INTRODUCTION: PYTHON
Python is an interpreter, object-oriented,
high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Its
high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic
typing and dynamic binding; make it very attractive for Rapid
Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or
glue language to connect existing components together.
Python's simple, easy to learn syntax
emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of
program maintenance. Python supports modules and
packages, which encourages program modularity and code
reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard
library are available in source or binary form without charge
for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.
HISTORY OF PYTHON
Python was developed by Guido
van Rossum in the late eighties and early nineties at the
National Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer
Science in the Netherlands. Python is derived from many other
languages, including ABC, Modula-3, C, C++, Small Talk, Algol-
68 and Unix shell and other scripting languages. Python is
copyrighted.
Like Perl, Python source code is now
available under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Python
is now maintained by a core development team at the
institute, although Guido van Rossum still holds a vital role in
directing its progress.

Python Features
• Easy-to-learn − Python has few keywords, simple
structure, and a clearly defined syntax. This allows
the student to pick up the language quickly.
• Easy-to-read − Python code is more clearly defined
and visible to the eyes.
• Easy-to-maintain − Python's source code is fairly
easy-to-maintain.
• A broad standard library − Python's bulk of the
library is very portable and cross-platform
compatible on UNIX, Windows, and Macintosh.
• Interactive Mode − Python has support for an
interactive mode which allows interactive testing
and debugging of snippets of code.
• Portable − Python can run on a wide variety of
hardware platforms and has the same interface on
all platforms.
• Extendable − You can add low-level modules to the
Python interpreter. These modules enable
programmers to add to or customize their tools to
be more efficient.
• Databases − Python provides interfaces to all
major commercial databases.

6|Page
 • GUI Programming − Python supports GUI
applications that can be created and ported to
many system calls, libraries and windows systems,
such as Windows MFC, Macintosh, and the X
Window system of Unix.
• Scalable − Python provides a better structure and
support for large programs than shell scripting.
Apart from the above-mentioned features, Python has
a big list of good features, few are listed below –
• It supports functional and structured programming
methods as well as OOP.
• It can be used as a scripting language or can be
compiled to byte-code for building large
applications.
• It provides very high-level dynamic data types and
supports dynamic type checking.
• It supports automatic garbage collection.
• It can be easily integrated with C, C++, COM,
ActiveX, CORBA, and Java.

DATA FILE HANDLING IN PYTHON:
A file is a sequence of bytes on the
disk/permanent storage where a group of related data
is stored. File is created for permanent storage of data.
In programming, Sometimes, it is not enough to only
display the data on the console. Those data are to be
retrieved later on, and then the concept of file handling
comes. It is impossible to recover the programmatically
generated data again and again. However, if we need to
do so, we may store it onto the file system which is not
volatile and can be accessed every time. Here, comes
the need of file handling in Python. File handling in
Python enables us to create, update, read, and delete
the files stored on the file system through our python
program
The following operations can be performed on a file. In
Python, File Handling consists of following three steps:
• Open the file.
• Process file i.e. perform read or write operation.
• Close the file.

TYPES OF FILES:
There are three types of files:
Text Files- A file whose contents can be viewed using a
text editor is called a text file. A text file is simply a
sequence of ASCII or Unicode characters. Python
programs, contents written in text editors are some of
the example of text files.
Binary Files-A binary file stores the data in the same
way as stored in the memory. The .exe files, mp3 file,
image files, word documents are some of the examples
of binary files. We can’t read a binary file using a text
editor.
CSV Files: A Comma Separated Values (CSV) file is a
plain text file that contains a list of data. These files are
often used for exchanging data between different
applications. For example, databases and contact
managers often support CSV files.These files may
sometimes be called Character Separated Values or
Comma Delimited files. They mostly use the comma
character to separate (or delimit) data, but sometimes
use other characters, like semicolons.

SQL (Structured Query Language):
It is a standard language for accessing and manipulating
databases. SQL commands are used to create, transform and
retrieve information from Relational Database Management
Systems. They are also used to create interface between user
and database. In Relational database Model all the
information is stored on Tables, these tables are divided into
rows and columns. A collection on related tables is called
DATABASE. A named table in a database is called RELATION in
Relational Data Model. Row in a table is called TUPLES, and
column of a Table are called ATTRIBUTE. No. of rows in a
table is called DEGREE of the table and no. of columns in a
table in called CARDINALITY.
TYPES OF KEYS:
Primary Key : An attribute or a group of attributes which
can distinguish a row uniquely in a table is Called Primary
key/Key Field/Key attribute.
Candidate key: The attributes which are capable to act as a
primary key is known as candidate key.
Alternate key: An attribute which can act as a primary key
in place of primary key as called alternate key.
Foreign Key : An attribute in its present table whose
values are derived from some other table, is called foreign
key in the present table.
