Why Programming?

Writing programs can be a very creative and rewarding activity. You can write programs for many reasons

• Automating your manual mundane tasks
• Building robots
• Building the website for your company or creating your own blog
• Building games
• Analyzing data and gain meaningful insights from it

To interact with computers we have to give them instructions. For example, you may write below instructions in your robot

• Move left and then
• Stop at the kitchen and then
• Wash utensils

A set of these instructions is called a Program. We use a programming language to create programs and Python is one such programming language. Just like English and French are languages for Human, Python is a programming language for computers.
