Hello, everyone!~

Today we will learn about Python

Twenty essential functions

Let’s learn together!

1. print() – Outputs content to the console

2. len() – Returns the length of a sequence object

fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
print(len(fruits)) # Output: 3

3. input() – Gets input from the user

name = input("Please enter your name:")
print("Hello, " + name)

4. str() – Converts an object to a string

number = 10
print("The number is: " + str(number))

5. int() – Converts an object to an integer

age = int(input("Please enter your age:"))
print("Your age is: " + str(age))

6. float() – Converts an object to a float

pi = float("3.14")
print(pi)

7. range() – Returns a sequence of integers within a specified range

numbers = list(range(1, 6))
print(numbers) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

8. max() – Returns the maximum value

numbers = [5, 10, 3, 8]
print(max(numbers)) # Output: 10

9. min() – Returns the minimum value

numbers = [5, 10, 3, 8]
print(min(numbers)) # Output: 3

10. sum() – Returns the sum of elements in a sequence object
