✥   Data Bus: It is used to transfer data between different components.
              ✥   Debugging: The process of identifying and removing such errors is known as debugging.
              ✥   Delimiters: Delimiters are symbols used to separate various tokens in a statement.

              ✥   Dictionary in Python: A dictionary is an unordered set of key:value pairs.
              ✥   Dictionary: A dictionary (dict) is an unordered set of key-value pairs enclosed in curly brackets:{}.
              ✥   Digital Footprints: A digital footprint is a trail of personal data that one leaves behind while using the Internet.
              ✥   Digital Rights Management: Digital Rights Management (DRM) is a way to control and limit access to intellectual property by
                  using technology.
              ✥   Eavesdropping: Attacks that steal data being transmitted over a communication channel are known as eavesdropping.
              ✥   Escape Sequence: An escape sequence starts with a backslash (\) followed by one or more characters.

              ✥   E-waste Management: Electronic products that are no longer needed, are broken, or have reached the end of their useful lives
                  are called e-waste. The e-waste includes smartphones, desktops, laptops, hard drives, cables, batteries, routers, switches, and
                  hubs that are no longer required.
              ✥   Explicit Type Conversion: Explicit conversion, also called typecasting, takes place when the programmer gives such instruction.
              ✥   Expression: An expression is a valid combination of constants, variables, and operators.

              ✥   Fabrication: Illegitimate information is inserted along with authentic data.
              ✥   Firewall: A firewall is a piece of hardware, software, or a combination of both that prevents unwanted access to a network.
              ✥   Flowchart: A pictorial representation of an algorithm.
              ✥   General Public License (GPL): Under the General Public License (GPL), users can use, modify, and share the software.
              ✥   Hacking: Hacking is the act of gaining unauthorised access to a computer system or network in order to steal information
                  (such as a password or private files) or damage the system or network. A bad hacker breaks into the system to do something
                  bad, while a good hacker tries to break into the system to find its weaknesses so they can be fixed.
              ✥   id(): Function id() yields the unique object identifier of an object.
              ✥   Identifier: An identifier is a name for a Python object.
              ✥   Identity Operators: Identity operators are typically used for checking the data type of an object.
              ✥   Identity Theft: When someone steals your personal information to commit fraud, it is known as identity theft (ID theft).

              ✥   Implicit Type Conversion: Implicit type conversion, also known as coercion, takes place when a data value is converted from
                  one data type to another by the Python interpreter, without explicit type conversion by the programmer.

              ✥   Index: Position of a character in a string is called its index.
              ✥   Infinite Loop: A while loop becomes an infinite loop if the test condition never yields False.
              ✥   Input Devices: An input device takes input from a user in the form of data or instructions.
              ✥   input(): input() function reads the text entered by a user until a newline is encountered.
              ✥   Intellectual Property Rights (IPR): Work done by a person or an organisation using their mind and creativity is called intellectual
                  property.
              ✥   Python Shell: The interactive Python interpreter is also known as the Python Shell.
              ✥   Interception: Unauthorised user gains access to private information.

              ✥   Interpreter: It converts the source code to an executable form and executes it instruction by instruction.
              ✥   Interruption: Network service is made unavailable to the legitimate user.
              ✥   Iterative Flow: Executing an instruction (Python statement) or a sequence of instructions multiple times is called iteration, or
                  looping.

              ✥   Keywords: Keywords (also called reserved words) are words whose meaning and usage is predefined in a programming
                  language.
