# Python

Welcome to the first chapter of The Legend of Python! 🐍

The programming language we are learning is called Python, created by a developer named Guido van Rossum in the early 90s.

Python is designed to be easy for us to read, which makes it the perfect coding language for beginners.

It's also super versatile and used in the following:

• Data analysis & visualization
• Artificial intelligence (AI)
• Machine learning (ML)
• Web development
• And more!

All the code we write in this course will be in Python files, with the .py extension. And we write them inside a code editor.

A code editor is a text editor where we can write and execute code.

There's a code editor on the right side, created just for you. 👉

Let's give it a try!

# Instructions

Copy and paste this line of code in line 3:

print('Hi')

And then press the "Run" button and wait 1-2 seconds.

This should appear in the Terminal window if you did it correctly:

Hi

You are now ready for the journey ahead. (ﾉ ◕ ヮ ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ ✧

Press the "Check Answer" button and then "Next" to continue.

Happy coding!

Rubber Duck NEW

Rubber duck debugging is a classic technique used by developers to debug code. By explaining the code line-by-line to a rubber duck, you can break down the code into smaller pieces, and potentially identify the error.

... It's silly, we know.
