INTRODUCTION TO PYTHON:
Python programming language was developed by Guido Van
Rossum in February 1991. This programming language was
named after the famous BBC comedy show names Monty
Python’s Flying Circus. Python is a interpreted language.
Python is influenced with two programming language:
❖ ABC language
❖ Modula-3
Modes of working in python:
❖ INTERACTIVE MODE: Also called as “IMMEDIATE MODE”.
This mode does not commands in the form of a program and
also the output is sandwiched between commands. It is
suitable for testing code.
❖ SCRIPT MODE: It is useful for creating programs. User has to
save the program and then run the program where the
output is given as a whole.
ADVANTAGES OF PYTHON
✓ EASY TO USE:
Python is compact and very easy to use object-
oriented language with very simple syntax rules. It is a very
high-level language and highly programmer friendly
✓ INTERPRETED LANGUAGE:
Python is a interpreted language. It makes python
an easy to debug language and it is suitable for beginners to
advanced users.
✓ ITS COMPLETENESS:
For most types of required functionality is
available through various modules of python standard
library.
✓ CROSS-PLATFORM LANGUAGE:
Python can run equally well on variety of platforms
like Window, Linux, Macintosh and many more. Thus, python
is a portable language.
✓ FREE AND OPEN SOURCE:
6
Python is freely available with its source code.

✓ VARIETY OF USAGE APPLICATION:
Python has evolved into a powerful, complete
and useful language. Python is being used in many Fields
and application, some are: Graphical User Interface,
Scripting, etc...
✓ AVAILABILITY OF LIBRARIES:
There are over 137,000 python libraries present
today and they play a vital role in developing machine
learning, data science, data visualization, image and data
manipulation application.
✓ EXPRESSIVE LANGUAGE:

INTRODUCTION TO MOVIE
TICKET BOOKING SYSTEM
The Movie Ticket Booking System is a software application designed
to simplify the process of booking tickets for movies in cinemas. It

seats, and complete their bookings online or at the box office.
This system replaces the traditional manual ticket booking process,
reducing human error, minimizing long queues, and improving
customer satisfaction. It benefits both customers and theater
administrators by automating key processes such as seat
reservation, ticket issuance, and payment processing.
The system can be implemented as a web-based application, mobile
app, or kiosk interface, offering flexibility and convenience. Features
often include real-time seat availability, secure payment gateways,
movie trailers, and booking history.
Overall, the Movie Ticket Booking System enhances the movie-going
experience by making it faster, more efficient, and user-friendly.
