Here’s a description on the topic of "Rainforests":
Rainforests are dense, tropical ecosystems teeming with life and characterized by high levels of rainfall, typically exceeding 2000 mm annually. Found near the equator, they cover only about 6% of Earth's surface but are home to more than half of all known plant and animal species. These lush forests, such as the Amazon, Congo, and Southeast Asian rainforests, boast towering trees that form a dense canopy, allowing little sunlight to penetrate

12.1 Introduction to Python
Python is a high-level, object-oriented programming language. It is created by
Guido van Rossum. The Python was first released in 1991. Python is now one of the
most popular languages. Python got its name from a BBC comedy series - “Monty
Python's Flying Circus”. Python is based on ABC language and Modula-3. Python is
an easy-to-learn yet powerful object-oriented programming language.
12.1.1 The Features of Python
Following are some basic features of Python: Gudio van Rossum,
developer of Python
1. Python is a free and open source programming language.
It is easy to learn and use.
It can run on multiple platforms or operating systems such as Windows, Linux, UNIX, Mac OS, etc
2.
3.
4, Python is an interpreted language, which makes it faster than other compiled languages.
5. Itis suitable as an extension language for customizable applications
6.
Python provides interface to all databases, e.g, SQL Database, Oracle and many more.
12.2 Getting Started Python
Python doesn't come prepackaged with Windows. So it is necessary to download it from the Python's offical
website and install into the computer.

2 Installing Python
«stall Python on your computer, follow the steps:
Go to the Download folder or where you have saved
Python-3.6.4.exe.
Double-click the file Python-3.6.4.exe.

12.2.3 Verifying Installation
Before verifying installation, you have to set the path for Python. To set the path:
1. Right-click on This PC icon and select Properties.
The System window appears.

The program will be saved with the extension .py. 3
12.4 Running a Python Program
You can run a Python program in the following two methods:
12.4.1 Running in Python Shell
To run or execute the Python program in the Python shell:
1. Goto the Run menu and select the Run Module option (see Figure 12.19).
