Python vs Java : Basics
Python is more productive language than Java. Python is an interpreted language with elegant syntax and makes it a very good option for scripting and rapid application development in many areas.
Python is a dynamically typed programming language where there is no necessity of declaring variables whereas java is a statically typed programming language wherein variables are to be explicitly declared.
Python code is much shorter, even though some Java “class shell” is not listed. This might be one reason why Python can be more productive.
1 .How to Run:
Java Program:
Type ‘javac MyFirstJavaProgram.java’ and press enter to compile your code.
Now, type ‘ java MyFirstJavaProgram ‘ to run your program.
Python Program:
type python3 MyFirstPythonProgram.py and press enter
2 .EXAMPLE:
Let us try the most famous first step programming as an example -“The Hello World”
Hello World in Java
Hello World in Python
3 .Variables: How to declare and Use
Java Code:
Python code:
Output:
a value : 10
s value: Var Declaration
4. Data Types
Java Data Types:
Python Data Types:
The data types defined in Python are given below.
5. Control Statements
If-else statements:
For python there are no parentheses needed around a condition, but there must be a colon afterward before the indented block. The indentation that is good formatting in Java is REQUIRED in Python.

7. Functions
java
python
Taking input from the user:
java:
Taking string and number as input from user:
python:
python3: it takes input as string whether it is string or integer
input()
python2: it has two ways to get input from the user
taking string input:
raw_input()
taking integer input:
input()
Have fun, keep learning, and always keep coding.
