 >Math Module - Overall explanation Source:  freepik Introduction Other than Python built-in functions, there are numerous functions which can be found in some packages which need to be imported when needed which are called modules .  Such a module in python is the math module. Python's standard library provides a module viz. math for math functions that work with all number types except complex numbers. The Math module in Python is enriched with plenty of functions. Note!: To use the math module one must import it first into the Python compiler one has been working with. The syntax to do so is given below: import math FUNCTIONS IN MATH MODULE ceil(): This function returns the closest just above integer when a value has been passed. Syntax: x = math.ceil(2.4) print(x) floor():  This function returns the closest just below integer when a value has been passed. Syntax: y = math.floor(2.4) print(y) fabs():  This function returns the absolute number in flo...

Interactive mode: Here, you don’t have to save any python file unnecessarily in order to run it. The user can type the code directly in the idle and the output of the code would be given instantly. 2. Script mode: In script mode, the whole program is written using a number of codes and then saved in an appropriate file which is then run. Here, at last the program generally gets converted into an ‘.exe’ file. Step I: Move your cursor to the top left corner of the idle box, there click on the ...
