While there are other ways of working with code, these are the most important ones for new programmers to learn.

When dealing with logic control, a developer needs to be aware of how data is being transferred, particularly when working with user input, network connections, or filesystem access. Python has three data streams for input/output (I/O). sys.stdout is the standard output stream; it handles the output of print() and Python expressions. sys.stdin is the standard input stream; it is used for all interactive input. sys.stderr is the standard error stream; it only takes errors from the program, but also handles the interpreter...
