Table of Contents

Hi, guys welcome to my new article in which I am going to explain some basic Python programs with their output and how to run them.

With the help of this article, you can create all the programs in Python with all the knowledge about Python programs and their syntax and how to run them.

Python Programming

Python is a high-level programming language that is used for web development, computing, data analysis, artificial intelligence, and other purposes. It is also known for its simplicity, readability, and versatility, and has a large and active community of users and developers. Python code is often written in an interpreted format, which means that it does not need to be compiled before it is executed.

Some Common Python Programs

Program to Print Hello World
Performing Arithmetic
Find the area of 2D shapes

Write a program for performing arithmetic operations

num1 = input('Enter first number: ')  
num2 = input('Enter second number: ')  
  
# Add two numbers  
add = float(num1) + float(num2)  
# Subtract two numbers  
sub = float(num1) - float(num2)  
# Multiply two numbers  
mul = float(num1) * float(num2)  
#Divide two numbers  
div = float(num1) / float(num2)  

print('The sum of {0} and {1} is {2}'.format(num1, num2, add))  
  
print('The subtraction of {0} and {1} is {2}'.format(num1, num2, sub))  

print('The multiplication of {0} and {1} is {2}'.format(num1, num2, mul))

    if choice in ('1', '2', '3', '4'):
        try:
            n1 = float(input("Enter first number: "))
            n2 = float(input("Enter second number: "))
        except ValueError:
            print("Invalid input. Please enter a number.")
            continue

        if choice == '1':

        # check if user wants another calculation
        # break the while loop if answer is no
        next_calculation = input("Want to do next calculation? (yes/no): ")
        if next_calculation == "no":

Write a program for swapping two values

Using the third variable

A = int( input("Enter value of A: "))  
B = int( input("Enter value of B: "))  
   
C = A  
A = B  
B = C 
   
print ("Value of A after swapping: ", A)  
print ("Value of B after swapping: ", B)


//Output in compiler



Enter value of A: 8
Enter value of B: 10
Value of A after swapping:  10
Value of B after swapping:  8

Using comma operator


A = int( input("Enter value of A: "))  
B = int( input("Enter value of B: "))  
   
A,B = B,A
   
print ("Value of A after swapping: ", A)  
print ("Value of B after swapping: ", B)

//Output in compiler



Enter value of A: 20
Enter value of B: 10
Value of A after swapping:  10
Value of B after swapping:  20

Using XOR method

A = int( input("Enter value of A: "))  
B = int( input("Enter value of B: "))  
   
A = A ^ B  
B = A ^ B  
A = A ^ B
   
print ("Value of A after swapping: ", A)  
print ("Value of B after swapping: ", B)


//Output in compiler



Enter value of A: 10
Enter value of B: 15
Value of A after swapping:  15
Value of B after swapping:  10

Using arithmetic operations

A = int( input("Enter value of A: "))  
B = int( input("Enter value of B: "))  
   
A = A + B  
B = A - B  
A = A - B
   
print ("Value of A after swapping: ", A)  
print ("Value of B after swapping: ", B)


//Output in compiler



Enter value of A: 10
Enter value of B: 20
Value of A after swapping:  20
Value of B after swapping:  10

Write a program to check whether the number is positive, negative, or 0.

Using if…elif…else

num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
if num > 0:
   print("Given number is Positive")
elif num == 0:
   print("Zero")
else:
   print("Given number is Negative")


//Output in compiler


Enter a number: 3
Given number is Positive

Using Nested if

num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
if num >= 0:
   if num == 0:
       print("Zero")
   else:
       print("Given number is Positive")
else:
   print("Given number is Negative")



//Output in compiler


Enter a number: -5
Given number is Negative
