hey everyone welcome to the session by intellipaat as we all know it python is
widely used to drive a data-driven business to success in these days many
companies like Amazon Facebook Google and thousands of other IT firms are
making use of Python on a day to day basis guys and in today's session we
will quickly check out how we can set up and install Python on a Windows
environment well before we begin make sure you subscribe to the intellipaat's
YouTube channel and hit the bell icon to stay up to date with all of the content
that our subject matter experts are putting out for you guys and on that
note let's quickly check out the agenda for this session
firstly we'll take a quick introduction to Python second we'll check out where
Python is used followed by this we'll take a step by step walkthrough to get
Python installed on your Windows machine and fourth we'll actually verify if the
installation went well by running a quick demo code guys and if you have any
questions or comments regarding this make sure to head to the comments
section and let us know and on that note if you guys are interested in an
end-to-end course certification in Python intellipaat provides the Python
certification course training which will help you master the language and earn a
certificate in the same so without further ado let's begin with the session
so what is Python guys well when you come to think about it python has been
everywhere right so it's a language which came about in the 1980s and took
the world by storm and it overtook Java as the most popular programming language
there's today guys so Python is a very easy to learn language it is interpreted
it has object-oriented and it is a high-level programming language guys so
basically our sense is easy to learn again there is a lot of high-level code
written in it so this makes program maintenance very easy and you wouldn't
have to work on that harder and then pretty much modularity and code reuse as
well because there are a lot of four modules in Python that you can just
pretty much invoke and then start using directly and that makes the life of a
coder very easy in my opinion guys and third Python has been open source and
I'm pretty sure it always will be guys so one perk of it being open source is
that it is free to access but the second biggest perk is that it has a wonderful
community which has thousands and millions of learners who are enthusiasts
professional subject matter expert software architects and so much more
guys so love number four is pretty much the number of libraries and the number
of frameworks are which Python supports so everything from your simple hello
world program all the way to achieving artificial intelligence people prefer
Python for that and pretty much all of the Python developers that I have met
love to work with Python guys so you might be wondering where Python is used
well python is used in youtube people at Netflix Instagram Spotify Amazon and
Facebook that's a new logo Facebook by the way and so much more well I could
not think of an idea of fitting all of the images of the forms in just one
slide so I had to break it down to the top people in the top contenders where
Python is just present everywhere guys well if you're watching this YouTube
video well Python is working artificial intelligence is working on your mobile
right now because YouTube when using Python is giving you active and fresh
recommendations of what you should watch considering the past experiences of what
you have watched and so much more so it's pretty much learning what you watch
and then making suggestions based on that guys and it Netflix as well and
pretty much even at Netflix guys so Netflix is the world's best streaming
service as of now per same I mean it's it's in a couple of people's opinion but
for Sure because they use technology at every single level they use artificial
intelligence to map out or what TV shows are liked by people of what region and
so much more I mean I just gave you a very simple example but they actively
change the thumbnail of their own TV shows and movies just based on your
requirement your favorite actors actresses and so much more
coming to Instagram they will know what content they have to show to you better
or they can show you better advertisements and so much more Spotify
again music music is the biggest thing the world has ever seen as a quote which
I read very recently and I sort of agree with the code so having that
recommendation and that tailor-made feel for you when you listen to music sand
having this fresh recommendations is one amazing thing and Spotify again Amazon
Amazon gives you purchase recommendations and so much more
Facebook Facebook again it pretty much knows what you're browsing through the
feed and then gives you recommendations based on what you like and then it will
not show you what things that you don't like and so much more guys so on that
note let us we walk you through the procedure of how
you can install Python on windows guys it's a very simple and straightforward
process now I have broken it down to a couple of steps and let's go with it
together right so step one says go to python.org and head to the download
space and let's do that side by side yes so let me head to the Python web sites
it's python.org for the people who are wondering I just go to download sure you
can directed directly click on the link there as well since we're looking for
Windows Python pretty much detects that for Windows so we already are at the
page where we hit the download so this pretty much forms our second step as
well so let me quickly you know save it in the desktop it's about 25 MB if I
think yep it's about 25 point or 2 megabytes this will take a couple of
seconds to download and in the meantime let's quickly check out what are the
next steps in our PowerPoint slide guys a quick info guys in case you're
interested in doing an end-to-end core certification in Python intellipaat
provides the Python certification course training which will help you master the
language and earn a certificate in the same and on that note let's quickly head
back to the session so our step two is again click on the download which we
just did and guys as of this video being made Python three point eight point zero
is the latest a stable version out there so that brings us to step three guys
step three will pretty much be opening the Installer and we should be presented
with this screen so let's quickly wait for the download to complete and then
we're gonna open up the installation box hey guys that took about a minute to
install and we're presented with this screen which is the installation screen
that's before you hit install now you can pretty much choose to customize the
installation and or install it at a place of your desire make sure you just
click this button which says add python three point eight to path well what
it basically does is it sets your environment variables and it sets the
path variable to Python so as soon as you hit python in your command line you
can just start using python directly guys so that's what it does and it would
be recommended that you do this even if you would not do this there would be no
problem there are other ways to launch python and to use it but if you are a
beginner if you just want to hit python and then start up with coding you can
pretty much hit python to path casts and you just hit install now and this will
ask me for my admin password because we have to install it as an administrator
so let me quickly type in my administrator password and we can work
with it guys and i just entered my password so pretty much
to take about I say around 2 or 3 minutes to get the entire set of process
done ops in the meantime let's check out what's step four again step four is
check the last option to add it to the path and install and step five is the
important step guys so we need to verify that our installation has been
successful so for that to occur we need to make sure our setup completes so
let's this wait a minute and then we can go ahead with the setup guys
so guys now the setup is successful let me quickly open up command prompt to
verify that it has been installed correctly guys so if I go ahead and type
and Python there and then pretty much Python console is ready for us so let's
type in a sample code hello world and as soon as I go ahead and run this
we have the output case so pretty much well as of this moment Python three
point eight point zero is the official stable release of Python and that's what
we've been using guys so we can check out another raw code snippet as well
guys so let me do A equal to 1 B equal to 2 C equal to 3 so much more right up so
let us create a new variable B and then probably add A and B to it so let me
just quickly do this we can print D well B is 3 let's multiply you know let's
let's create another way we'll call it e multiplied D and C let us print you guys
I'm just doing this to just show you that everything is working fine so 3
multiplied with 3 is 9 and so much more to just get out of the console you will
have to type quit followed by parentheses and you're out of there guys
so this is as simple as installing python on your windows guys and we just
verified it using the simple piece of code as well guys but python has another
thing called as idle guys so idle is this pretty much interactive Python can
so that you can go about using and the shell is actually ready so we can go
about typing again hello learners and done so the Python three point eight
point zero works perfectly on the idle shell as well so this is another way or
to just verify the installation guys so coming back to the presentation step
seven is again an optional step but you will get there very soon in case even if
you're a beginner or an advanced learner guys so install the libraries that you
pretty much one there are many libraries at Python supports and the most popular
ones are tensorflow numpy sky pi sky kit low and pandas matplotlib Keras spite
odds like GBM and so much more well these are machine learning deep learning
oriented why our libraries that are present on your screen but then the next
step of installing python is to pretty much install all of the packages and
libraries that you want to go or work with further on guys a quick info guys
in case you're interested in doing an end-to-end course certification in
Python intellipaat provides the Python certification course training which will
help you master the language and earn a certificate in the same I
