Learn Python in 30 Days – Part 1: What is Python and How to Start (With Real-Life Analogies)

Welcome to Part 1 of the Learn Python in 30 Days series!

Ever talked to a computer ? No, really. Python is one of the easiest and most powerful ways to communicate with machines. And in this 30 days blog series, I’ll help you learn Python step by step in a way that feels natural, practical, and actually fun.

Why Learn Python in 30 Days?

There are many reasons why people choose to learn Python in 30 days – it’s simple, beginner – friendly, and opens the door to many career options

Lets begin Day 1 of our 30-day journey!

What is Python?

Python is a high level beginner friendly programming language used for building websites analysing data automatic task creating apps and more

Real Life Example :

Think of python as the universal remote control of the digital world. Whether you want to build a game, automate a boring task, or analyze your YouTube stats, Python helps you do it

Python is used by companies like Google, Instagram, Spotify, NASA, and Netflix!

Why learn python?

  • simple and easy to read
  • popular in job markets
  • massive community support
  • used in almost every tech field
learning Python is like learning how to drive a two-wheeler. Once you learn it, you can go almost anywhere in the tech world.

How to install Python (step by step)

Let’s get started

Step 1: Go to the official site

visit https://www.python.org and click on the “Download Python” button.

Step 2: Install it

Once downloaded, run the installer. Make sure to check the box that says “Add Python to PATH” before you click “Install Now.”

Step 3: Confirm installation

Open your Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac/Linux) and type:

python --version 

if it shows a variable like Python 3.11.x, you’re good to go!

Your First Python Program

Let’s write your first line of code. Open your terminal or Python IDE and type:

Python

print("Hello, Python World!")

This is like saying “Hi” to a new friend.

You’re introducing yourself to Python!

you should see:

Python

Hello, Python World!

Congratulations! You just wrote your first Python Program.

What are Variables?

Variables are like labelled containers or boxes where you store information.

imagine you have a box labelled “cookies” and you put 10 cookies inside. Later, if you want to change it to 5 cookies, you just update the value. Python variables work the same way!

Python

Cookies = 10
print(Cookies)

Output:

Python

10

you can also update it:

Python

Cookies = 5
print(Cookies)

Output:

Python

5

With consistency and the right approach, you can learn python in 30 days even if you have no technical background.

What You’ll Learn Tomorrow (part 2 preview)

in the next part, we’ll explore:

  • Data Types (like integers, strings, booleans)
  • Operators (maths in code)
  • More real life examples like shopping counting, and chatting

Stay tuned! Bookmark this blog and continue learning every day for 30 days.

Learning Python doesn’t have to be hard.

When explained with real world examples and step by step practice, anyone can do it – even if you’re from a non tech background.

Start small. Practice daily. Come back Tommorow for part 2!
