UNIT -1
INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER SYSTEM
A computer is an electronic device, under the control of instructions stored in its memory that can
accept data (input), process the data according to specified rules(Program) on processor & produces
information (output), and store the information for future use.
Data vs Information
Data are raw numbers or other findings which, by themselves, are of limited value.Information is data
that has been converted into a meaningfuland useful context.Computers are being used extensively
nowadays in
everyday life/every field
In the form of laptop, desktop, smartphone,gadgets etc.
Advantages of computer
• Speed
• Accuracy
• Huge storage
• Versatility
• Tirelessness
Disadvantages of computer
• Data security issue
• Computer crimes
• Health risk
• Bad impact on environment if not properly disposed off
Computer Components Any kind of computers consists of HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE.

Hardware: Computer hardware is the collection of physical elements/parts that constitutes a computer
system,such as the monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, hard drive disk (HDD), system
unit (graphic cards, sound cards, memory, motherboard and chips), etc. all of which are physical objects
& can be touched.
Software :Software is a generic term for organized collections of computer data and instructions,often
broken into two major categories: system software that provides the basic nontask- specific functions of
the computer, and application software which is used byusers to accomplish specific tasks.
Functional components of a computer
Central processing unit – Comprises three parts

1. Arithmetic/Logic Unit
Performs basic arithmetic operations such as addition and subtraction Performs logical operations
such as AND, OR, and NOT. Most modern ALUs have a small amount of special storage units called
registers that can be accessed faster than main memory.
2. Control unit
It organizes the computer to work computer as single unit & generates control signals for various
devices regarding read/write or execute operation
3. Memory
A collection of cells, each with a u Most computers are byte-addressable
Memory Units – How much memory is required for a file/data/progam etc. is measured by memory
units. Following are the memory units.
Memory Types
Primary Memory
Random Access Memory (RAM) - is a type of volatile memory that is stores information on an
integrated circuit which hold the data mainly when the program is being executed by the CPU. As it is
volatile in nature so it can't store data permanently.
Read Only Memory (ROM) - a non-volatile memory chip in which data are stored permanently, and
can not be altered by
Cache Memory - is the volatile computer memory which is very nearest to the CPU,so also called CPU
memory, and is between CPU and RAM all the Recent Instructions are Stored into the Cache Memory. It
is the fastest memory that provides high-speed data access to a computer microprocessor.
Secondary Storage Devices

A hard disk is a set of stacked disks. Each disk has data recorded electromagnetically in concentric
circles, or tracks, on the disk Hard Drive Types
1. Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment (PATA)
2. Serial ATA (SATA)
3. Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)
4. Solid State Drives (SSD)
Upto 12 TB sized HDD is available in the market
Input Devices
Input devices can send data or information to a computer or another device.
Keyboard: It is an input device which sends data in to the computer. The data send depends on the
key pressed by the user.
Mouse: A mouse is a small handheld input device which controls a cursor in a graphical user interface.
It can move and select text, files, folders etc. on our computer according to the user input.
Scanner: Scanner optically reads and document, file or image and then changes it into digital signal
and sends to the computer.
OMR: optical mark recognition/ reader, is used to read marks on a document and send them
tocomputer.
OCR: OCR stands for optical character Recognition, is an input device which reads printed text and
sends that to computer.
MICR: Magnetic Ink Character Reader is an input device which generally finds application is banks to
process cheques.
Microphone: it receives audio generated by some input source and sends it to a computer. Webcam: it
sends the captured images to a computer.
Graphics Tablets: This input device is used to draw using hand.
Trackballs: an upside down mouse ,encased within a socket. Is a cursor control device. Barcode
reader: It is used to read the barcode of various items and feed the same to computer. Gamepad: Also
known as joy pad is the input controller for video games.
Joystick: these input devices are used to control video games.
Output Devices
A device that can receive data from computer or another device and create output with that data is
called output device. Examples of various output devices are as :
Monitor: A monitor is an output device that is responsible for receiving data from a computer and
displaying that information as text or images for users to see.
Speakers: Receives sound signal from a computer and then plays that sound signal and thus we hear
songs or music or any other audio.
Projector: Gets data from a computer and displays or projects the same information onto a screen or a
wall. Projector cannot directly accept data from a user and send that data to another device.
TYPES OF SOFTWARE
Software is an organized instructions/code written by programmers using any of various special
computer languages for specific purpose.
Types of software:
(1) System software: controls the basic functions of a computer & hides complexity of computer
system from user and application software. E.g. Operating System, Compiler, Interpret etc.
(2) Application software: It handles specialized/ common tasks a user wants to perform, such as
banking, hotel management, any data processing, word processing etc.
(3) Utility software: Which helps to manage, maintain and control computer resources. E.g. are
antivirus software, backup software
1) System software
OPERATING SYSTEM
An Operating System (OS) is a system program that controls and manages the computer
resources(resource manager) so that application software can run on it.
Example: Microsoft Windows, Solaris, Linux, MAC OS,Ubuntu, Apple’s i-Phone OS etc.
HOW OPERATING SYSTEM WORKS

In any computer or mobile device, the operating system can be termed as the back bone when it comes
to software. This is because it has to be there before other programs can be run.It works as a
middleman (interface) between machine and user.
At the simplest level, an operating system does two things:
• It manages the hardware resources of the computer system. These resources include such
things as the processor, memory, disk space, etc.
• It provides a stable, consistent way for applications to deal with the hardware without having to
know all the details of the hardware.
FUNCTIONS OF OPERATING SYSTEM

• Processor management
• Memory management
• Device management
• Storage management
• Application interface
• User interface
• Process management
• Process a program in execution is known as process
• Handling of multiple processes at a time is known as process management.
• Process States
TYPE OF OPERATING SYSTEM
* Single-User, Single Task Operating System:
These operating systems work on single task & single user at a time.E.g. DOS
* Single-User, Multi-Task Operating System:
These operating systems works on more than one task and process them concurrently at a
time.E.g. windows 95 or later version of windows
* Multiuser Operating System:
In these OS, multiple users are allowed to access the same data or information at a time via a network.
E.g. Unix,Linux,Windows7.
* Multiprocessing Operating System:
Here, a single process runs on two or more processors. All the processing and their management takes
place in a parallel way, hence this OS are also called as Parallel Processing. E.g. Linux, UNIX and
Windows 7.
* Embedded Operating System:
These are embedded in a device, which is located in ROM.E.g. OS of microwaves,washing
machine.
* Distributed Operating System:
In these OS, the computers work in co-operation with each other.
SYSTEM SOFTWARE/PROGRAMMING SOFTWARES

Language processor/Programming tool
As the computer understand machine language(0/1) where as Humans understand High level/Human
Lang. Language Processors does the conversion task(high level to machine lang.)
These are of 3 types Language processors
1. Compilers-It convert high-level language code to machine code in one session. It takes time
because it have to translate high-level code to lower-level machine language all at once and then save
the executable object code to memory.
2. Interpreters-It translates code like a compiler but reads the code and immediately executes that
code, and therefore it is faster than a compiler.
3. Assemblers-It translates an assembly language program into machine language. One-pass
assemblers go through the source code once. Any symbol used before it is defined will require "errata"
at the end of the object telling the linker or the loader to "go back" and overwrite a placeholder which
had been left where the as yet undefined symbol was used.
Multi-pass assemblers create a table with all symbols and their values in the first passes, then use the
table in later passes to generate code.
(2) Application software
* General Purpose application software
These are ready to use software for daily use purpose
e.g. word processor,spreadsheet,presention,DBMS etc.
* Specific Purpose application software Softwares which are designed for specific task
e.g. Payroll,HotelMgmt,HospitalMgmt,StockMgmt etc.
(3) Utility software/System Utilities
that assist OS in carrying out certain specialized tasks are called utility software.
Antivirus - An anti-virus scans the system for any virus and if detected, gets rid of it by deleting
or isolating it.
Compression tools - Compression tools are utilities that assist operating systems in shortening
files so that they take less space.
(3) Utility software/System Utilities
Disk Cleanup - Disk cleanup tools assist users in freeing up disk space.
Disk Defragmenter - Disk defragmenter is a disk management utility that increases file access
speeds by rearranging fragmented files on contiguous locations.
Backup - Backup utility enables backing up of files, folders, databases or complete disks.
File management tools - Utility software providing regular file management tasks like browse,
search, update, preview, etc. are called file management tools.
Restore – This utility restores the backup earlier taken.
Device driver or hardware driver is a group of files that enable one or more hardware devices
to communicate with the computer's operating system. Without drivers, the computer would not be
able to send and receive data correctly to hardware devices, such as a printer

Boolean Logic
Boolean Logic
Because of computer understands machine language(0/1) which is binary value so every operation is
done with the help of these binary value by the computer.
To understand boolean logic properly we have to understand Boolean logic rule,Truth table and logic
gates
Boolean Logic rules
Boolean Algebra is the mathematics we use to analyse digital gates and circuits. We can use these
“Laws of Boolean” to both reduce and simplify a complex Boolean expression in an attempt to reduce
the number of logic gates required.
A +1=1 Annulment
A +0=A Identity
A .1=A Identity
A.0 =0 Annulment
A +A=A Idempotent
A .A=A Idempotent
NOTA=A Double Negation
A +A =1 Complement
A .A =0 Complement
A+B=B+A Commutative
A.B =B.A Commutative
A+B =A.B deMorgan’sTheorem
A.B=A+B deMorgan’sTheorem
Boolean Expression
A Boolean expression is a logical statement that is either TRUE or FALSE .
A Boolean expression can consist of Boolean data, such as the following:
* BOOLEAN values (YES and NO, and their synonyms, ON and OFF, and TRUE and FALSE)
* BOOLEAN variables or formulas
* Functions that yield BOOLEAN results
De Morgan’s Law
The complement of the union of two sets is equal to the intersection of their complements and the
complement of the intersection of two sets is equal to the union of their complements. These are called
De Morgan’s laws.
For any two finite sets A and B
(i) (A+B)’=A’.B’
(ii) (A . B)’=A’+B’
Truth table
A truth table is a mathematical table used in logic. e.g.
Logic Gates
Logic gate is an idealized or physical device implementing a Boolean function. These are used to
construct logic circuit.
Universal gates are the logic gates which are capable of implementing any Boolean function without
requiring any other type of gate.
Types of Universal Gates-
In digital electronics, there are only two universal gates which are-
1. NAND Gate
2. NOR Gate
Number System & Encoding Schemes
In general term computer represent information in different types of data forms i.e. number , character
,picture ,audio , video etc.
Computers are made of a series of switches/ gates. Each switch has two states: ON(1) or OFF(0).That's
why computer works on the basis of binary number system(0/1).But for different purpose different
number systems are used in computer world to represent information. E.g. Octal, Decimal, Hexadecimal.
CONVERSIONS

BINARY TO OTHER
A)Multiply thedigit with 2(with place value exponent).Eventually add all the multiplication
becomes the Decimal number.
1. BINARY TODECIMAL
2. BINARY TO OCTAL
An easy way to convert from binary to octal is to group binary digits into sets of three, starting with
the least significant (rightmost)digits.
Binary:11100101 11 100 101
=
011 100 101 Pad the most significant digits with zeros
if necessary to complete a group of three.
Then,lookup each group in a table:
Binary: 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111
Octal: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Binary= 011 100 101
Octal = 3 4 5 = 345oct
3. BINARYTOHEXADECIMAL
An equally easy way to convert from binary to hexadecimal is to group binary digits into sets off
our,starting with the least significant (rightmost)digits.
Binary:11100101 =11100101
Then, lookup each group in a table:
Binary: 0000 0001 0010 0011 010 0101 0110 011

0 1
Hexadecimal: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Binary: 1000 1001 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111
Hexadecimal: 8 9 A B C D E F
Binary= 1110 0101
Hexadecimal= E 5 =E5 hex
OCTAL TO OTHER
1. OCTAL TO BINARY
Converting from octal to binary is as easy as converting from binary to octal. Simply lookup each
octal digit to obtain the equivalent group of three binary digits.
Octal: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Binary: 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111

Octal = 3 4 5
Binary= 011 100 101 =011100101binary
2. OCTALTOHEXADECIMAL
When converting from octal to hexadecimal, it is often easier to first convert the octal number
into binary and then from binary into hexadecimal. For example, to convert 345octal into hex:
(from the previous example)
Octal = 3 4 5
Binary= 011 100 101 =011100101binary
Drop any leading zeros or pad with leading zeros to get groups of four binary digits
(bits):Binary 011100101=11100101
3. OCTALTODECIMAL
The conversion can also be performed in the conventional mathematical way,by showing
each digit place as an increasing power of 8.
345 octal=(3*82) +(4 *81) +(5*80) =(3*64) +(4*8) + (5*1)=229decimal
HEXADECIMAL TO OTHER
1. HEXADECIMALTO BINARY
Converting from hexadecimal to binary is as easy as converting from binary to
hexadecimal.Simply lookup each hexadecimal digit to obtain the equivalent group off our
binary digits.
Hexadecimal: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Binary: 0000 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111
Hexadecimal: 8 9 A B C D E F
Binary: 1000 1001 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111

Hexadecimal A 2 D E
Binary= 1010 0010 1101 1110 10100010110

binary
2. HEXADECIMAL TO DECIMAL
Convert 42A.1216 into a decimal number. Solution-

The hexadecimal number given is 42 A.12
Positional weights 210-1-2
The positional weights for each of the digits are written in italics below each digit. Hence the
decimal equivalent number is given as:
4×162+2×161+10×161+1×16−1+1×16−2
=1024 +32 +10+0.0625 +0.00390625
=(1066.06640625)10
3. HEXADECIMALTOOCTAL
Given hexa decimalnumber is A 72E

Binary equivalent is 1010011100101110=1010011100101110
Forming groups of 3bits from the LSB 001 010011100101 110
Octal equivalent 1 23 45 6
Hence the octal equivalent of (𝐴72𝐸)16is (123456)8.
ENCODING SCHEMES
American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII)
In the early 1960s, computers had no way of communicating with each other due to different
ways of representing keys of the keyboard. Hence, the need for a common standard was realised
to overcome this shortcoming. Thus, encoding scheme ASCII was developed for standardising the
character representation. ASCII is still the most commonly used coding scheme.
Initially ASCII used7 bit store present characters. Recall that there are only binary
digits(0or1).Therefore, total number of different character son the English keyboard that can be
encoded by 7-bit ASCII code is 27 = 128. Following Table shows some printable characters for
ASCII code. But ASCII is able to encode character set of English language only.
Indian Script Code for Information Interchange(ISCII)
In order to facilitate the use of Indian languages on computers, a common standard for coding
Indian scripts called ISCII was developed in India during mid1980s.
It is an 8-bit code representation for Indian languages which means it can represent
28=256characters.It retainsall 128 ASCII codes and uses rest of the codes(128)for additional
Indian language character set. Additional codes have been assigned in the upper region (160–
255)for the ‘aksharas’ of the language.
UNICODE
There were many encoding schemes, for character sets of different languages. But they were not
able to communicate with each other, as each of them represented characters in their own ways.
Therefore, a standard called UNICODE has been developed to incorporate all the characters of
every written language of the world. Commonly used UNICODE encodings are UTF-8, UTF-16 and
UTF-32.

Getting Stating with Python
1. INTRODUCTION
• Computers are used for solving various day-to-day problems.

• It is pertinent to mention that computers themselves can not solve a problem.
• Precisestep-by-stepinstructionsshouldbegivenbyustosolvetheproblem.
• Thus, the success of a computer in solving a problem depends on how
correctly and precisely we define the problem, design a solution
(algorithm) and implement the solution (program) using a programming
language.
• Thus, problem solving is the process of identifying a problem, developing
an algorithm for the identified problem and finally implementing the
algorithm to develop a computer program.
2. Steps for ProblemSolving

There are four steps in problem solving
• Analysing the problem, Developing an Algorithm, Coding, Testing
and Debugging
2.1 Analysing the problem
• It is important to clearly understand a problem before we begin to find
the solution for it.
• If we are not clear as to what is to be solved,we may end up developing
a program which may not solve our purpose.
• By analysing a problem, we would be able to figure out what are
• the inputs that our program should accept and the outputs that it should
produce.
2.2 Developing an Algorithm

• The solution for a problem is represented in step by step procedure called
analgorithm.
• For a given problem, more than one algorithm is possible and we have to
select the most suitable solution.
2.3 Coding
• After finalising the algorithm, we need to convert the algorithm into the
format which can be understood by the computer to generate the
desired solution.
2.4 Testing and Debugging
• The program created should be tested on various parameters.
• The program should meet the requirements of the user.
• In the presence of syntactical errors, no output will be obtained.
• In case the output generated is in correct, then the program should be
checked for logical errors, if any.
3. Algorithm
Algorithm is the step by step procedure for solving the problem. Suppose following are
the steps required for an activity ‘riding a bicycle’:
• Remove the bicycle from the stand,
• Sit on the seat of the bicycle,
• Start peddling,
• Use breaks when ever needed and
• Stop on reaching the destination.
Example:
Algorithm to find square of anumber.
Step1: Input a number and store it to num
Step 2: Compute num * num and store
it in square
Step 3:Print square
3.1 Why do we need an Algorithm

• Writing an algorithm is mostly considered as a first step to programming.
• Once we have an algorithm to solve a problem, we can write the
computer program for giving instructions to the computer in high level
language.
• If the algorithm is correct, computer will run the program correctly, everytime.
• So, the purpose of using an algorithm is to increase the reliability,
accuracy and efficiency of obtaining solutions.
Characteristics of a good algorithm

• Precision—the steps are precisely stated or defined.
• Uniqueness—results of each step are uniquely defined and only
depend on the input and the result of the preceding steps.
• Finiteness—the algorithm always stops after a finite number of steps.
• Input—the algorithm receives some input.
• Output—the algorithm produces some output.
While writing an algorithm ,it is required to clearly identify the following:
• The input to be taken from the user
• Processing or computation to be performed to get the desired result
• The output desired by the user
4. Representation of Algorithms
There are two common methods of representing an algorithm —flowchart and
pseudocode. Either of the methods can be used to represent an algorithm while keeping
in mind the following:
• it show cases the logic of the problem solution, excluding any
implementational details
• it clearly reveals the flow of control during execution of the program
4.1 Flowchart —Visual Representation of Algorithms
• A flow chart is a visual representation of an algorithm.
• A flowchart is a diagram made up of boxes, diamonds and other shapes,
connected by arrows.
Flow chart to calculate square of a number
4.2 Pseudocode
A pseudocode (pronounced Soo-doh-kohd) is another way of representing an algorithm. It is considered as
a non-formal language that helps programmers to write algorithm. The word“pseudo” means “not real,” so
“pseudocode” means “not real code”. Following are some of the frequently used keywords while writing
pseudocode:
• INPUT/•COMPUTE/•PRINT/•INCREMENT/•DECREMENT
• IF/ELSE,•WHILE,•TRUE/FALSE
Example:
Pseudo code for the sum of two numbers will be:
Input num1
input num2
COMPUTE Result = num1 + num2
PRINT Result
4.3 Coding
• Once analgorithm is finalised,it should be coded in ahigh-level
programming language as selected by the programmer.
• The ordered set of instructions are written in that programming language
by following its syntax.
• Syntax is the set of rules or grammar that governs the formulation of the
statements in the language,such as spellings,order of words,
punctuation,etc.
4.4 Decomposition
• The basic idea of solving a complex problem by decomposition is to
'decompose' or break down a complex problem into smaller sub problems.

and smallest of them.
PYTHON PROGRAMMING FUNDAMENTAL:
5.1.1 Features of Python
• Python is a high level language. It is a free and open source language.

• It is an interpreted language, as Python programs are executed by an interpreter.
• Python programs are easy to understand as they have a clearly defined syntax and relatively simple
structure.
• Python is case-sensitive. For example, NUMBER and number are not same in Python.
• Python is portable and platform independent, means it can run on various operating systems and
hardware platforms.
• Python has a rich library of predefined functions.
• Python uses indentation for blocks and nested blocks.
How to Install Python

• Python is pre-installed on most Unix systems, including Linux and MAC OS X
• The pre-installed version may not be the most recent one (2.6.2 and 3.1.1 as of Sept 09)
• Download from http://python.org/download/
• Python comes with a large library of standard modules
• There are several options for an IDE
IDLE – works well with Windows
IDLE (Integrated Development Environment)
• IDLE is an Integrated DeveLopment Environment for Python, typically used on Windows
• Multi-window text editor with syntax highlighting, auto-completion, smart indent and other.
• Python shell with syntax highlighting.
• Integrated debugger with stepping, persistent breakpoints,
and call stack visibility
5.1.2 Working with Python
To write and run (execute) a Python program, we need to have a Python interpreter installed on our
computer or we can use any online Python interpreter. The interpreter is also called Python shell. A
sample screen of Python interpreter is shown in Figure:
In the above screen, the symbol >>> is the Python prompt, which indicates that the interpreter is
ready to take instructions. We can type commands or statements on this prompt to execute them
using a Python interpreter.
5.1.3 Execution Modes
There are two ways to use the Python interpreter:

a) Interactive mode
b) Script mode
Interactive mode allows execution of individual statement instantaneously. Whereas, Script mode
allows us to write more than one instruction in a file called Python source code file that can be executed.
(A) Interactive Mode
To work in the interactive mode, we can simply type a Python statement on the >>> prompt directly.
As soon as we press enter, the interpreter executes the statement and displays the result(s), as shown in
Figure:
Working in the interactive mode is convenient for testing a single line code for instant execution. But
in the interactive mode, we cannot save the statements for future use and we have to retype the
statements to run them again.
(B) Script Mode
In the script mode, we can write a Python program in a file, save it and then use the interpreter to
execute it. Python scripts are saved as files where file name has extension “.py”. By default, the Python
scripts are saved in the Python installation folder. To execute a script, we can either:
a) Type the file name along with the path at the prompt. For example, if the name of the file is prog5-
1.py, we type prog5-1.py. We can otherwise open the program directly from IDLE.
b) While working in the script mode, after saving the file, click [Run]->[Run Module] from the menu
as shown in Figure below.
c) The output appears on shell as shown in figure below:
Program 5-1 Write a program to show print statement in script mode.
Basic DataTypes:
• Integers (default for numbers)- Number without decimal point
z=5/2 # Answer 2.5, integer division
• Floats : Number with decimal Point
x = 3.456
• Strings -
Can use “” or ‘’ to specify with “abc” == ‘abc’
Use triple double-quotes for multi-line strings or strings than contain both ‘ and “ inside of
them:
“““a‘b“c”””
Comments :
• Comments are very important while writing a program. It describes what's going
on inside a program so that a person looking at the source code does not have a
hard time figuring it out.
• In Python, we use the hash (#) symbol to start writing a comment.
• If we have comments that extend multiple lines, one way of doing it is to use hash
(#) in the beginning of each line.
• For example:
#This is a long comment

#and it extends
#to multiple lines
• Another way of doing this is to use triple quotes, either ''' or """.
• These triple quotes are generally used for multi-line strings. But they can be used
as multi-line comment as well.
"""This is also a
perfect example of
multi-line comments"""
Assignment :
• Binding a variable in Python means setting a name to hold a reference to some object
Assignment creates references, not copies
• Names in Python do not have an intrinsic type, objects have types
Python determines the type of the reference automatically based on what data is assigned to
it
• You create a name the first time it appears on the left side of an assignment expression:
x=3
• A reference is deleted via garbage collection after any names bound to it have passed out of
scope
• Python uses reference semantics (more later)
• You can assign to multiple names at the same time
>>> x, y = 2, 3
>>> x
2
>>> y
3
• This makes it easy to swap values
>>> x, y = y, x
• Assignments can be chained
>>> a = b = x = 2
Python keywords
Reserved words in the library of a language.There are 3 3keywords in python.
All the keywords are in lowercase except 03 keywords(True, False, None)
Identifier
• An identifier is a name given to entities like class, functions, variables, etc.

• It helps to differentiate one entity from another.
Rules for naming Identifier :
• Identifiers can be a combination of letters in lowercase (a to z) or uppercase (A

to Z) or digits (0 to 9) or an underscore _.
• Names like myClass, var_1 and print_this_to_screen, all are valid example.
• An identifier cannot start with a digit. 1variable is invalid, but variable1 is
perfectly fine.
• Keywords cannot be used as identifiers.
• We cannot use special symbols like !, @, #, $, % etc. in our identifier.
bob Bob _bob _2_bob_ bob_2 BoB
• There are some reserved words:
and, assert, break, class, continue, def, del, elif, else, except, exec, finally, for, from, global,
if, import, in, is, lambda, not, or, pass, print, raise, return, try, while
Program : Write a program to display values of variables in Python.
#To display value of variable

message = "hello"
print(message)
)
Output:
Hello
Program : Write a Python program to find the area of a rectangle given that its length is 10 units and
breadth is 20 units.
#To find the area of a rectangle

length = 10
breadth = 20
area = length * breadth
print(“Area of Rectangle=”, area)
Output: 200
Do it yourself:
1. Write a Python program to find the sum and subtract of two numbers
2. Find the simple interest. Principle amount, rate of interest and time given by user.
Constants
• A constant is a type of variable whose value cannot be changed.
• It is helpful to think of constants as containers that hold information which cannot be changed
later.
Literals
• Literals
• Literal is a raw data given in a variable or constant. In Python, there are various types of
literals they are as follows:
• Numeric Literals
• Numeric Literals are immutable (unchangeable). Numeric literals can belong to 3
different numerical types Integer, Float and Complex.
• a = 0b1010 #Binary Literals
• b = 100 #Decimal Literal
• c = 0o310 #Octal Literal
• d = 0x12c #Hexadecimal Literal
• #Float Literal
• float_1 = 10.5
• float_2 = 1.5e2
• #Complex Literal
• x = 3.14j
• print(a, b, c, d)
• print(float_1, float_2)
• print(x, x.imag, x.real)
OUTPUT
10 100 200 300
10.5 150.0
3.14j 3.14 0.0
Python Data Types

Built-in Data Types
In programming, data type is an important concept. Variables can store data of different types, and
different types can do different things. Python has the following data types built-in by default, in
these categories:
Str
Numeric Types: int, float, complex
Sequence Types: list, tuple, range
Mapping Type: dict
Set Types: set, frozen set
Boolean Type: bool

Binary Types: bytes, byte array, memory view
Let us now try to execute few statements in interactive mode to determine the data type of the
variable using built-in function type().
Example :
>>> num1 = 10
>>> type(num1)
<class 'int'>
>>> num2 = -1210
>>> type(num2)
<class 'int'>
>>> var1 = True
>>> type(var1)
<class 'bool'>
Operators
An operator is used to perform specific mathematical or logical operation on values. The values that
the operators work on are called operands. For example, in the expression 10 + num, the value 10, and
the variable num are operands and the + (plus) sign is an
operator. Python supports several kinds of operators whose categorisation is briefly explained in this
section
Python divides the operators in the following groups:
• Arithmetic operators
• Assignment operators
• Comparison operators
• Logical operators
• Identity operators
• Membership operators
Concatenation
Concatenating means obtaining a new string that contains both of the original strings. In Python, there
are a few ways to concatenate or combine strings. The new string that is created is referred to as a
string object. In order to merge two strings into a single object, you may use the + operator.
For Example
>>>”CBSE “+”India”
Output is CBSEIndia
Replication. : The multiplication operator acts as a replication operator when we have one string
and one integer as operands. What is replication? First, understand the meaning of the word
replication.
>>>”CBSE” 3
Output is CBSECBSECBSE
Statement
In Python, a statement is a unit of code that the Python interpreter can execute.
Example
>>> x = 4 #assignment statement
>>> cube = x ** 3 #assignment statement
>>> print (x, cube) #print statement
4 64
• Multi-line statement
In Python, end of a statement is marked by a newline character. But we can make a statement
extend over multiple lines with the line continuation character (\).
For example:
a=1+2+3+\
4+5+6+\
7+8+9
Input and Output
Sometimes, a program needs to interact with the user’s to get some input data or information from
the end user and process it to give the desired output. In Python, we
have the input() function for taking the user input. The input() function prompts the user to enter data.
It accepts all user input as string. The user may enter a number or a string but the input() function treats
them as strings only. The syntax for input() is:
input ([Prompt])
Example
>>>fname = input("Enter your first name: ")
Enter your first name: Arnab
>>> age = input("Enter your age: ")

Enter your age: 19
>>> type(age)
<class 'str'>
Example
#function int() to convert string to integer

>>> age = int( input("Enter your age:"))
Enter your age: 19

>>> type(age)
<class 'int'>
Example
Statement Output
print("Hello") Hello
print(10*2.5) 25.0
print("I" + "love" + "my" + "country") Ilovemycountry
print("I'm", 16, "years old") I'm 16 years old
More Examples:
print(1,2,3,4)
# Output: 1 2 3 4
print(1,2,3,4,sep='*')
# Output: 1*2*3*4
print(1,2,3,4,sep='#',end='&')
# Output: 1#2#3#4&
Type Conversion
The process of converting a Python data type into another data type is known as type conversion.
There are mainly two types of type conversion methods in Python: implicit type conversion and explicit
type conversion
Explicit Conversion
Explicit conversion, also called type casting happens when data type conversion takes place because
the programmer forced it in the program. The general form of an explicit data type conversion is:
(new_data_type) (expression)
With explicit type conversion, there is a risk of loss of information since we are forcing an expression
to be of a specific type. For example, converting a floating value of x = 20.67 into an integer type, i.e.,
int(x) will discard the fractional part .67. Following are some of the functions in Python that are used
for explicitly converting an expression or a variable to a different type.
Explicit type conversion functions in Python
Function Description
int(x) Converts x to an integer
float(x) Converts x to a floating-point number
str(x) Converts x to a string representation
chr(x) Converts x to a character
Program of explicit type conversion from int to float.
#Explicit type conversion from int to float
num1 = 10
num2 = 20
num3 = num1 + num2
print(num3)
print(type(num3))
num4 = float(num1 + num2)
print(num4)
print(type(num4))
Output:
30
<class 'int'>
30.0
<class 'float'>
Implicit Conversion
Implicit conversion, also known as coercion, happens when data type conversion is done
automatically by Python and is not instructed by the programmer.
Program to show implicit conversion from int to float.

#Implicit type conversion from int to float
num1 = 10 #num1 is an integer
num2 = 20.0 #num2 is a float
sum1 = num1 + num2 #sum1 is sum of a float and an integer
print(sum1)
print(type(sum1))
Output:
30.0
<class 'float'>

1. Write a Python program to convert temperature in degree Celsius to degree Fahrenheit. If water
boils at 100 degree C and freezes as 0 degree C, use the program to find out what is the boiling
point and freezing point of water on the Fahrenheit scale.
(Hint: T(°F) = T(°C) × 9/5 + 32)
2. Write a Python program to calculate the amount payable if money has been lent on simple
interest. Principal or money lent = P, Rate of interest = R% per annum and Time = T years.P,R,T
are given by user. Then Simple Interest (SI) = (P x R x T)/ 100.

4. Write a program to enter two integers and perform all arithmetic operations on them.
5. Write a program to swap two numbers using a third variable.
6. Write a program to swap two numbers without using a third variable.

DEBUGGING
Errors occurring in programs can be categorized as:
i) Syntax error
ii) Logical error
iii) Run Time error
Syntax Errors
Python has its own rules that determine its syntax. The interpreter
interprets the statements only if it is syntactically (as per the rules of
Python) correct. For example, parentheses must be in pairs, so the
expression (10 + 12) is syntactically correct, whereas (7 + 11 is not due
to absence of right parenthesis. Such errors need to be removed before
the execution of the program
Logical Errors
Logical errors are also called semantic errors as they occur when the
meaning of the program (its semantics) is not correct.For example, if
we wish to find the average of two numbers 10 and 12 and we write
the code as 10 + 12/2, it would run successfully and produce the result
16. Surely, 16 is not the average of 10 and 12. The correct code to find
the average should have been (10 + 12)/2 to give the correct output as
11.
Runtime Error
A runtime error causes abnormal termination of program while it is

executing. Runtime error is when the statement is correct syntactically,
but the interpreter cannot execute it. Runtime errors do not appear
until after the program starts running or executing.
Flow of Control
Sequential flow : In sequential flow instructions of a program are executed

one after the another
Conditional Flow : In Conditional flow , flow of control of instructions in a
program are changed based on a condition.
Iterative Flow : In iterative flow , a set of instructions are executed repeatedly
based on a certain condition
Flow control statements are used to control the flow of e x e c u t i o n depending
upon the specified condition/logic.
There are three types of control statements.

Decision Making Statements /If control statement
Iteration Statements(Loop control statement, for, while)
Jump Statements(break,continue)
Decision Making Statements /If control statement
Decision making statement used to control the flow of execution of

program depending upon condition.
Types of decision making statement.
1. If statements
2. if-else statements
3. if-else-elif ladder
if statements
An if statement is a programming conditional statement that, if proved true,
performs a function or displays information.
Syntax
if <condition>:
Statement(s)
Example:
a=2
b=3
if a < b :
print(‘a is greater’)
Output : a is greater
if-else statement
The statements inside the if block are executed only when condition is True,
otherwise the statements in the else block are executed.
Syntax
if <condition>:
Statement(s)
else:
statements
Flow Chart
Example:
a=5
b=6
if a < b :
print(‘b is greater’)
else:
print(‘a is greater’)
Output : b is greater
if elif statement
The if...elif...else statement allows you to check for multiple test expressions and execute
different codes for more than two conditions.
FlowChart
Example :
if 51<5:
print("False, statement skipped")
elif 6<5:
print("False, statement skipped")
elif 0<3:
print("true, block will execute")
else:
print("If all fails.")
output : true, block will execute
48
Iteration statements
Iteration statements(loop) are used to execute a block of statements as long as the condition
is true.
Python Iteration (Loops) statements are of three type:-
1. while Loop
2. for Loop
WHILE LOOP
It is used to execute a block of statement if a given condition is true. And when the
condition become false, the control will come out of the loop. The condition is checked
every time at the beginning of the loop.
Syntax
while(condition) :
[statement]
Example :
count =0
while(count <2):
count=count +1
print("Hello")
Output : Hello
Hello
FOR LOOP
It is used to iterate over items of any sequence, such as a list or a string.

Syntax
for val in sequence: #here val will take value of each element in the sequence
statements
49
Example:
for i in [1,2,3,4,5]:
print(i*5)
OUTPUT:
5
10
15
20

range() Function
This function generates a sequence of numbers based on the parameters passed.
Parameters
start: Starting number of the sequence.
stop: Generate numbers up to, but not including this number.
step(Optional): Determines the increment between each numbers in the sequence.
Python use range() function in three ways:
a. range(stop) : By default, It starts from 0 and increments by 1 and ends upto
stop, but not including stop value.
fori inrange(5):
print(i, end=" ")
Output : 0 1 2 3 4
b.range(start,stop) : It starts from the start value and upto stop, but not
including stop value.
fori inrange(5, 10):
print(i, end=" ")
Output : 5 6 7 8 9
c. range(start,stop,step): Third parameter specifies to increment or decrement the
value by adding or subtracting the value.
fori inrange(0, 10, 2):
print(i, end=" ")
Output : 0 2 4 6 8
BREAK STATEMENT
It is used to terminate the loop.
50
Example
for val in "string":
if val == "i":
break
print(val, end=””)
print("The end")
Output: s t r The end
CONTINUE STATEMENT
• Used to skip the rest of the statements of the current loop block and to move
to next iteration, of the loop.
• Continue will return back the control to the beginning of the loop.
Example
for letter in ‘Python’:
if letter == ‘h’:
continue
print (letter)
Output
Pyton
Nested Loops
Nested loops mean loops inside a loop. For example, while loop inside the for loop, for loop
inside the for loop, etc.

Syntax Error Logical Error

Syntax Errors occur when we violate the Logical Errors occur due to our
rules of writing the statements of the mistakes in programming logic.
programming language.
Program fails to compile and execute. Program compiles and executes but
doesn't give the desired output.
Syntax Errors are caught by the compiler. Logical errors need to be found and
corrected by people working on the
program.
Example : print(“hello) . closing ” is missing Example : average=a+b/2 gives
incorrect value for average of a and b
.
Q6. Differentiate between Syntax Error and Logical Error with Example.

Strings are immutable. Various string operations are as follows:-
Operators Syntax Description

+ ( Concatenation) Str1+Str2 Adds or join two or more strings
*(Repetition) Str*3 *operator creates a new string by
repeating multiple copies of the same
string.
in/not in ‘M’ in ‘Mumbai’ Returns true if character exist in given the
(Membership) ‘M’ not in ‘mumbai’ string and return false if the given
character does not exist in the string
[:] (range(start, stop, Str[1:8:2] Extracts the characters from the given
step) range or to extract a subset of values.
[ ] Slice[n:m] Str[ 2:7] Extracts the characters from the given
index
Traversing a String for i in range(len(str)): iterate through the elements of a
string,one character at a time.
String Methods and Built-in functions:

start, end) the given substring, and False
otherwise.
partition() str.partition(separator) It splits a given string into three parts
based on the first occurrence of a
specified separator. It returns a tuple
containing the three parts: the portion
before the separator, the separator
itself, and the portion after the
separator.
join() It is used to concatenate elements
separator.join(iterable) from an iterable (like a list or tuple)
into a single string, with a specified
separator between each element.

Reason(R) : Unlike numbers , for strings , + means concatenation and * means
replication.
17 Assertion(A):String slices and substrings ,both are extracted subparts of a
string.
Reason(R) : String slices and substrings mean the same.
18 Assertion(A):Like numbers, ==,>,< can also compare two strings.
Reason(R) :comparison of python strings takes place in dictionary order by
applying character-by-character comparison rules for ASCII/Unicode.
19 Assertion(A):String slices and substrings, despite being subparts of a string , are
not the same.
Reason(R) :While the substring contains a continuous subparts of the string ,
the slices may or may not contain continuous subparts of a string.
20 Assertion(A): The individual characters of a string are randomly stored in
memory.
Reason(R) :Python strings are stored in memory by storing individual
characters in contiguous memory locations.

LIST MANIPULATION
List: A list is a collection of comma-separated values (items) of same or different type within square ( )
brackets. List is a mutable data type.
Slicing: Slicing is an operation in which we can slice a particular range from a sequence.
List slices are the sub parts extracted from a list.
Nested List: When a list appears as elements of another list, it is called a nested list.
Built-in Function (Manipulating Lists)
Function Syntax Description
list() list(sequence) It returns a list created from the passed
arguments, which should be a sequence
type(string, list, tuple etc.). if no argument is
passed, it will create an empty list.
append() list.append (items) It adds a single item to the end of the list.
extend() list1.extend (list2) It adds one list at the end of another list.
insert() list.insert (index_no, value) It adds an element at a specified index
reverse() list.reverse () It reverses the order of the elements in a list.
index() list.index (item) It returns the index of first matched item from
the list.
len() len (list) Returns the length of the list i.e. number of
elements in a list
sort() list.sort () This function sorts the items of the list.
clear() list.clear () It removes all the elements from the list.
count() list.count (element) It counts how many times an element has
occurred in a list and returns it.
sorted() sorted(sequence,reverse=False) It returns a newly created sorted list; it does not
67
change the passed sequence.
pop() list.pop (index) It removes the element from the specified index
and also returns the element which was
removed.
remove() list.remove (value) It is used when we know the element to be
deleted, not the index of the element.
max() max(list) Returns the element with the maximum value
from the list.
min() min(list) Returns the element with the minimum value
from the list
sum() sum(list) It returns sum of elements of the list.

JjAns: These will generate an error―Type Error:can only assign an iterable .
Q7. What are list slices?
Ans: List slices are the sub-part of a list extracted out. You can use indexes of the list elements to create list
slices as per following format. Syntax is as follows:- Seq=ListName [start:stop]
Q8.Does a slice operatoral ways produce a newlist?
Ans: Yes, this will create a new list.
ShortAnswerTypeQuestions
Q1. How are lists different from strings when both are sequences?
Ans: Lists are similar to strings in many ways like indexing, slicing, and accessing individual elements but
they are different in the sense that Lists are mutable while strings are immutable.
Inconsecutive locations, strings store the individual characters while list stores the references of its elements.
Strings store single type of elements-all characters while lists can store elements belonging to different types.
Q2. What are nested Lists?

Ans: A list can have an element in it,which itself is a list.Such a list is called nested list.e.g.
L=[1,2,3,4,[5,6,7],8]
Q3.Discuss the utility and significance of Lists.
Ans: The list is a most versatile datatype available in Python which can be written as a list of
comma-separated values(items) between square brackets. Important thing about a list is that items in a
list need not be of the same type. List is majorly used with dictionaries when there is large number of data.
Q4. What is the purpose of the del operator and pop method? Try deleting a slice.
Ans: del operator is used to remove an individual item,or to remove all items identified by a slice.
It is to be used as per syntax given below–
>>>del List[index]
>>>del List[start:stop]
Pop method is used to remove single element, not list slices.The pop() method removes an
individual
item and returns it.I ts syntax is–

>>>a=List.pop() #thiswill remove last item and deleted item will be assigned to a.
>>>a=List[10] #thiswill remove the item at index10 and deleted item will be assigned to a.
Q5. What are list slices?
Ans: List slices,like string slices are the sub part of a list extracted out. Indexes can be used to create list
slices as per following format:
seq=L[start:stop]
Q6. What do you understand by true copy of a list? How is it different from shallow copy?
Ans:A shallow copy means constructing a new collection object and then populating it with references to the
child objects found in the original. In essence, a shallow copy is only one leveldeep. The copying process does
not recurse and therefore won‘t create copies of the child objects themselves.
71
True Copy means you can create a copy of a list using New_list=My_list. The assignment just copies the
reference to the list, not the actual list, so both new_list and my_list refer to thesamelistaftertheassignment.

UNSOLVED QUESTIONS(ANSWERS)
Q1. WAP to find minimum element from a list of elements along with its index in the list.
Ans. lst = eval(input(“enter list :”))

min_element = lst[0]
min_index = 0
for i in range(1, len(lst)):
if lst[i] <min_element:
min_element = lst[i]
min_index = i
print(“Given list is : “,lst)
print(“The minimum element of the given list is :”)
print(min_element,”at index”,min_index)
Q2.WAP to Calculate mean of the given list of numbers.

Ans.numbers = [23, 45, 12, 67, 9, 31]
# Calculate the sum of the numbers
total = 0
for num in numbers:
total += num
# Calculate the mean
mean = total / len(numbers)
print(“The mean of the numbers is :”,mean)
72
Q3. WAP to search for an element in a given list of numbers.
Ans.lst=eval(input(“Enter list:”))
length=len(lst)
element=int(input(“Enter element to be searched for:”))
for i in range(0,length):
if element==lst[i]:
print(element,”found at index”,i)
break
else:
print(element,”not found in given list”)
Q4. WAP to count the frequency of a given element in the list of numbers.
Ans . L=[2,58,95,999,65,32,15,1,7,45]
n=int(input("Enter the number : "))
print("The frequency of number ",n," is ",L.count(n))
Q5. Differentiate between append( ) and extend( ) functions.

Ans. The append() function/method adds a single item to the end of the existing list. It doesn’t return a
new list. Rather, it modifies the original list. The extend() adds all multiple items in the form of a list at the
end of another list.
TUPLES
A tuple is a collection which is ordered and immutable (We cannot change elements of a tuple in place).
Tuples are written with round brackets. Tuples are used to store multiple items in a single variable. Tuples
may have items with same value.
Exp. T = () # Empty Tuple
T = (1, 2, 3) # Tuple of integers
T = (1,3.4,7) # Tuple of numbers
T = (‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’) # Tuple of characters
T = (‘A’,4.5,’Ram’,45) # Tuple of mixed values
T = (‘Amit’, ‘Ram’, ‘Shyam’) # Tuple of strings
Creating Tuples
A tuple is created by placing all the items (elements) inside parentheses (), separated by commas.
Exp. T = (10,20, ‘Computer’,30.5)
If there is only a single element in a tuple then the element should be followed by a comma, otherwise it will
be treated as integer instead of tuple. For example
T = (10) # Here (10) is treated as integer value, not a tuple
T1 = (10,) # It will create a tuple
73
Difference between List and Tuple
List Tuple
Elements are enclosed in square brackets i.e. [ ] Elements are enclosed in parenthesis i.e. ( )
It is mutable data type It is immutable data type
Iterating through a list is slower as compared to tuple Iterating through a tuple is faster as compared
to list
Accessing Elements of a tuple (Indexing)
Elements of a tuple can be accessed in the same way as a list or string using indexing and slicing, for example
If str = (‘C’, ‘O’, ‘M’, ‘P’, ‘U’, ‘T’, ‘E’, ‘R’)
>>> str[2] = ‘M’

>>> str[-3] = ‘T’
Traversing a Tuple
Traversing a tuple means accessing and processing each element of it. The for loop makes it easy to
traverse or loop over the items in a tuple. For example:
str = (‘C’, ‘O’, ‘M’, ‘P’, ‘U’, ‘T’, ‘E’, ‘R’)

for x in str:
print(str[x])
The above loop will produce result as :
C
O
M
P
U
T
E
R
Tuple Operations
Concatenation (Joining Tuples)
The + operator is used to join (Concatenate) two tuples
Exp.
>>> T1 = (10,20,30)
>>> T2 = (11,22,33)
>>> T1 + T2
+ Operator concatenates Tuple T1 and Tuple T2 and creates a new Tuple
(10, 20, 30, 11, 22, 33)
74
Repetition
* Operator is used to replicate a tuple specified number of times, e.g.
>>> T = (10, 20, 30)
>>> T * 2
(10, 20, 30, 10, 20, 30)
Membership:
The ‘in’ operator checks the presence of element in tuple. If the element present it returns True, else it
returns False.
For Exp. str = (‘C’, ‘O’, ‘M’, ‘P’, ‘U’, ‘T’, ‘E’, ‘R’)
‘M’ in str => Returns True
‘S’ in str => Returns False
The not in operator returns True if the element is not present in the tuple, else it returns False.
‘M’ not in str => Returns False
‘S’ not in str => Returns True
Slicing
It is used to extract one or more elements from the tuple. Slicing can be used with tuples as it is used in
Strings and List. Following format is used for slicing:
S1 = T[start : stop : step]
The above statement will create a tuple slice namely S1 having elements of Tuple T on indexes start,
start+step, start+step+step, …, stop-1.
By default value of start is 0, value of stop is length of the tuple and step is 1
For Example:
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90)
>>> T[2:7:3]
(30, 60)
>>> T[2:5]
(30, 40, 50)
>>> T[::3]
(10, 40, 70)
T[5::]
(60, 70, 80, 90)
Built-in functions/methods:
The len( ) function
This method returns length of the tuple or the number of elements in the tuple, i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90)
>>> len(T)
9
75
The max( ) function
This method returns element having maximum value, i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,600,70,80,90)
>>>max(T)
600
>>> T = ('pankaj','pinki','parul')
>>> max(T)
'pinki'
The min( ) function

This method returns element having minimum value, i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,600,70,80,90)
>>>min(T)
10
>>> T = ('pankaj','pinki','parul')
>>> min(T)
'pankaj'
The sum( ) function

This method is used to find the sum of elements of the tuple, i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,600,70,80,90)
>>> sum(T)
990
The index( ) method

It returns the index of an existing element of a tuple., i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,600,70,80,90)
>>> T.index(50)
4
But if the given item does not exist in tuple, it raises ValueError exception.
>>> T = (10,20,30,40,50,600,70,80,90)
>>> T.index(55)
ValueError: tuple.index(x): x not in tuple
The count( ) method

This method returns the count of a member / element (Number of occurrences) in a given tuple.,
i.e.,
>>> T = (10,20,30,20,20,0,70,30,20)
>>> T.count(20)
4
>>> T = (10,20,30,20,20,0,70,30,20)
>>> T.count(30)
2
76
The tuple( ) method
This function creates an empty tuple or creates a tuple if a sequence is passed as argument.
>>> L = [10, 20, 30] # List
>>> T = tuple(L) # Creates a tuple from the list
>>> print(T)
(10, 20, 30)
>>> str = "Computer" # String

>>> T = tuple(str) # Creates a tuple from the string
>>> print(T)
('C', 'o', 'm', 'p', 'u', 't', 'e', 'r')
The sorted( ) method

This function takes the name of the tuple as an argument and returns a new sorted list with sorted
elements in it.
>>> T = (10,40,30,78,65,98,23)
>>> X = sorted(T) # Make a list of values arranged in ascending order
>>> print(X)
[10, 23, 30, 40, 65, 78, 98]
>>> Y = sorted(T, reverse = False) # Make a list of values arranged in ascending order
>>> print(Y)
[10, 23, 30, 40, 65, 78, 98]
>>> Z = sorted(T, reverse = True) # Make a list of values arranged in descending order
>>> print(Z)
[98, 78, 65, 40, 30, 23, 10]
Tuple Assignment (Unpacking Tuple)
It allows a tuple of variables on the left side of the assignment operator to be assigned respective
values from a tuple on the right side. The number of variables on the left should be same as the number of
elements in the tuple.
Exp.
>>> T = ('A', 100, 20.5)
>>> x,y,z = T
>>> print(x,y,z)
A 100 20.5
Nested Tuple
A tuple containing another tuple in it as a member is called a nested tuple, e.g., the tuple shown below
is a nested tuple:
>>> students = (101,'Punit', (82,67,75,89,90)) # nested tuple
>>> len(students)
3
77
>>> print(students[1]) # 2nd element of tuple
Punit
>>> print(students[2]) # 3rd element of tuple
(82, 67, 75, 89, 90)
>>> print(students[2][3]) # Accessing 4th element of inner tuple
89

Q1. Define Tuple?

Ans. A tuple is an ordered sequence of elements of different data types, such as integer, float, string, list or
even a tuple. Elements of a tuple are enclosed in parenthesis (round brackets) and are separated by
commas.
For example T = (1,2, ‘a’, 5) # T is a tuple

Ans:
List Tuple
Elements are enclosed in square Elements are enclosed in
brackets i.e. [ ] parenthesis i.e. ( )
It is mutable data type It is immutable data type
Iterating through a list is slower as Iterating through a tuple is faster
compared to tuple as compared to list
Q5) What is unpacking Tuple?

Ans: It allows a tuple of variables on the left side of the assignment operator to be assigned respective values
from a tuple on the right side. The number of variables on the left should be same as the number of
elements in the tuple.

print("No. of vowels : ",v)
81
Dictionaries
A dictionary is an unordered sequence of key-value pairs.
➢ Key and value in a key-value pair in a dictionary are separated by a colon. Further, the key : value
➢ pairs in a dictionary are separated by commas and are enclosed between curly parentheses.
➢ The keys of the dictionaries are immutable types such as Integers or Strings etc.
➢ Indices in a dictionary can be of any immutable type and are called keys.
➢ Dictionaries are mutable.
Creating Dictionaries
A Dictionary can be created in three different ways:
Empty Dictionary
>>>D = { } # Empty Dictionary
Dictionary using literal notation
>>>D = {“Name” : “Mohan”, “Class” : “XI”, “City” : “Gurdaspur”}
>>>print(D)
{“Name” : “Mohan”, “Class” : “XI”, “City” : “Gurdaspur”}
>>>print(D[“City”])
“Gurdaspur”
Dictionary using dict() function
Dict() function is used to create a new dictionary with no items. For example,
>>> Months = dict() # Creates an empty dictionary
>>>print(Month) # Prints an empty dictionary
We can use Square Brackets( [ ] with keys for accessing and initializing dictionary values. For Example:
>>> Months[0] = ‘January’
>>> Months[1] = ‘February’
>>>Months[2] = ‘March’
>>> print(Months)
{0 : ’January’, 1: ’February’ , 2 : ’March’}
>>> Months = dict(Jan = 31, Feb = 28, March = 31) # Creating dictionary by giving values in dict()
function
>>> print(Months)
{‘Jan’ : 31, ‘Feb’ : 28, ‘March’ : 31}
Accessing Elements of a Dictionary

Elements of Dictionary may be accessed by writing the Dictionary name and key within square
brackets ([ ] ) as given below:
>>> D = {0 : “Sunday”, 1 : “Monday”, 2: “Tuesday”}
>>> print(D[1])
Monday
Attempting to access a key that does not exist, causes an error. Consider the following statement
that is trying to access a non – existent key (7) from dictionary D. it raises KeyError.
>>> D[7]
KeyError : 7
82
Traversing a Dictionary
Dictionary items can be accessed using a for loop.
for x in D:
print(D [x])
Output
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday
Mutability of Dictionary
Dictionary like lists are mutable, it means dictionary can be changed, new items can be added and
existing items can be updated.
Adding an Element in Dictionary

We can add new element (key : value pair) to a dictionary using assignment, but the key being added
must not exist in dictionary and must be unique.
>>> D[4] = “Wednesday” # if a new key is given, new item is added
>>> print(D)
{0 : “Sunday”, 1 : “Monday”, 2: “Tuesday”, 3: “Wednesday”}
Updating / Modifying an element in Dictionary

We can change the individual element of dictionary as given below:
>>> D[1] = “Mon” # Value of Key (1) is changed
>>> print(D)
{0 : “Sunday”, 1 : “Mon”, 2: “Tuesday”, 3: “Wednesday”}
Dictionary Functions and Methods

Built –in functions and methods are provided by Python to manipulate Python dictionaries.
len() function:
It is used to find the length of the dictionary, i.e., the count of the key : value pair.
Exp.
D = {'Ram' : 20, 'Mohan' : 30, 'Rama' : 22, 'Rashi' : 32}
length = len(D)
print("Length of Dictionary : ", length)
Output
Length of Dictionary : 4
dict() function:
The dict() function creates a dictionary.
Exp.
By giving Key:value pair in the form of separate sequence:
83
Accessing Items, Keys and Values – get(), items(), keys(), values () methods
get( ) Method : it returns value of the given key
>>> D = {'Ram' : 20, 'Mohan' : 30, 'Rama' : 22, 'Rashi' : 32}
>>> value = D.get('Rama', 'Key not Found')
>>> print("Age of Rama is : ", value)
>>> value = D.get('Mohit', 'Key not Found') # if key is not in the dictionary, it shows key not found
>>> print("Age of Mohit is : ", value)
Output
Age of Rama is : 22
Age of Mohit is : Key not Found
items( ) Method :
It returns all items of a dictionary in the form of list of tuple of (key:value)
>>> print(D.items())
Output
dict_items([('Ram', 20), ('Mohan', 30), ('Rama', 22), ('Rashi', 32)])
keys( ) Method :
It returns list of all the keys of the dictionary.
>>> print(D.keys())
Output
dict_keys(['Ram', 'Mohan', 'Rama', 'Rashi'])
values( ) Method :
It returns list of all the values of the dictionary.
>>> print(D.values())
84
Output
dict_values([20, 30, 22, 32])
update( ) Method :
This function merges key : value pairs from the new dictionary into the original dictionary, adding or
replacing
as needed. The items in the new dictionary are added to the old one and override any items already there with
the same keys.
>>> D2 = {'A' : 20, 'Mohan' : 60, 'Rama' : 62, 'B' : 32}
>>> D.update(D2)
>>> print("D => ",D)
>>> print("D2 => ", D2)
Output
D => {'Ram': 20, 'Mohan': 60, 'Rama': 62, 'Rashi': 32, 'A': 20, 'B': 32}
D2 => {'A': 20, 'Mohan': 60, 'Rama': 62, 'B': 32}
Deleting elements from dictionary:

del statement
del statement is used to delete a dictionary element or dictionary entry, i.e., a key:value pair.
>>> print(D)
>>> del D["Mohan"] # to delete a key from the dictionary i.e. “Mohan”
>>> print(D)
>>> del D # To delete the whole dictionary
Output
{'Ram': 20, 'Mohan': 30, 'Rama': 22, 'Rashi': 32} # Complete Dictionary
{'Ram': 20, 'Rama': 22, 'Rashi': 32} # After deleting “Mohan”
clear ( ) method
It empties the dictionary.
>>> print(D)
>>> D.clear()
>>> print("Dictionary after Clear : ", D)
Output
{'Ram': 20, 'Mohan': 30, 'Rama': 22, 'Rashi': 32}
Dictionary after Clear : {}
pop ( ) method
It removes and returns the dictionary element associated to passed key.
85
>>> print("Removed Item : ", D.pop("Rama"))
Output
Removed Item : 22
popitem ( ) method
It removes and returns the last dictionary element.
>>> print("Removed Item : ", D.popitem())
Output
Removed Item : ('Rashi', 32)
sorted ( ) method
It returns a sorted list of the dictionary keys. It is used as below:
>>> print(sorted(D)) # sort the keys in ascending order
>>> print(sorted(D), reverse = False) # sort the keys in ascending order
>>> print(sorted(D), reverse = True) # sort the keys in descending order
Output
['Mohan', 'Ram', 'Rama', 'Rashi']
['Mohan', 'Ram', 'Rama', 'Rashi']
['Rashi', 'Rama', 'Ram', 'Mohan']
max ( ) , min() and sum() Functions

These functions work with the keys of a dictionary. Dictionaries must be homogeneous to use the
functions.
• max() function gives the maximum value
• min() function gives the minimum value
• sum() function gives the sum of keys
>>> D = {1: "Monday", 2: "Tuesday", 3:"Wednesday"}
>>> print("Max = ",max(D))
>>> print("min = ",min(D))
>>> print("Sum = ", sum(D))
Output
Max = 3
min = 1
Sum = 6
fromkeys ( ) method
This method is used to create a new dictionary from a sequence containing all the keys and common
value, which will be assigned to all the keys. Keys argument must be an interable sequence (First argument).
When value not given, it will take None as the values for the keys (Second Argument)
Exp.
86
>>> D = dict.fromkeys([2,4,5,8],200) # When Value given
>>> print(D)
>>> D = dict.fromkeys([2,4,5,8]) # When value not given, it will take None as the values for the keys
print(D)
Output
{2: 200, 4: 200, 5: 200, 8: 200}
{2: None, 4: None, 5: None, 8: None}
setdefault ( ) method
This method inserts a new key: value pair only if the key does not exist. If the key already exists, it
returns the current value of the key.
Exp.
>>> D = {1: "Monday", 2: "Tuesday", 3:"Wednesday"}
>>> D.setdefault(2,"Tuesday") # Key already exists, it will not insert
>>> print(D)
>>> D.setdefault(4,"Thursday") # New Key, it will be inserted
>>> print(D)
Output
{1: 'Monday', 2: 'Tuesday', 3: 'Wednesday'}
{1: 'Monday', 2: 'Tuesday', 3: 'Wednesday', 4: 'Thursday'}

Question – Answers
Q1) What is a dictionary?
Ans: A dictionary is an unordered sequence of key-value pairs.
➢ Key and value in a key-value pair in a dictionary are separated by a colon. Further, the key : value
➢ pairs in a dictionary are separated by commas and are enclosed between curly parentheses.
➢ The keys of the dictionaries are immutable types such as Integers or Strings etc.
➢ Indices in a dictionary can be of any immutable type and are called keys.
➢ Dictionaries are mutable.
Q2) What is the use of from keys ( ) method?

Ans: This method is used to create a new dictionary from a sequence containing all the keys and common
value, which will be assigned to all the keys. Keys argument must be an interable sequence (First argument).
When value not given, it will take None as the values for the keys (Second Argument)
Q3) What do you understand by Mutability of Dictionary?

Ans: Dictionary is mutable, it means dictionary can be changed, new items can be added and existing items
can be updated.
88
Q4) Why a list cannot be used as keys of dictionaries?
Ans: Lists cannot be used as keys in a dictionary because they are mutable and a Python dictionary can have
only keys of immutable types.
Q5) If the addition of new key : value pair causes the size of the dictionary to grow beyond its original size,
an error occurs, True or False?
Ans: False, There cannot occur an error because dictionaries being the mutable types, they can grow or
shrink
on and as needed basis.
Q6) Write the output of following code:
x = {1:10, 2:20, 3:30}
x[4] = 20
print(x)
Ans:
{1: 10, 2: 20, 3: 30, 4: 20}

d = {'x': 1, 'y': 2, 'z': 3}
for k in d:
print (k, '=', d[k])
Ans:
x=1
y=2
z=3

x = {1:10}
d = {2:20, 3:30, 4:40}
x.update(d)
print(x)
Ans:
{1: 10, 2: 20, 3: 30, 4: 40}

Python Modules
Python Modules:
Modules are the files in python used for grouping similar codes, to get an easy access to those codes.
Python Modules facilitates reusability and easy categorization of codes.
Python Built In Modules:
Python facilitates its users a variety of modules already defined in Python library that makes Python a easy
to use programming language. Some of these modules are:
Importing a Python Module:
Python modules can be imported in three ways, using:
Python import statement:

To use the functionality present in any module, you have to import it into your current program. You need to
use the import keyword along with the desired module name.
Python “import” statement is used to import a Python module. For Example
import math
Python from.. import statement:

Python also facilitates to import a specific attribute from a Python module. This can be done using Python
“from..import” statement. For example
from math import sqrt # It will import only sqrt method from math module
Python from.. import* statement:

Python “from..import*” statement is used to import a complete Python module. For Example
from math import * # it imports entire module
Python Math Module:
Python math module contains different built in mathematical functions and mathematical constants.
Math Functions:
FUNCTION USES Example

ceil () The ceil() function returns the smallest integer not math.ceil(1.03) gives 2.0
less than num math.ceil(-1.03) gives -1.0
floor() The floor() function returns the largest integer not math.floor(1.03) gives 1.0
greater than num math.floor(-1.03) gives -2.0
sqrt() The sqrt() function returns the square root of num. If math.sqrt(81.0) gives 9.0
num < 0 , domain error occurs.
pow() The pow() function returns the base raised to exp math.pow(5.0,0) gives 1
power math.pow(3.0,4) gives 81
fabs() The fabs() returns the absolute value of num math.fabs(2.0) gives 2.0
math.fabs(-2.0) gives 2.0
90
sin() The sin() function returns the sine of arg. The value math.sin(val)
of arg must be in radians. (val is a number)
cos() The cos() function returns the cosine of arg. The math.cos(val)
value of arg must be in radians. (val is a number)
tan() The tan() function returns the tangent of arg. The math.tan(val)
value of arg must be in radians. (val is a number)
The math module of Python also makes available two useful constants namely pi and e. Which we can use as
math.pi gives the mathematical constant π = 3.141592…, to available precision.
math.e gives the mathematical constant e = 2.718281…, to available precision.
Random Module
Function Uses Example
random() Used to generate a random floating – point number Import random()
between 0.0 to 1.0 that is, including zero but excluding print(random.random())
one. 0.022353
randint() randint(start, stop) is used to generate a random random.randint(10,15)
number between start and stop where both the it may generate any one of the
numbers are inclusive. values given below
10,11,12,13,14,15
randrange() • random.randrange(<stopvalue>) is used to • random.randrange(35)
generate a random number in the range 0 to It will generate a random
<stopvalue> number from 0 to 35
• random.randrange(start,stop) is used to • random.randrange(11,45)
generate a random number in the range start to It will generate a random
stop number in the range 11 ..
• random.randrange(start,stop,step) is used to 45
generate a random number in the range start to • random.randrange(11,45,
stop, but here, the difference between two such 4)
generated random numbers will be a multiple of it may generate any one
step value. of the values given
below11,15,19,23,27,31,3
5,39,43
91
Statistics Module
mean() This method calculates the mean (average) of the givendata import statistics
set. It add up all the given values, then divide by number of seq =
values in the set. [5,6,7,5,6,5,5,9,11,12,23,5]
statistics.mean(seq)
it gives 8.25
median() This method calculates the median (middle value) of the import statistics
given data set. seq =
[5,6,7,5,6,5,5,9,11,12,23,5]
statistics.median(seq)
it gives 6.0
mode() This method determines the central tendency of numerical import statistics
or nominal data. It is used to find the most frequent number seq =
in a sequence. [5,6,7,5,6,5,5,9,11,12,23,5]
statistics.mode(seq)
it gives 5

DIGITAL FOOTPRINT
A digital footprint – refers to the trail of data you leave while using the internet. It includes websites you visit,
emails you send, and information you submit online. A digital footprint can be used to track a person’s online
activities and devices.
Internet users create their digital footprint either actively or passively. A passive footprint is made when
information is collected from the user without the person knowing this is happening. An active digital
footprint
is where the user has deliberately shared information about themselves either by using social media sites or
by
using websites.
Digital Footprint Examples

Online shopping
● Making purchases from e-commerce websites
Online banking
● Using a mobile banking app
Social media
● Using social media on your computer or mobile
● Sharing information, data, and photos with your connections
Health and fitness
● Using fitness trackers
● Using apps to receive healthcare
NETIQUETTE
It is the abbreviation of Internet etiquette or network etiquette, refers to online manners while using internet or
working online. While online you should be courteous, truthful and respectful of others. It includes proper
manners for sending e-mail, conversing online, and so on.
Some basic rules of netiquette are:
● Be respectful
● Think about who can see what you have shared.
● Read first, then ask
● Respect the privacy of others
● Do not share personal information
Communication Etiquettes
Digital communication includes email, texting, instant messaging, talking on the cell phone, audio or video
conferencing, posting on forums, social networking sites, etc. All these are the popular ways to connect with
people in order to exchange ideas, share data and knowledge.
• Be Precise
• Respect time
• Respect data limits
• Be Polite
• Be Credible
Social Media Etiquettes

Now a days, we are using different kinds social media and we may have an account on Facebook, Google+,
Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, or the YouTube channel. Social media are websites or applications that enable
their users to participate in social networking by creating and sharing content with others in the community.
95
These platforms encourage users to share their thoughts and experiences through posts or pictures.
• Be Secure
• Choose password wisely
• Know who you be friend
• Beware of fake information
• Be Reliable
• Think before uploading
DATA PROTECTION
Data protection is a set of strategies and processes you can use to secure the privacy, availability, and integrity
of the data. It is sometimes also called data security. A data protection strategy is very important for any
organisation that collects, handles, or stores sensitive data.
Data Privacy v/s Data Protection

For data privacy, users can often control how much of their data is shared and with whom. For data protection,
it is up to the companies handling data to ensure that it remains private. Data privacy is focused on defining
who has access to data while data protection focuses on applying those restrictions.
How we can protect our personal data online
● Encrypt the Data
● Keep Passwords Private and secure
● Don't Share personal data on Social Networking Sites or share it wisely
● Use Security Software
● Avoid Phishing Emails
● Avoid using public Wi-Fi
● Safely Dispose of Personal Information
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS (IPR)

Intellectual Property is a property created by a person or group of persons using their own intellect for
ultimate use in commerce and which is already not available in the public domain.
Examples of Intellectual Property :

• an invention relating to a product or any process
• a new design
• a literary or artistic work and a trademark (a word, a symbol and / or a logo, etc.)
Intellectual Property Right (IPR) is the statutory right granted by the Government, to the owner(s) of the
intellectual property or applicant(s) of an intellectual property (IP) to exclude others from exploiting the IP
commercially for a given period of time, in lieu of the discloser of his/her IP in an IPR application.
Copyright laws protect intellectual property
Copyright It is a legal concept, enacted by most governments giving creator of original work exclusive rights
to it, usually for a limited period.
Patent – A patent is a grant of exclusive right to the inventor by the government. Patent give the holder a right
to exclude others from making, selling, using or importing a particular product or service, in exchange for full
public disclosure of their invention.
96
Trademark – A Trademark is a word, phrase, symbol, sound, colour and/or design that identifies and
distinguishes the products from those of others.
VIOLATION OF IPR
Violation of intellectual property right may happen in one of the following ways:
Plagiarism
Plagiarism It is stealing someone’s intellectual work and representing it as your own work without citing the
source of information.
Any of the following acts would be termed as Plagiarism:
• Using some other author’s work without giving credit to the author
• Using someone else’s work in incorrect form than intended originally by the author or creator.
• Modifying /lifting someone’s production such as music composition etc. without attributing it to the
creator of the work.
• Giving incorrect source of information.
Copyright infringement – When someone uses a copyrighted material without permission, or we have not paid
for it, if it is being sold. it is called Copyright infringement. Suppose we download an image from the Internet
and use it in our project.
Trademark Infringement
Trademark Infringement means unauthorised use of other’s trademark on products and services. An owner of
a trademark may commence legal proceedings against someone who infringes its registered trademark.
FREE AND OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE (FOSS)

OSS refers to Open Source Software, which refers to software whose source code is available to customers
and it can be modified and redistributed without any limitation.
Free and open-source software (FOSS) is software that can be classified as both free software and open-source
software. That is, anyone is freely licensed to use, copy, study, and change the software in any way, and the
source code is openly shared so that people are encouraged to voluntarily improve the design of the software.
LICENSING AND COPYRIGHT

Licenses are the permissions given to use a product or someone’s creation by the copyright holder.
Copyright is a legal term to describe the rights of the creator of an original creative work such as a literary
work, an artistic work, a design, song, movie or software etc.
The GNU General public license (GPL) and the Creative Commons (CC) are two popular categories of public
licenses.
CC is used for all kind of creative works like websites, music, film, literature, etc. CC enables the free
distribution of an otherwise copyrighted work.
It is used when an author wants to give people the right to share, use and build upon a work that they have
created. GPL is primarily designed for providing public licence to a software. GNU GPL is another free
software license, which provides end users the freedom to run,study, share and modify the software, besides
getting regular updates.
97
CYBER CRIME
Any criminal or illegal activity through an electric channel or through any computer network is considered as
cyber crime.
Eg: Cyber harassment and stalking, distribution of child pornography,types of spoofing, credit card fraud ,. etc
CYBER LAW
It is the law governing cyberspace which includes freedom of expression, access to and usage of internet and
online privacy.
The issues addressed by cyber law include cybercrime, e-commerce, IPR and Data protection.
HACKING
It is an act of unauthorised access to a computer, computer network or any digital system.
Hackers usually are technical expertise of hardware and software.
● Hacking when done with a positive intent is called as Ethical hacking or White hat.
● Hacking when done with a negative intent is called as Unethical hacking or Black hat.
EAVESDROPPING
The term eavesdropping has been derived from the literal practice of secretly listening to the conversations of
people by standing under the eaves of a house. Unlike snooping, where the network traffic can be stored for
later analysis, eavesdropping is an unauthorised real-time interception or monitoring of private
communication between two entities over a network.
Also, the targets are usually the private communication channels like phone calls (VoIP), instant messages,
video conference, fax transmission, etc.
PHISHING AND FRAUD EMAILS

It is an unlawful activity where fake websites or emails appear as original or authentic .This sites when clicked
by the user will collect sensitive and personal details like usernames, password, credit card details etc.
Phishing is an unlawful activity where fake websites or emails that look original or authentic are presented to
the user to fraudulently collect sensitive and personal details, particularly usernames, passwords, banking and
credit card details. The most common phishing method is through email spoofing where a fake or forged
email address is used and the user presumes it to be from an authentic source. So you might get an email from
an address that looks similar to your bank or educational institution, asking for your information,
RANSOMEWARE
This is another kind of cyber crime where the attacker gains access to the computer and blocks the user from
accessing, usually by encrypting the data. The attacker blackmails the victim to pay for getting access to the
data, or sometimes threatens to publish personal and sensitive information or
photographs unless a ransom is paid. Ransomware can get downloaded when the users visit any malicious or
unsecure websites or download software from doubtful repositories.
CYBER TROLL
The comments or posts demean other users or people, or their content is called Cyber Troll. An Cyber troll is
an excellent example of social laws and ethics missing out. These are generally done to respond to any person
or their posts negatively. Trolling can be done by sending hate direct through messages, posts, or comments.
Their way of stating things is suppressive and oppressing, and trolls are visible on all social platforms such as
Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc. The main target of the people who create trolls is people with
98
good fan-following, whether influencers or celebrities
CYBER BULLYING
It is the use of technology to harass , threaten or humiliate a target .
Example: sharing of embarrassing photos or videos, posting false information, sending mean text., etc.
CYBER SAFETY
Cyber safety refers to safe and responsible use of Internet, to ensure safety and security of personal
information and not posing threat to anyone else’s information.
Safely Browsing The Web

Everyone must know the threats while browsing the web. Safe browsing on web needs to know many
important things like:
• What are possible threats?
• How to avoid these threats/dangers?
• How to be safe while browsing web
• Not every site you visit is safe.
• Every post or activity we do online is visible to others.
• Not everything you see or is promised online is true.
Identity Protection while using Internet
▪ The online world is full of chances to interact and share with others. A lot of what you do and
say online can be seen even if you delete it
▪ Anyone can accesses your profile on social networking sites. keep your material private.
▪ Use strong passwords and change them often. Don’t share with others.
▪ Don't respond to inappropriate requests
Confidentiality of Information
▪ Never share your password or account numbers/Ban Details over an e-mail or message.
▪ Do not follow links from e-mails
▪ Beware of fraud callers, pop-ups, websites, or e-mails asking for personal information.
▪ Use secure passwords and change it regularly.
▪ Use anti-spyware, and antivirus softwares.
Malware
Malware is a short term used for Malicious softWARE. It is any software developed with an intention to
damage hardware devices, steal data, or cause any other trouble to the user.
Viruses, Worms, Ransomware, Trojans, and Spyware are some of the kinds of malware.
Viruses
A virus is a piece of software code created to perform malicious activities and hamper resources of a computer
99
system like CPU time, memory, personal files, or sensitive information.
a computer virus infects other computer systems that it comes into contact with by copying or inserting its
code into the computer programs or software (executable files).
Trojan
A Trojan is a malware, that looks like a legitimate software and once it tricks a user into installing it, it acts
pretty much like a virus or worm. However, a Trojan does not self-replicate or infect other files, it spreads
through user interaction such as opening an email attachment or downloading and executing a file from the
Internet.
Adware
An Adware is a malware that is created to generate revenue for its developer. An adware displays online
advertisements using pop-ups, web pages, or installation screens. Once an adware has infected a substantial
number of computer systems, it generates revenue either by displaying advertisements or using “pay per
click” mechanism to charge its clients against the number of clicks on their displayed ads.
E-waste - MANAGEMENT:
Various forms of electric and electronic equipment which no longer satisfy their original purpose are termed
as Ewaste. This includes Desktop, Laptop, Projectors, Mobiles,etc
● MANAGEMENT: Sell back, gift/donate, reuse the parts giveaway to a certified e-waste
Recycler.
Some of the feasible methods of e-waste management are reduce, reuse and recycle.
• Reduce: We should try to reduce the generation of e-waste by purchasing the electronic or electrical devices
only according to our need. Also, they should be used to their maximum capacity and discarded only after
their useful life has ended. Good maintenance of electronics devices also increases the life of the devices.
• Reuse: It is the process of re-using the electronic or electric waste after slight modification. The electronic
equipment that is still functioning should be donated or sold to someone who is still willing to use it. The
process of re-selling old electronic goods at lower prices is called refurbishing.
• Recycle: Recycling is the process of conversion of electronic devices into something that can be used again
and again in some or the other manner. Only those products should be recycled that cannot be repaired,
refurbished or re-used. To promote recycling of e-waste many companies and NGOs are providing door-to-
door pick up facilities for collecting the e-waste from homes and offices.
ABOUT HEALTH CONCERNS RELATED TO THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY:

There are positive as well as negative impact on health due to the use of these technologies.
● POSITIVE IMPACT
▪ Various health apps and gadgets are available to monitor and alert
▪ Online medical records can be maintained
● NEGATIVE IMPACT
▪ One may come across various health issues like eye strain, muscle problems, sleep
issues,etc
▪ Anti social behaviour, isolation, emotional issues, etc.

GENDER AND DISABILITY ISSUES WHILE TEACHING AND USING COMPUTERS GENDER
ISSUES
• Preconceived notions
Notions like ‘boys are better at technical things, girls are good at humanities, arts et girls must take up a career
keeping in mind that they have to raise a family. They must not take up high involvement careers, and
“Teaching is the best option for girls as it gives you half day off and ample number of holidays so that you can
easily take care of your family, etc. have their impact in decision making of girls while taking up subjects.
• Lack of interest
During primitive years, children often play games on computers/ smartphones. Most games available today
are boys-centric that increase their interest in computers Also, at homes boys get to play more on
computers/smartphone (keeping in mind the entire India scenario) and develop more interest in computers
than girls.
• Lack of motivation
Girls are pressurised to choose a career option which will give them ‘work life balance in favour of family
roles they have to play later on. Girls are always told directly/indirectly in households that you have to play
important family role later on and indulging in a subject which will consume most of your time is not
advisable as no matter what, whatever job option you choose, you cannot shy away from your family role.
• Lack of role models
Girls these days see less of role models in the field of ‘Computer Science’ whom they can imitate. TV,
movies, advertisements, every where it is portrayed that is technical fields like ‘Computers Science’, are
men’s fields. All these things influence girls sub-psychologically and they infer that ‘Computer Science’ is for
boys and do not take up the subject.
• Lack of encouragement in class
As there are lesser number of girls in a class, the teachers for most work-assignments end up choosing more
boys. Also, less number of girls means, lesser peer-encouragement. Also, some teachers pin point on their
roles in society such girls will get married and may not take it up as career.
• Unavailability of teaching material / aids
It has been observed that when, in schools, work-partners are chosen, boys prefer boys over girls. And even if
a girl and a boy are made work-partners, boys prefer to work actively and make girls silent observers. Boys
are not comfortable in situations where they are not playing active roles.
Disability Issues
In the specially abled students, there can be one or more disabilities:
(i) Locomotor disabilities – Severe deformities, polio, leprosy, cerebral palsy.

(ii) Hearing and speech disabilities – Hearing impairment, speech aphasia.
(iii) Cognitive impairment – Specific learning deficits (Dyslexia, Dyscalculia). Down’s syndrome,
Autism.
(iv) Vision impairment. low vision, blindness.
• Lack of special needs teachers
For different types of special needs, if special needs teachers are available, disabled students get
their needs addressed in right manner eg., for hearing impaired students, a teacher who is able to
converse in sign language would be able to convey and explain the study material than traditional
methods.
101
• There should be teachers who know what types of hardware, software, tools etc. can be used for the
differently able students as per their specific needs, eg, special types of specialized hardware such as Braille
keyboards, monitors, printers, synthetic speech generators etc., software assistants such as Google assistant
etc.
• Lack of supporting curriculum.
Curriculum should be designed while keeping focus on inclusive education. There always should be
possible alternatives keeping in mind special needs of the students. Software and programs should be so used
so that the disabled students can easily work on that. For example, office software based curriculum can easily
be implemented for all types of students as nearly all office software provide accessibility features.
