 Keywords in Python

What are the keywords?

Keywords are the unique words reserved with defined meanings and functions that we can only apply for those functions.

You cannot use keywords as a name of any entities like variables, classes and functions.

Almost all keywords in Python are in lowercase except value keywords.

The all keywords in Python are have special meaning associated with them.

There are 33 keywords in Python while creating this tutorial

                                                                                                

and	as	assert
break	class	continue
def	del	elif
else	except	flase
finally	for	from
global	if	import
in	is	lambda
None	nonlocal	not
or	pass	raise
return	true	try
while	with	yield

Python keywords are distributed as follows:

1. Value Keywords: True, False, None.
2. Operator Keywords: and, or, not, in, is.
3. Control Flow Keywords: if, elif, else.
4. Iteration Keywords: for, while, break, continue, else.
5. Structure Keywords: def, class, with, as, pass, lambda.
6. Returning Keywords: return, yield.
7. Import Keywords: import, from, as.                              

Here is the keywords and their description
