to data science. This switch has been a journey in itself and I am still moving forward.

I would like to start this blog with my learning journey of Python. This is technically the first language I am learning in a structured manner and feel that I can begin my path on blogging with it.

Python is a programming language. It is so far, considered to be a language closest to English, thus easy to understand. However, despite being easy, it has high level data structure and has an effective approach to object-oriented programming.

Platforms used for Python distribution are Anaconda and Google Colab

Anaconda toolkit is an open source and easy to use. Anaconda uses local storage and can be subscribed for cloud services as well. Jupyter notebook is mostly used for Python and it is launched on your default browser.  On the contrary, Google Colab is completely cloud based.

The extensions for Python notebooks is .ipynb
