Learn to design, develop, and execute basic programs in Python.

Zero to Hero in Python for Data Science

This module provides a comprehensive introduction to the tools that help create various programs, such as documents, movies, and games. We'll start with a brief introduction to data science, followed by simple math, real-world problem solving, and precise writing solutions. Next, we'll learn decision-based solutions demonstrated via flowcharts and explained with execution sheets. Finally, we'll learn to translate our solutions into Python programs using variables, conditional statements, loops, strings, lists, and built-in functions. We'll also learn to create our custom functions in Python. After completing this module, we will have acquired the skills to write basic programs in Python.

  print("Positive ",end="")
  if a % 2 == 0:
    print("Even number")
  else:
    print("Odd number")
else:
  print("Negative")
```
