Chapter 01

Variables as Labels

In Python, variables aren't just boxes; they are labels (or references) that point to data living in memory.

player_name = "Alice"

score = 100

# Updating the score

score = score + 50

graph LR A["Variable: player_name"] -->|References| B("String: 'Alice'") C["Variable: score"] -->|References| D("Integer: 150") style A fill:#1e293b,stroke:#38bdf8,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff style C fill:#1e293b,stroke:#c084fc,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff style B fill:#0f172a,stroke:#4ade80,stroke-width:2px,stroke-dasharray: 5, 5,color:#fff style D fill:#0f172a,stroke:#fbbf24,stroke-width:2px,stroke-dasharray: 5, 5,color:#fff linkStyle 0 stroke:#38bdf8,stroke-width:2px linkStyle 1 stroke:#c084fc,stroke-width:2px

Chapter 02

Logic & Decisions

Programs need to make decisions. The if statement creates a fork in the road.

if is_raining:

print("Take an umbrella")

else:

print("Wear sunglasses")

Chapter 03

Loops & Iteration

The for loop iterates over items in a sequence.

for fruit in fruits:

print("I like " + fruit)

graph TD Init["List: Apple, Banana, Cherry"] --> Select{"More items?"} Select -- Yes --> Pick["Pick Next Item: 'fruit'"] Pick --> Action["Print 'I like fruit'"] Action --> Select Select -- No --> Done([Finish Loop]) style Init fill:#1e293b,stroke:#fff,color:#fff style Done fill:#1e293b,stroke:#fff,color:#fff style Select fill:#334155,stroke:#4ade80,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff style Pick fill:#1e293b,stroke:#38bdf8,color:#fff style Action fill:#1e293b,stroke:#fbbf24,color:#fff linkStyle 3 stroke:#4ade80,stroke-width:2px,stroke-dasharray: 5, 5

Memory Visualization

Chapter 04

Lists & Indices

Visualizing arrays in memory. Each slot has an integer index.

my_list = ["Data", 42, True]

print(my_list[1]) # Output: 42

Chapter 05

Sequence Diagrams

Visualize the timeline of a function call. Code is not just static text; it is an event in time.

def greet(name):

return "Hello " + name

sequenceDiagram participant Main participant Func as greet() Main->>Func: Call with "User" activate Func Note right of Func: Process Data Func-->>Main: Return "Hello User" deactivate Func
Chapter 06

Data Visualization

Using libraries like matplotlib to render data.

plt.plot(x, y)

plt.show()

Chapter 07

Recursion & Canvas

Visualizing Recursion. A function that calls itself can create complex, natural patterns like this fractal tree.

def draw_branch(len):

if len > 5:

draw_line(len)

draw_branch(len * 0.7)

Interactive 3D
Chapter 08

3D Programming

Python is used for 3D Game Dev (Blender, Ursina). This requires thinking in X, Y, and Z coordinates.

cube = Entity(model='cube')


def update():

cube.rotation_y += 1

cube.rotation_x += 0.5

Chapter 09

Vector Graphics (SVG)

Scalable Vector Graphics are defined by math, not pixels. This is crucial for coordinate geometry and plotting.

<svg width="200">

<circle cx="50" cy="50" />

<rect x="100" y="10" />

</svg>

(x, y)
Chapter 10

Physics Simulation

Libraries like pymunk or pygame handle gravity, collisions, and forces.

space.gravity = (0.0, -900.0)

body = Body(mass=1, moment=10)

body.position = (50, 100)

space.add(body)

Chapter 11

Geospatial Maps

Python libraries like folium allow you to visualize data on interactive maps using latitude and longitude.

import folium


m = folium.Map(location=[51.5, -0.09])

folium.Marker([51.5, -0.09], "Hi!").add_to(m)

Chapter 12

Network Graphs

Complex relationships (like social networks) are visualized using nodes and edges. networkx is the Python standard.

import networkx as nx


G = nx.Graph()

G.add_edge(1, 2)

G.add_edge(1, 3)

nx.draw(G)

Chapter 13

The Console (CLI)

Sometimes the best visual is text. The CLI (Command Line Interface) is where Python lives natively.

print("Hello World")

input("Enter command: ")

user@python-vm:~

$ python3 script.py
