# Python-Lectures
Note: [Andreas Ernst](http://users.monash.edu/~andrease/) has improvised and updated the repo to python 3, [Link](https://gitlab.erc.monash.edu.au/andrease/Python4Maths/tree/master)
## Introduction
Python is a modern, robust, high level programming language. It is very easy to pick up even if you are completely new to programming.
## Installation
Mac OS X and Linux comes pre installed with python. Windows users can download python from https://www.python.org/downloads/ .
To install IPython run,
$ pip install ipython[all]
This will install all the necessary dependencies for the notebook, qtconsole, tests etc.
### Installation from unofficial distributions
Installing all the necessary libraries might prove troublesome. Anaconda and Canopy comes pre packaged with all the necessary python libraries and also IPython.
#### Anaconda
Download Anaconda from https://www.continuum.io/downloads
Anaconda is completely free and includes more than 300 python packages. Both python 2.7 and 3.4 options are available.
#### Canopy
Download Canopy from https://store.enthought.com/downloads/#default
Canopy has a premium version which offers 300+ python packages. But the free version works just fine. Canopy as of now supports only 2.7 but it comes with its own text editor and IPython environment.
## Launching IPython Notebook
From the terminal
ipython notebook
In Canopy and Anaconda, Open the respective terminals and execute the above.
## How to learn from this resource?
You can download the pdf copy from here : [Get Started with Python](https://github.com/rajathkumarmp/Python-Lectures/blob/master/Python.pdf)
It is better to download all the ipython notebooks from this repository https://github.com/rajathkumarmp/Python-Lectures and learn it on the notebook itself rather than having to refer to a pdf.
Launch ipython notebook from the folder which contains the notebooks. Open each one of them
Cell > All Output > Clear
This will clear all the outputs and now you can understand each statement and learn interactively.
