Unit II: Computational Thinking and Programming – 1 [PYTHON
PROGRAMMING] ------------------ 45 MARKS (approx…)
● Introduction to problem solving: Steps for problem solving (analysing the problem, developing an
algorithm, coding, testing and debugging). representation of algorithms using flow chart and
pseudo code, decomposition
● Familiarization with the basics of Python programming: Introduction to Python, features of
Python, executing a simple "hello world" program, execution modes: interactive mode and script
mode, Python character set, Python tokens (keyword, identifier, literal, operator, punctuator),
variables, concept of l-value and r-value, use of comments
● Knowledge of data types: number (integer, floating point, complex), boolean, sequence (string,
list, tuple), none, mapping (dictionary), mutable and immutable data types
● Operators: arithmetic operators, relational operators, logical operators, assignment operator,
augmented assignment operators, identity operators (is, is not), membership operators (in, not in)
● Expressions, statement, type conversion & input/output: precedence of operators, expression,
evaluation of expression, python statement, type conversion (explicit & implicit conversion),
accepting data as input from the console and displaying output
● Errors: syntax errors, logical errors, runtime errors
● Flow of control: introduction, use of indentation, sequential flow, conditional and iterative flow
control
● Conditional statements: if, if-else, if-elif-else, flowcharts, simple programs: e.g.: absolute value,
sort 3 numbers and divisibility of a number
● Iterative statements: for loop, range function, while loop, flowcharts, break and continue
statements, nested loops, suggested programs: generating pattern, summation of series, finding
the factorial of a positive number etc
● Strings: introduction, indexing, string operations (concatenation, repetition, membership &
slicing), traversing a string using loops, built-in functions: len(), capitalize(), title(), lower(), upper(),
count(), find(), index(), endswith(), startswith(), isalnum(), isalpha(), isdigit(), islower(), isupper(),
isspace(), lstrip(), rstrip(), strip(), replace(), join(), partition(), split()
