Python Basics: Functions and Lists

This lecture covers basic Python types such as int, float, str, and bool, along with methods, functions, and slicing for deriving values. It also explains conditions for code execution based on boolean expressions, loops, function declarations with return types and parameters, and default parameter values. Examples include writing functions to check if a string is all uppercase and to repeat a string multiple times. The lecture also delves into lists, their dynamic construction, and searching for elements within them.
