Python 教學

Python 是一種易學、功能強大的程式語言。它有高效能的高階資料結構，也有簡單但有效的方法去實現物件導向程式設計。Python 優雅的語法和動態型別，結合其直譯特性，使它成為眾多領域和大多數平臺上，撰寫腳本和快速開發應用程式的理想語言。

The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are freely available in source or binary form for all major platforms from the Python Web site, https://www.python.org/, and may be freely distributed. The same site also contains distributions of and pointers to many free third party Python modules, programs and tools, and additional documentation.

使用 C 或 C++（或其他可被 C 呼叫的程式語言），可以很容易在 Python 直譯器內新增函式及資料型別。同時，對可讓使用者自訂功能的應用程式來說，Python 也適合作為其擴充語言 （extension language）。

This tutorial introduces the reader informally to the basic concepts and features of the Python language and system. It helps to have a Python interpreter handy for hands-on experience, but all examples are self-contained, so the tutorial can be read off-line as well.

For a description of standard objects and modules, see The Python Standard Library. The Python Language Reference gives a more formal definition of the language. To write extensions in C or C++, read Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter and Python/C API Reference Manual. There are also several books covering Python in depth.

This tutorial does not attempt to be comprehensive and cover every single feature, or even every commonly used feature. Instead, it introduces many of Python's most noteworthy features, and will give you a good idea of the language's flavor and style. After reading it, you will be able to read and write Python modules and programs, and you will be ready to learn more about the various Python library modules described in The Python Standard Library.

The Glossary is also worth going through.
