CREATE FIRST PYTHON PROGRAM
• Open PyCharm.
• Right Click on project name, a list will appear.
• Next click on New and navigate to the right window and click on
python file.
• Give name to the file i.e. firstPrograme and click on ok.

PROGRAMMING ERRORS
• Errors in programming refer to issues or defects that arise within the
program, and the process of eliminating these errors is
called debugging.
• Types of Errors:
• Some common Types of Errors in Programming are listed below.
• Syntax Error
• Run-Time Error
• Logical Error

SYNTAX ERROR
• It occurs when the programmer writes code that is not in accordance
( ) کے مطابقwith the syntax of the programming language.
• For example, let’s say the correct syntax for printing something is
print('hello'), and we accidentally forget one of the parentheses while
coding. A syntax error will happen, and this will stop the program
from running.

RUN TIME ERROR
• Runtime errors happen as a user is executing your program.
• The code might work correctly on your machine, but on the
webserver, there might be a different configuration, or it might be
interacted with in a way that could cause a runtime error.

LOGICAL ERROR
• A logical error occurs when the program compiles and runs but the
output is incorrect.
• These errors occur when the program's logic or algorithms are
incorrect.
• Logical errors are challenging to detect because the program does not
generate any error messages.

COMMENTS IN PYTHON
• Comments are hints that we add to our code to make it easier to
understand. When executing code, Python's interpreter ignores
comments.
• For example, we have a program to print a text entered by the user.
Portfolio: Universedeveloper.netlify.app | WhatsApp: +923181482800 | Lecturer: Zeeshan Hussain
TYPES OF COMMENT
• let's understand the different types of comments in Python.
• Single line comment ( # )
• Multi line comments ( ‘’’ ‘’’ )
• Single Line: #this is a single line comment.
• Multi Line: ‘’’ this is a multi line comments, now I can write more
then one line comment at a time ‘’’.

WHITE SPACE IN PYTHON
• Python uses indentation to define blocks of code.
• Indentation refers to the spaces or tabs at the beginning of lines of
code. These spaces indicate which lines of code belong to a particular
block, such as a loop, conditional statement, or function.
• For example:
