We all know that variables are a key part of programming and scripting languages, and sure enough, they are a big part of python. Here is how simple they are to implement:
#Today we are going to create and use some variables!#This is really cool!
#Hey just to remind you, these are comments that are here to make our code "self-documenting"!
#Python itself is ignoring the s#$t out of these!
my_books = 14
my_years_on_planet = 47
books_per_year_on_planet = my_books / my_years_on_planet
print ("Below is my books per year on the planet!")
print (books_per_year_on_planet)
Notice here I am using Python 3 so I need parenthesis around the objects and text that I want to print!
Here is the result of my program!
Python 3.6.0 (v3.6.0:41df79263a11, Dec 23 2016, 07:18:10) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
