As I have been working to develop my skills in the Python programming language, I have learned that Python has several in-built modules. In order to discover which modules are already installed in the version of Python in use, simply type, help(‘modules’) in the Python program and a complete list will be printed out, as seen from the code below:-

The module that I am interested in for this post is Python’s in-built math module. In order to find out all of the methods that are available in the math module, then just type, help(‘math’), and a complete listing of all of the methods will come on the screen, as seen below:-

In addition to methods, the math module also has certain values programmed into the module, as seen in the screenshot below:-

Because I began my foray in the Python programming language by going onto the Kaggle data science website, I jumped right into machine learning before I had learned all of the great modules that are…
