Getting Started with Python: Simple Programs for Beginners

 Certainly! I'd be happy to help you get started with Python. Python is a versatile and beginner-friendly programming language. Let's begin with some simple programs to help you understand the basics. Here's an example of a few programs:

1. Hello, World! The "Hello, World!" program is a classic starting point for beginners. It simply prints the phrase "Hello, World!" to the console.

python
print("Hello, World!")

2. Simple Calculator Let's create a program that takes two numbers from the user and performs basic arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

python
# Addition
num1 = float(input("Enter the first number: "))
num2 = float(input("Enter the second number: "))
result = num1 + num2
print("The sum is:", result)

# Subtraction
result = num1 - num2
print("The difference is:", result)

# Multiplication
result = num1 * num2
print("The product is:", result)

# Division
result = num1 / num2
print("The quotient is:", result)

3. Guessing Game In this program, the user has to guess a randomly generated number between 1 and 10. The program provides feedback based on whether the guess is too high or too low until the correct number is guessed.

python
import random

number = random.randint(1, 10)
guess = int(input("Guess a number between 1 and 10: "))

while guess != number:
    if guess < number:
        print("Too low!")
    else:
        print("Too high!")
    guess = int(input("Try again: "))

print("Congratulations! You guessed the correct number:", number)

These are just a few simple examples to get you started. Python offers a wide range of possibilities, and you can explore more complex concepts and applications as you progress. Remember to run these programs in a Python environment (such as IDLE, PyCharm, or Jupyter Notebook) to see the output.
