Python Keywords and Identifiers ΒΆ

In this tutorial, you will learn about keywords (reserved words in Python) and identifiers (names given to variables, functions, etc.).
Python Keywords
Keywords are predefined, reserved words used in Python programming that have special meanings to the compiler.
We cannot use a keyword as a variable name, function name, or any other identifier. They are used to define the syntax and structure of the Python language.
All the keywords except True, False and None are in lowercase and they must be written as they are. The list of all the keywords is given below.

Note

Looking at all the keywords at once and trying to figure out what they mean might be overwhelming.
