1.6 REQUIREMENTS OF PYTHON

The hardware and software requirement for Python development and execution are
relatively minimal, making it accessible across a wide range of devices and platforms.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENT

 CENTRAL PROCEESING UNIT (CPU)

 Python itself is not particularly resource-intensive and it can run on a wide range of
CPUs, from low-power devices to high-performance servers.
 MEMORY (RAM)
 The amount of RAM required depends on the complexity of Python applications and
the size of datasheets that working with. For basics development and execution, even
system with few gigabytes of RAM should suffice.
 STORAGE SPACE
 Python’s core installation does not require much disk space. However, the disk space
needed may vary depending on the size of the project and the dependencies/libraries
that install. A few gigabytes of storage space should be more than enough for most
Python projects.

SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT

 Operating System
 Python is compatible with various operating systems, including Windows,
Macintosh, Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS).
 Python code written on one operating system can typically run on other without
modification, thanks to Python’s cross-platform compatibility.
 Python Interpreter
 You need a Python interpreter to run Python code. You can download and install the
official Python interpreter from the Python Software Foundation's website: Python
Downloads.
 Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
 While not strictly required, using an IDE or text editor can greatly enhance your
Python development experience. Some popular choices include: PyCharm, Visual
Studio Code (with Python extension), Sublime Text, Atom, Vim, Emacs are shown in
Fig 3.
 Package Manager
 Python's package manager, pip, comes bundled with Python installations starting
from Python 3.4.
 Optional: Virtual Environments
 While not mandatory, using virtual environments (‘virtualenv’ or ‘venv’) is
considered a best practice for managing dependencies. You can create virtual
environments to isolate your Python projects and their dependencies, ensuring
consistency and avoiding conflicts between different projects.
 Optional: Dependency Management Tools
 Depending on your project's requirements, you may need additional tools for
managing dependencies, such as:
 requirements.txt files for specifying project dependencies.

Python's minimal hardware and software requirements contribute to its popularity and
accessibility, allowing developers to write and run Python code on a wide range of devices
and platforms with ease.

1.7 UNDERSTANDING THE EXECUTION OF PYTHON

The execution of the Python program involves two steps:
1) Compilation
2) Interpreter

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

COMPILATION

The program is converted into byte code. It can run on any operating system and hardware.
The byte code instructions are created in the .pyc file.

INTERPRETER

The next step involves converting the byte code (.pyc code) into machine code. This step is
necessary as the computer can understand only machine code (binary code). Python Virtual
Machine (PVM) first understands the operating system and processor in the computer and
then it converts it into machine code. These machine code instructions are executed by
processor and the results are displayed as in Figure 4.

2. KEY CONCEPTS

2.1 LITERAL CONSTANTS

 It is called a literal because it is literal – use its value literally.
 The number 2 always represents itself and nothing else – it is a constant because its
value cannot be changed.
 7,3,9,’A’ and ‘Hello’ all are literals constants.
 Hence, all these are referred to as literal constants.

There are two types of literal constants

1) Numbers
2) Strings

NUMBERS

 There can be use of four type of numbers in python program.

 Integers - 5,1000, 520,250, etc.,
 Long integers – 535633629843L
 Floating points – 3.23, 91.5E-2 (E notation indicates power of 10 91.5*10^-2)
 Complex numbers – a+bi form -3+7i

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 Commas are never used in numeric literals 10,20,30,40 are not allowed in python.
 There is no limit to size of an integer.
 Floating point numbers do not have limited range and limited precision.
 Range – 10^-308 to 10^308
 Precision – 10to 17 digits.

ISSUES WITH FLOATING POINT

 Arithmetic overflow problem – 2.7e00+4.3e200 result would be inf.

 Arithmetic underflow problem – 3.0e-400/5.0e200 result 0.0
 Loss of precision – 1/3=0.33333333333 where 3 is repeated infinitely.

STRINGS

 Using Single Quotes – ‘Hello’

 Using Double Quotes – “Hello”
 Using Triple Quotes – Multiline strings
 ‘’’Good morning, everyone, “Welcome to the world of ‘Python’,” Happy Reading””

ESCAPE SEQUENCES

 Some characters like (“, \) cannot be directly specified in a string.

 Example – print (‘What your name?’)

Syntax error – Invalid Syntax

print (‘What\’s your name?’): correct

\n = New line, \t = Tab space, \b = Back space.

2.2 VARIABLES & IDENTIFIERS

 Variables are reserved memory, locations that stores values.

 To be identified easily every variable is given a name.
 Variables are examples of identifiers.
 Identifiers are names given to variables, functions, class ---- etc.,

RULES FOR NAMING IDENTIFIERS

 Starts with Alphabets or Underscore.

 These are case sensitive.
 No special characters are allowed except underscore.
 Digits (0-9), letters, _ are only allowed.

2.3 DATA TYPES

 Variables can hold values of different types are called datatypes.

 The Boolean data type is either True or False.
 In Python, Boolean variables are defined by the True and False keywords.

IV. COLLECTIONS

Collections refers to data structures that are used to store and manage collections of data.
These collections provide various functions and are designed to suit different needs.
Collections in python are basically container data types, namely lists, sets, tuples, dictionary.
Here an introduction to collections in Python along with some commonly used types:

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

LISTS

 List are ordered collections of items.

 They are mutable, meaning their content can be changed after creation.
 List are created using square brackets ‘[]’.
 Example: ‘my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]’

TUPLES

 Tuples are similar to lists but are immutable, meaning their content cannot be changed
after creation.
 Tuples are created using parentheses ‘()’.
 Example: ‘my_tuples = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)’

SETS

 Sets are unordered collections of unique elements.

 They are mutable, but their elements must be immutable.
 Sets are created using curly braces ‘{}’ or the ‘set()’ function.
 Example: ‘my_set = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}’

DICTIONARIES

 Dictionaries are collection of key-value pairs.

 They are unordered, mutable, and can contain any data types as values.
 Dictionaries are created using curly braces ‘{}’ with key-value pairs separated by colons :
 Examples: ‘my_dict = {‘name’: ‘John’, ‘age’: ‘24’, ‘city’: ‘New York’}’

2.4 OPERATIONS
In Python, operators are special symbols or keywords that are used to perform
operations on operands. Here is an overview of the different types of operators in Python:

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS

Arithmetic operators are used to perform mathematical operations as in Figure 7.

 Addition: ‘+’
 Subtraction: ‘-’

18

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 Multiplication: ‘*’
 Division: ‘/’
 Floor Division: ‘//’ (returns the integer part of the division)
 Modulus: ‘%’ (returns the remainder of the division)
 Exponentiation: ‘**’ (raises the left operand to the power of the right operand)

Fig 7. Arithmetic Operators in Python.

COMPARISON OPERATIONS
Comparison operators are used to compare the values of two operands as shown in Figure 8.
 Equal to: ‘==’
 Not equal to: ‘! =’
 Greater than: ‘>’
 Less than: ‘<’
 Greater than or equal to: ‘>=’
 Less than or equal to: ‘<=’

 Logical AND – ‘and’
 Logical OR – ‘or’
 Logical NOT – ‘not’

Fig 9. Logical Operators in Python.

ASSIGNMENT OPERATORS
Assignment operators are used to assign values to variables as in Figure 11.
 Assignment: ‘=’
 Addition assignment: ‘+=’
 Subtraction assignment: ‘ -=’
 Multiplication assignment: ‘*=’
 Division assignment: ‘/=’
 Modulus assignment: ‘%=’

BITWISE OPERATION
Bitwise operators are used to perform bitwise operations on integers as in Figure 12.
 Bitwise AND: ‘&’
 Bitwise OR: ‘|’
 Bitwise XOR: ‘^’
 Bitwise NOT: ‘ ~’
 Left shift: ‘<<’
 Right shift: ‘>>’

Fig 11. Bitwise Operators in Python.

2.5 TYPE CASTING VS TYPE COERCION

Type casting and type coercion are both mechanisms used in programming language
to convert data from one type to another, but they differ in their approaches and implications.

 Explicit conversion of a value from one datatype to another is called type casting.
 Implicit conversion of datatypes during compilation or runtime is called Type
Coercion.

TYPE CONVERSION
Type conversion, also known as type casting, is the process of converting a value from one
data type to another. In Python, it can perform type conversion using built-in functions or
constructors. Here are some common type conversion functions:

21

Downloaded by Susmitha Nagireddi (susmithacrazy55@gmail.com)

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 Int(x) : Converts x to integer

 Float(x) : Converts x to float
 Str(x) : Converts x to string.
 Tuple(x) : Converts x to tuple.
 List(x) : Converts x to list.
 Set(x) : Converts x to set
 Ord(x) : Converts ASCII value of characters x
 Oct(x) : Converts x to octal.
 Hex(x) : Converts x to hexadecimal.
 Chr(x) : Converts ASCII code to characters.

3. CONTROL STATEMENTS

In Python, control statements are used to control the flow of execution in a program based on
certain conditions. They allow to make decisions, execute code repeatedly, and handle
exceptions. Three fundamental methods of control flow:

1) Sequential
2) Selection (execution only a selected set of stmts)
3) Iteration (execute a set of statements repeatedly)

SELECTION / CONDITIONAL BRANCHING

 These statements usually jump from one part of code to another depending on whether a
particular condition is satisfied or not.
 Conditional statements execute sequentially when there is no condition around the
statements.
 If you put some condition for a block of statements, the execution flow may change based
on the result evaluated by the condition.

If: An if statement is a programming condition that, if proved true, perform a function, or

displays information. The flow chart for if statement is shown in Figure 13.

Fig 13. Flowchart for if statement in Python.

SAMPLE PROGRAM

 Program to increment a number if positive

If you input a positive number like 5, the program will increment it by 1, resulting in 6 as the
output. If you input a number that is not positive, such as 0 or a negative number, the
program will not increment it, and the output will be the same as the input number.

Nested if: Nested if statements mean an if statement inside another is statement. The flow
chart for if statement is shown in Figure 14.

Fig 14. Flowchart for nested if statement in Python.

SAMPLE PROGRAM

 Program to print the given year is leap year or not

If the input the year 2024, the program will determine that it is a leap year and print "2024 is
a leap year".

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

If-else: The if-else statement evaluates test expression and will execute the body of if only
when the test condition is True. If the condition is False, the body of else is executed.
Indentation is used to separate the blocks.

If-elif-else: The if-elif-else statements is used to conditionally execute a statement or a block

of statements. Conditions can be true or false, execute one thing when the condition is true,
something else when the condition is false.

ITERATIVE STATEMENTS

 WHILE LOOP
In the while loop, test expression is checked first. The body of the loop is entered only if
the test expression evaluates to True. After one iteration, the test expression is checked
again. This process continues until the test expression evaluates to False. The flow chart
of while loop is in the figure 15.

Fig 15. Flowchart for while loop in Python.

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

PYTHON BREAK STATEMENTS

The break statements terminate the loop containing it. Control of the program flow to the
statements immediately after the body of the loop. If the break statements is inside a nested
loop (loop inside another loop), the break statement will terminate the innermost loop.

Example – Usage break in a while loop

In this example, the while loop continues as long as num is less than 5. Inside the loop, num
is printed, and then it is checked whether num is equal to 3. If the condition is true, the break
statement is executed, and the loop terminates

PYTHON CONTINUE STATEMENT

The continue statement is used to skip the rest of the code inside a loop for the current
iteration only. Loop does not terminate but continues on with the next iteration.

Example – Using continue in a while loop

In this example, the while loop continues as long as Num is less than 5. Inside the loop,
Num is incremented by 1. Then, it is checked whether Num is equal to 2. If the condition is

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

true, the continue statement is executed, and the loop skips the remaining code block for
that iteration. Otherwise, the value of Num is printed.

 FOR LOOP
For loop is usually known as determinate or definite loop because the programmer knows
exactly how many times the loop will repeat. The number of times loop has to be
executed can be determined mathematically checking logic of the loop. The flow chart of
for loop is shown in figure 16.
Syntax
For loop_control_var in sequence:
Statement 1
Statement 2

SAMPLE PROGRAM

 Program using for loop to check whether the number is even or odd

Each number from 1 to 10 is printed along with whether it is odd or even. Odd numbers have
a remainder of 1 when divided by 2, while even numbers have a remainder of 0.

NESTED LOOPS

Nested loops in Python refer to using one or more loops inside another loop. This allows you
to iterate over a sequence of elements or perform a certain operation multiple times, with one
loop contained within another loop.

The basic syntax for a nested loop in Python is as follows:

for outer_loop_variable in outer_sequence:

# Code block for Outer loop

for inner_loop_variable in inner_sequence:

# Code block for inner loop

Nested loops are commonly used when dealing with multi-dimensional data structures, such
as lists of lists or matrices, or when you need to perform a repetitive task that involves
multiple levels of iteration.

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

Example – Simple example of a nested loop to print a pattern

In this example, the outer loop (for i in range (5)) iterates over the rows, and the inner
loop which (for j in range (i + 1)) iterates over the columns for each row. This results in a
pattern where the number of asterisks increases with each row.

4. FUNCTIONS

INTRODUCTION

 A function is a block of organised and reusable program code that performs a simple,
specific, and well-defined task.
 Func (1) is called to perform a well-defined task. As soon as Func (1) is called, the
program control is passed to first statement in function. All the statements in function are
executed and program control is passed to function following the one that called the
function.

FUNCTION CALLING ANOTHER FUNCTION

 Func (1) calls function named Func (2). Therefore Func (1) is known as calling function.
 Func (2) is known as function.

NOTE: Func (1) calls as many functions as it wants.

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

IV.1 NEED FOR FUNCTIONS

 Dividing the program into separate functions facilitates each function to be written and
tested separately.
 Understanding, coding and testing multiple separate functions are far easier than the
doing same for one huge function.
 If a big program is done without functions, then there will be a large line of codes and
maintaining it is a big mess.
 All libraries in python contains predefined and pre-tested functions which the
programmer can use them directly.
 When a big program is broken into smaller functions different programmers working on
that project can divide the workload.
 Code reuse is one of the most prominent reasons to use the functions.

IV.2 BUILT-IN MATH FUNCTIONS

Python provides a built-in math module that contains a variety of mathematical

functions for performing common mathematical operations. Here are some of the most used
math functions available in Python:

 abs(x): Returns the absolute value of x.

 pow (x, y) or x ** y: Returns x raised to the power of y.
 sqrt(x): Returns the square root of x.
 exp(x): Returns the exponential value of x (e^x).
 log(x): Returns the natural logarithm of x (base e).
 log10(x): Returns the base-10 logarithm of x.
 sin(x), cos(x), tan(x): Returns the trigonometric sine, cosine, and tangent of x,
respectively. The input x is in radians.
 asin(x), acos(x), atan(x): Returns the inverse trigonometric sine, cosine, and tangent of
x, respectively. The result is in radians.
 degrees(x): Converts angle x from radians to degrees.
 radians(x): Converts angle x from degrees to radians.
 ceil(x): Returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to x (i.e., the ceiling of x).
 floor(x): Returns the largest integer less than or equal to x (i.e., the floor of x).

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 round(x): Returns x rounded to the nearest integer.

 gcd(x, y): Returns the greatest common divisor of two integers x and y.
 hypot(x, y): Returns the Euclidean norm, sqrt(xx + yy).

IV.3 FUNCTION ASPECTS

 The inputs that function takes are called as arguments or parameters.
 When a called function returns some results to calling function it is said to return result.
 The calling function may or may not pass parameters.
 Function Declaration is a declaration statement that identifies a function with its name,
list of arguments, and type of data it returns.
 Function Definition consists of a function header that identifiers the function, followed
by body of function containing executable code for that function.

FUNCTION DEFINITION

 Function blocks begin with the keyword def followed by the function name and
parentheses().
 Any input parameters or arguments should be placed within these parentheses().
 The first statement of a function can be an optional statement – the documentation
string of the function or docstring.
 The statement return [expression] exists a function, optionally passing back an
expression the caller. A return statement with no arguments is the same as return
None.

FUNCTION CALL

 The function call statement invokes the function.

 When a function is invoked the program control jumps to called functions to execute
statements that are part of a function.
 Once called function is executed the program control passes back to calling function.
 Function_name ().

5. FILES AND DATA STRUCTURES

INTRODUCTION
 File is a collection of data stored on a secondary storage device like hard disk.
 If working in a large software application where they process many data, then it cannot
expect those data to be stored in a variable as the variables are volatile in nature.
 Hence when it handles such situations, the role of files will come into the picture.
 As files are non-volatile in nature, the data will be stored permanently in a second device
like Hard Disk and using python it can handle the files in applications.

TYPES OF FILES

There are two types of files in Python. They are:

1) Binary file
2) Text file

BINARY FILE

Most of the files that visible in personal computer system are called binary files.

 Document Files - .pdf, .doc, .xls etc

 Image Files - .png, .jpg, .gif, .bmp etc
 Video Files - .mp4, .3gp, .mkv, .avi etc
 Audio Files - .mp3, .wav, .mka, .aac etc
 Database Files - .mdb, .accde, .frm, .sqlite etc
 Archive Files - .zip, .rar, .iso, .7z etc
 Executable Files - .exe, .dll, .class etc

All binary files follow a specific format. It can open some binary files in the normal text
editor but it cannot read the content present inside the file. That is because all the binary files
will be encoded in the binary format, which can be understood only by a computer or
machine.

For handling such binary files it can need a specific type of software to open it.

For Example – it needs Microsoft word software to open .doc binary files. Likewise, it need
a .pdf reader software to open .pdf binary files and it need a photo editor software to read the
image files and so on.

TEXT FILE

Text files do not have any specific encoding and it can be opened in normal text editor itself.

 Web Standards – html, XML, CSS, Java etc

 Source Code – C, apps, Js, Py, Java etc
 Documents – txt, tex, RTF etc
 Tabular Data – scv, tsv etc
 Configuration – ini, cfg, reg etc

5.1 PYTHON FILE HANDLING OPERATION

Most importantly there are four types of operations that handled by Python on files:

OPENING A FILE

 Python has an in-built function called open () to open a file.

 The open method returns a file object which is used to access the write, read and other in-
built methods.

SYNTAX

 File_object = open(file_name,mode)
 File_name is the name of the file or the location of the file that want to open.

MODE

 The file in the open function syntax will tell Python as what operation that what to do on
a file.
 ‘r’ – Read Mode : Read mode is used only to read data from the file.
 ‘w’ – Write Mode : This mode is used when it want to write data into a file or modify it.
Remember write mode overwrites the data present in the file.
 ‘s’ – Append Mode : Append mode is used to append data to the file. Remember data
will be appended at the end of the file pointer.

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 ‘r+’ – Read or Write Mode : This mode is used when it want to write or read the data
from the same file.
 ‘w+’ – Read or Write Mode : When a file is opened in this mode. If the file has not been
created new file will be created if created it is overwritten.
 ‘a+’ – Append or Read Mode : This mode is used when it want to read data from the
file or append the data into the same file.

BINARY MODE

 ‘wb’ – Open a file for write only mode in the binary format.
 ‘rb’ – Open a file for the read -only mode in the binary format.
 ‘ab’ – Open a file for appending only mode in the binary format.
 ‘rb+’- Open a file for read and write only mode in the binary format.
 ‘ab’ - Open a file for appending and read only mode in the binary format.

READ A FILE

 There are three ways in which we can read the files in python
 Read([n])
 Readline([n])
 Readlines()

Here, n is the number of bytes to be read.

Program to read specific line from a file

lineno=int(input(“enter a number”))

fp=open(“hello.txt”,”r”)

cufrentline=1

for line in fp:

if(currentline==lineno):

print(line)

break

PYTHON CLOSE A FILE:

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 In order to close a file, we must first open a file. In python, we have an in built method
called close() to close the file which is opened.
 Whenever you open a file, it is important to close it, especially, with write method.
Because if we don’t call the close function after the write method then whatever data we
have written to a file will not be saved in to the file.

Example

My_file= open(“C:/Documents/Pythhon/test.txt”, “r”)

Print(my_file.read())

My_file.close()

WRITE A FILE:

 In order to write data into a file, we must open the file in the write mode.
 We need to be very careful while writing data in to the file as it overwrites the content
present inside the file that you were writing, and all previous data will be erased.
 We have two methods for writing data into a file as shown below.
 Write(string)
 Writelines(list)

Write()

my_file=open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “w”)

my_file.write(“Hello World/n”)

my_file. Write(“Hello Python”)

Writelines()

 Fruits=[“Apple/n”, “Orange/n”, “Grapes/n”, “Watermelon”]

 My_file=open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “w”)
 My_file. Writelines(fruits)
 My_ file. Close()

PYTHON APPEND TO FILE:

My_file=open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “a+”)

My_file.write(“Strawberry”)

The above code appends the string ‘strawberry’ at the end of the ‘test.txt’file.

APPENDING A LIST OF DATA:

Fruits=[“ /n Banana”, “/n Avacado”, “/nFigs”, “/n Mango”]

My_file=open(“C:/Documents/Python/test.txt”, “w”)

My_file. Writelines(fruits)

The above code appends a list of data into a “test.txt” file.

FILE OBJECT ATTRIBUTES

ATTRIBUTES DESCRIPTION
Name Return name of file

6.1 INTRODUCTION

SQL, or Structured Query Language, is a powerful programming language used for

managing and manipulating relational databases. It provides a standardized way to interact
with databases, allowing users to perform tasks such as querying data, updating records, and
defining database structures. Originally developed in the 1970s by IBM, SQL has since
become the de facto standard language for relational database management systems
(RDBMS), including popular systems such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server,
Oracle Database, and SQLite, among others.

KEY ASPECTS

 Data Querying: SQL allows users to retrieve data from databases using queries. Queries
can range from simple requests for specific records to complex operations involving
multiple tables and conditions.
 Data Manipulation: SQL provides commands for inserting, updating, and deleting data
within a database. This allows users to modify existing records or add new ones as
needed.
 Database Definition: SQL includes commands for defining and managing database
structures such as tables, indexes, views, and stored procedures. These structures help
organize and optimize data storage and access.
 Data Control: SQL offers mechanisms for controlling access to databases and managing
user permissions. This ensures that only authorized users can view or modify sensitive
data.
 Data Integrity: SQL supports the enforcement of data integrity constraints such as
primary keys, foreign keys, and unique constraints. These constraints help maintain the
consistency and reliability of data within a database.
 Transaction Control: SQL provides features for managing database transactions,
allowing users to group multiple database operations into atomic units of work. This
ensures that either all operations within a transaction are completed successfully or none
of them are, maintaining data consistency.

6.2 IMPORTANCE OF SQL

 Decision Making: Data-driven decision making relies on analysing data to make

informed choices, whether in business strategy, healthcare, or other fields.
 Business Insights: Data can provide valuable insights into customer behaviour, market
trends, and operational efficiency, helping businesses optimize their strategies.
 Predictive Analysis: By analysing historical data, organizations can make predictions
about future trends and outcomes, aiding in planning and risk management.
 Personalization: Data allows businesses to personalize products, services, and marketing
efforts to better meet the needs and preferences of individual customers.
 Performance Monitoring: Monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs) through data
analysis helps organizations track progress towards goals and identify areas for
improvement.

6.3 TYPES OF DATA

 Structured Data: This type of data has a predefined data model or is organized in a
tabular format with a clear schema, making it easy to query and analyze. Examples
include data in relational databases or spreadsheets.
 Unstructured Data: Unstructured data lacks a predefined data model and is not
organized in a structured manner. Examples include text documents, images, audio files,
and videos. Analysing unstructured data often requires specialized tools and techniques
such as natural language processing (NLP) or computer vision.
 Semi-Structured Data: Semi-structured data falls somewhere between structured and
unstructured data. It may have a flexible schema or tags that provide some structure, but it
does not fit neatly into a relational database. Examples include JSON, XML, and log files.
 Transactional Data: Transactional data records specific events or transactions, typically
in a structured format. Examples include sales transactions, financial transactions, and log
entries.
 Temporal Data: Temporal data includes information related to time, such as timestamps
or time-series data. It is commonly used in applications where the temporal aspect is
important, such as IoT (Internet of Things) devices, financial markets, and weather
forecasting.

6.4 DATA TYPES

In SQL, data types define the type of data that can be stored in a column of a table or
used as variables within SQL statements. Different database management systems (DBMS)
may support slightly different sets of data types, but there are common types found across
most SQL implementations.

Here is an overview of common data types and their categories:

1) NUMERIC DATA TYPE

 INTEGER/INT: Stores whole numbers, typically within a specified range.

 SMALLINT: Like INTEGER but with a smaller range.
 BIGINT: Like INTEGER but with a larger range.
 DECIMAL/NUMERIC: Stores fixed-point numbers with exact precision.
 FLOAT/REAL: Stores approximate numeric values with floating-point precision.
 DOUBLE PRECISION: Like FLOAT but with double precision.

2) CHARACTER STRING DATA TYPES:

 CHAR(n): Fixed-length character strings with a specified length 'n'.

 VARCHAR(n): Variable-length character strings with a maximum length 'n'.
 TEXT: Variable-length character strings with no specified maximum length (often used
for large text data).

3) BINARY DATA TYPES:

 BINARY(n): Fixed-length binary strings with a specified length 'n'.

 VARBINARY(n): Variable-length binary strings with a maximum length 'n'.
 BLOB: Variable-length binary strings with no specified maximum length (often used for
large binary data).

4) DATE AND TIME DATA TYPES:

 DATE: Stores date values in the format YYYY-MM-DD.

 TIME: Stores time values in the format HH:MM: SS.
 DATETIME/TIMESTAMP: Stores both date and time values.
 INTERVAL: Represents a time interval.

5) BOOLEAN DATA TYPE:

 BOOLEAN/BOOL: Stores true or false values.

6) ENUMERATION DATA TYPES:

 lOMoARcPSD|45929297

 ENUM: Represents a set of predefined values.

7) OTHER DATA TYPES:

 ARRAY: Stores an array of values.

 JSON: Stores JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data.
 XML: Stores XML (extensible Markup Language) data.
 GEOMETRY/GEOGRAPHY: Stores spatial data for geographic information systems
(GIS).

6.5 INSTALLATION OF SQL

1) Download MySQL Installer: Visit the MySQL website and download the MySQL
Installer for your operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux).
2) Run Installer: Locate the downloaded installer file and double-click it to run the
installer.
3) Choose Installation Type: Select your preferred installation type (e.g., "Developer
Default" for standard development setup) and click "Next".
4) Configure MySQL Server: Set the root password for MySQL Server and choose a port
number for MySQL to listen on.
5) Complete Installation: Wait for the installer to finish installing components and
configuring MySQL Server.

6.6 CREATION OF TABLES, DATABASE, INSERTING VALUES

 Creating Table – Syntax

CREATE TABLE table_name(column_name data_type);

EXAMPLE

CREATE TABLE Student(Student id int, Student_name varchar2(30), Student_DOB date,

Student_age int):

 Inserting values into the table – syntax

INSERT INTO table name VALUES (value1,value2.....);

EXAMPLE

INSERT INTO Student values (1,’Rahul’, ’31-AUG-1998’, 24);

6.7 SELECT, WHERE, PROJECTION AND SELECTION

1) SELECT – The SELECT statement in SQL is used to retrieve data from table in a
database.

Syntax - SELECT column1, column2,...FROM table... name;

Example - SELECT first_name, last_name, salary FROM employees:

2) WHERE - The WHERE clause is used to filter rows based on a specified condition. It
allows you to retrieve only the rows that meet the specified criteria

Syntax - SELECT column1,column2,... name where conditions

Example - select” from employees where employee_ name=’sahana’;

3) PROJECTION - a query retrieves specific columns from a table

Example - select employee_ name from employees

4) SELECTION - a selection query filters rows from a table based on specific conditions

Example - select’ employees where employee _ name = ‘sahana’;

6.8 CASE SENSITIVITY

 SQL command (e.g., SELECT, INSERT) are not case – sensitive.

 SQL keywords (e.g., SELECT, FROM, WHERE) are not case – sensitive.
 Data is not case-sensitive. For example, ‘Hello’ and ‘hello’ are considered as equivalent
values.
 Column names are not case-sensitive.
 Table names are not case-sensitive.

6.9 OPERATORS

SQL operators are used to perform operations on data in SQL queries. These are the
basic syntax patterns for using common SQL operators in queries. Keep in mind that the
exact syntax may vary slightly depending on the SQL dialect or database management system
you're using.

Here is a summary of some common SQL operators:

ARITHMETIC OPERATORS:

 + (Addition): Adds two values.

 - (Subtraction): Subtracts one value from another.
 (Multiplication): Multiplies two values.
 / (Division): Divides one value by another.
 % (Modulo): Returns the remainder of a division operation.

COMPARISON OPERATORS:

 = (Equal to): Tests if two values are equal.

 or != (Not equal to): Tests if two values are not equal.
 < (Less than): Tests if one value is less than another.
 (Greater than): Tests if one value is greater than another.
 <= (Less than or equal to): Tests if one value is less than or equal to another.
 >= (Greater than or equal to): Tests if one value is greater than or equal to another.
