Document Summary
Ide"s are part of the standard toolkit that programmers use to develop programs, combining the software tools needed to develop, execute, debug and test a program in one place. Python is a high-level programming language, the python interpreter is a program that reads and executes python code. Instructions written in a program source code for execution are called statements. End of a statement is marked by a newline character. Multi-line statements are program statements that extend over multiple lines with the line continuation. 4 + 5 + 6 + \ Python required statement indentation for blocks of code(typically 4 spaces) Source code: a program in a high-level language before being compiled. Object code: the output of the compiler after it translates the program. Executable: another name for object code that is ready to be executed. Statements in python can be extended to one or more lines using parentheses,braces, square brackets, semicolon, continuation character slash.
