Introduction to Python — For JavaScript Developers

Welcome! This notebook is designed to teach you Python by building on what you already know from JavaScript.

Each section follows the same pattern:

1. Concept — a short explanation comparing Python to JavaScript
2. Examples — runnable code cells showing how it works
3. Exercise — a challenge for you to solve using what you just learned

How to use the notebooks: Read each section, run the example cells, then complete the exercises in the cells marked with ✏️. Remove the pass placeholder and write your solution.
