Introduction to Internet of Things 1

Why Python?
 Python is a versatile language which is easy to script and easy to
read.
 It doesn’t support strict rules for syntax.
 Its installation comes with integrated development environment
for programming.
 It supports interfacing with wide ranging hardware platforms.
 With open-source nature, it forms a strong backbone to build large
applications.

Introduction to Internet of Things 2

Python IDE
 Python IDE is a free and open source software that is used to
write codes, integrate several modules and libraries.
 It is available for installation into PC with Windows, Linux and
Mac.
 Examples: Spyder, PyCharm, etc.

Introduction to Internet of Things 3

Starting with
Python
 Simple printing statement at the python interpreter prompt,
>>> print “Hi, Welcome to python!”
Output: Hi, Welcome to python!
 To indicate different blocks of code, it follows rigid indentation.
if True:
print “Correct"
else:
print “Error"

Introduction to Internet of Things 4

 Data- types in
Python
There are 5 data types in Python:
 Numbers
x, y, z = 10, 10.2, " Python "

 String
x = ‘This is Python’
print x >>This is Python
print x[0] >>T
print x[2:4] >>is

Introduction to Internet of Things 5

Data- types in Python
(contd..)
 List
x = [10, 10.2, 'python']

 Tuple

 Dictionary
d = {1:‘item','k':2}

Introduction to Internet of Things 6

Controlling
Statements
 if (cond.):  while (cond.):
statement 1 statement 1
statement 2 statement 2
 x = [1,2,3,4]
elif (cond.):
for i in x:
statement 1
statement 1
statement 2 statement 2
else:
statement 1
statement 2

Introduction to Internet of Things 7

Controlling Statements
(contd..)
 Break  Continue
for s in "string": for s in "string":
if s == ‘n': if s == ‘y':
break continue
print (s) print (s)
print print “End”
“End”

Introduction to Internet of Things 8

Functions in Python
 Defining a function
 Without return value
def funct_name(arg1, arg2, arg3): # Defining the function
statement 1
statement 2
 With return value
def funct_name(arg1, arg2, arg3): # Defining the function

statement 1
statement 2
return x # Returning the value

Introduction to Internet of Things 9

Functions in Python
 Calling a function
def example (str):
print (str + “!”)

example (“Hi”) # Calling the function

Output:: Hi!

Introduction to Internet of Things 10

Functions in Python
(contd..)
 Example showing function returning multiple values
def greater(x, y):
if x > y:
return x, y
else:
return
y, x

val = greater(10,
100) print(val)

Output:: (100,10)
Introduction to Internet of Things 11
Functions as Objects
 Functions can also be assigned and reassigned to the variables.
 Example:
def add (a,b)
return a+b

print (add(4,6))
c = add(4,6)
print c

Output:: 10 10
Introduction to Internet of Things 12
Variable Scope in Python
Global variables:
These are the variables declared out of any function , but can be
accessed inside as well as outside the function.

Local variables:
These are the ones that are declared inside a function.

Introduction to Internet of Things 13

Example showing Global Variable
g_var = 10

def example():
l_var = 100
print(g_var)

example() # calling the function

Output:: 10
Introduction to Internet of Things 14
Example showing Variable Scope
var = 10

def example():
var = 100
print(var)

example() # calling the function

print(var)

Output:: 100
10
Introduction to Internet of Things 15
Modules in Python
 Any segment of code fulfilling a particular task that can be
used commonly by everyone is termed as a module.

 Syntax:
import module_name #At the top of the code

using module_name.var #To access functions and values

with ‘var’ in the module

Introduction to Internet of Things 16

Modules in Python
(contd..)
 Example:
import random

for i in range(1,10):
val = [Link](1,10)
print (val)

Output:: varies with each execution

Introduction to Internet of Things 17

Modules in Python
(contd..)
 We can also access only a particular function from a module.

 Example:
from math import pi

print (pi)

Output:: 3.14159

Introduction to Internet of Things 18

Exception Handling in
Python
 An error that is generated during execution of a program, is
termed as exception.
 Syntax:
try:
statements
except _Exception_:
statement
s else:
statemen
ts
Introduction to Internet of Things 19
Exception Handling in Python
(contd..)
 Example:
while True:
try:
n = input ("Please enter an integer: ")
n = int (n)
break
except ValueError:
print
"No valid
integer! "
print “It is an
integer!"
Introduction to Internet of Things 20
Example Code: to check number is prime or
not
x = int (input("Enter a number: "))
def prime (num):
if num > 1:
for i in
range(2,num):
if (num % i)
== 0:
print (num,"is not a prime number")
print (i,“is a factor of”,num)
break
else:
print(num,"is a prime number")
else:
print(num,"is not a prime number")
prime (x)
Introduction to Internet of Things 21
File Read Write
Operations
 Python allows you to read and write files
 No separate module or library required
 Three basic steps
 Open a file
 Read/Write
 Close the file

Introduction to Internet of Things 2

File Read Write Operations
(contd..)
Opening a File:
 Open() function is used to open a file, returns a file object
open(file_name, mode)
 Mode: Four basic modes to open a file
r: read mode
w: write mode
a: append mode
r+: both read
and write mode
Introduction to Internet of Things 3
File Read Write Operations
(contd..)
Read from a file:
 read(): Reads from a file
file=open(‘[Link]’, ‘r’)
[Link]()
Write to a file:
 Write(): Writes to a file
file=open(‘[Link]’, ‘w’)
[Link](‘writing to the file’)

Introduction to Internet of Things 4

File Read Write Operations
(contd..)
Closing a file:
 Close(): This is done to ensure that the file is free to use for other resources
[Link]()

Using WITH to open a file:

 Good practice to handle exception while file read/write operation
 Ensures the file is closed after the operation is completed, even if an exception is
encountered

Introduction to Internet of Things 5

File Read Write Operations code +
image
with open("[Link]","w") as file:
[Link]("Writing data")
[Link]()

with open("[Link]","r") as file:

f=[Link]()
print('Reading from the file\n')
print (f)
[Link]()

Introduction to Internet of Things 6

File Read Write Operations
(contd..)
Comma Separated Values Files
 CSV module supported for CSV files

Read: Write:

with open(file, "r") as csv_file: data = ["1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9".split(",")]

reader = [Link](csv_file) file = "[Link]"
print("Reading from the CSV File\n") with open(file, "w") as csv_file:
for row in reader: writer = [Link](csv_file, delimiter=',')
print(" ".join(row)) print("Writing CSV")
csv_file.close() for line in data:
[Link](line)
csv_file.close()

Introduction to Internet of Things 7

File Read Write Operations
(contd..)

Introduction to Internet of Things 8

Image Read/Write
Operations
 Python supports PIL library for image related operations
 Install PIL through PIP

sudo pip install pillow

PIL is supported till python version 2.7. Pillow supports the 3x version of
python.

Introduction to Internet of Things 9

Image Read/Write
Operations
Reading Image in Python:
 PIL: Python Image Library is used to work with image files

from PIL import Image

 Open an image file

image=[Link](image_name)

 Display the image

[Link]()

Introduction to Internet of Things 10

Image Read/Write Operations
(contd..)
Resize(): Resizes the image to the specified size
[Link](255,255)

Rotate(): Rotates the image to the specified degrees, counter clockwise

[Link](90)

Format: Gives the format of the image

Size: Gives a tuple with 2 values as width and height of the image, in pixels
Mode: Gives the band of the image, ‘L’ for grey scale, ‘RGB’ for true colour image

print([Link], [Link], [Link])

Introduction to Internet of Things 11

Image Read/Write Operations
(contd..)
Convert image to different mode:
 Any image can be converted from one mode to ‘L’ or ‘RGB’
mode
conv_image=[Link](‘L’)
 Conversion between modes other that ‘L’ and ‘RGB’ needs
conversion into any of these 2 intermediate mode

Introduction to Internet of Things 12

Networking in
Python
 Python provides network services for client server model.

 Socket support in the operating system allows to implement clients

and servers for both connection-oriented and connectionless
protocols.

 Python has libraries that provide higher-level access to specific

application-level network protocols.

Introduction to Internet of Things 15

Networking in Python
(contd..)
 Syntax for creating a socket:
s = [Link] (socket_family, socket_type, protocol=0)

socket_family − AF_UNIX or AF_INET

socket_type − SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM

protocol − default ‘0’.

Introduction to Internet of Things 16

Example - simple
server
 The socket waits until a client connects to the port, and then returns a
connection object that represents the connection to that client.
import socket
import sys

# Create a
TCP/IP socket
sock =
[Link](
socket.AF_IN
ET,
socket.SOCK_
STREAM)
Introduction to Internet of Things 17

# Bind the socket to the port

Example - simple server
(contd..)
# Listen for incoming connections
[Link](1)

connection, client_address = [Link]()

#Receive command
data = [Link](1024)
print(data)
[Link]()

Introduction to Internet of Things 18

Example - simple
client
import socket
import sys

# Create a
TCP/IP socket
client_socket
=
[Link](
socket.AF_IN
ET,
socket.SOCK_
STREAM)

#Connect to Listener socket
