Quick Python Cheat Sheet for Beginners 🐍✍️

Python is widely used for data analysis, automation, and AI—perfect for beginners starting their coding journey.

Aggregation Functions 📊

• sum(list) → Adds all values
👉 sum([1,2,3]) = 6
• len(list) → Counts total elements
👉 len([1,2,3]) = 3
• max(list) → Highest value
👉 max([4,7,2]) = 7
• min(list) → Lowest value
👉 min([4,7,2]) = 2
• sum(list)/len(list) → Average
👉 sum([10,20])/2 = 15

Lookup / Searching 🔍

• in → Check existence
👉 5 in [1,2,5] = True
• list.index(value) → Position of value
👉 [10,20,30].index(20) = 1
• Dictionary lookup
👉 data = {"name": "John", "age": 25} data["name"] # John

Logical Operations 🧠

• if condition: → Decision making
👉 if x > 10: print("High") else: print("Low")
• and → All conditions true
• or → Any condition true
• not → Reverse condition

Text (String) Functions 🔤

• len(text) → Length
👉 len("hello") = 5
• text.lower() → Lowercase
• text.upper() → Uppercase
• text.strip() → Remove spaces
👉 " hi ".strip() = "hi"
• text.replace(old, new)
👉 "hi".replace("h","H") = "Hi"
• String concatenation
👉 "Hello " + "World"

Date Time Functions 📅

• from datetime import datetime
• datetime.now() → Current date time
• Extract values:
now = datetime.now() now.year now.month now.day

Math Functions ➗

• import math
• math.sqrt(x) → Square root
• math.ceil(x) → Round up
• math.floor(x) → Round down
• abs(x) → Absolute value

Conditional Aggregation (Like Excel SUMIF) ⚡

• Using list comprehension

nums = [10, 20, 30, 40] sum(x for x in nums if x > 20) # 70

• Count condition

len([x for x in nums if x > 20]) # 2

Pro Tip for Data Analysts 💡

👉 For real-world work, use libraries: pandas & numpy

Example:
import pandas as pd df["salary"].mean()
