        After the successful completion of session-I of MSP workshop with the motto “For MSP by MSP” we have stepped to the session-II of MSP workshop in which the programming language to be taught was Python. The date allocated for python was for 20th and 21st October. We had our trainer Namrata Giri and assistant trainers as  Srishti Rimal, Kumar Shrestha, Binod Jung Bogati, Roshani Acharya, Nikhil Pandey and Anshu Kiran Sharma who collaborated in every phase to provide better knowledge and quality learning to all the attendees attending the workshop.

          On the first day of session-II of  MSP Workshop all the attendees learned about the basic introduction, a concept of python that it is a high-level, interpreted, interactive and object-oriented scripting language and much more regarding the python. The way that trainers taught was explainable; no one had previously known that programming in python was that much easy. While compared to other programming languages we knew that the syntax used in python are mostly English language and could be easily readable and understandable.
