This course is intended for

This course is designed for people who want to learn the Python programming language in preparation for using Python to develop software for a wide range of applications, such as data science, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and web development.

Overview

In this course, you will develop simple command-line programs in Python. You will:
Set up Python and develop a simple application.
Declare and perform operations on simple data types, including strings, numbers, and dates.
Declare and perform operations on data structures, including lists, ranges, tuples, dictionaries, and sets.
Write conditional statements and loops.
Define and use functions, classes, and modules.
Manage files and directories through code.
Deal with exceptions.

Though Python has been in use for nearly thirty years, it has become one of the most popular languages for software development, particularly within the fields of data science, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and web development?all areas in which Python is widely used. Whether you're relatively new to programming, or have experience in other programming languages, this course will provide you with a comprehensive first exposure to the Python programming language that can provide you with a quick start in Python, or as the foundation for further learning.

You will learn elements of the Python 3 language and development strategies by creating a complete program that performs a wide range of operations on a variety of data types, structures, and objects, implements program logic through conditional statements and loops, structures code for reusability through functions, classes, and modules, reads and writes files, and handles error conditions.
