In this tutorial, we will learn about the Identifiers in Python . How to use them with the help of examples.
Any name in python like function-name, class-name, variable-name…etc is called identifiers in Python. The identifier must obey fallowing rules.
- The identifier contains a-z , A-Z, 0-9, _ but should not start with numeric & does not allows special symbols.
- We cannot use special symbols like !, @, #, $, % etc. in our identifier.
- Identifier can be of any length.
- The identifiers are case sensitive.
- Keywords are not allowed as identifier. (global, del are keywords)
- Is it possible to use predefined class-name & data types names as a identifier but not recommended.
Python Comments
Comments are use to write description about application logics to understand the logics easily. The main objective comments the code maintenance will become easy. The comments are non-executable code.
There are two types of comment
- Single line comment
- write the description in single line & it starts with #
- Multiline comment
- write the description in more than one line starts with “”” ends with : “”””(triple quotes)
- In python while writing the comments we can write double quote or single quote (“) or (‘).
Indentation error in Python
- Python uses whitespace (spaces and tabs) to define program blocks whereas other languages like C, C++ use braces ({}) to indicate blocks of codes for class, functions or flow control.
- The number of whitespaces (spaces and tabs) in the indentation is not fixed, but all statements within the block must be the indented same amount. In the following program, the block statements have no indentation.
