    Step 3:    Click on File Menu Æ New
                                                                                        File option  and  write  the
                                                                                        program  and  save  file  with
                                                                                        the .py extension.

                     Step 4:    Now  you  can  compile  and
                                execute this program by
                                pressing  F5 key. You will

                                get the result on the Python
                                shell.

                     3.1.2 Creating First Program
                     You have to create your first program, which will print "Hello World" on the screen.

                     To do this, type the following code:

                            # My first Program
                            print("Hello World")
                     Save the program and execute it. Python will give the following single-line output:

                            Hello World

                     You may notice that you wrote two lines of code but got one line of output—why is that?
                     This is because the # character marks a comment, and comments are ignored by the Python

                     interpreter when the program runs.

                     3.1.3 Understanding print() Function

                     print() function is used to display output.

                     Syntax: print(variable/message)
                     Example 1: Printing value

                     A=5
                     B=6
                     S=A+B

                     print(S)                      # here variable S is given and its value will be
                                                 printed.
                     You will get output as 11, because the value of S is 11.

                                                                               Python Programming                       31
