Python Foundation - Quick Jump Start for Programmers

Description

Python is an excellent language to start programming with; it is powerful and easy to get started with. You can see results and run the code right away and most computers require truly little setup to start coding. This course is divided into four parts. You will first learn the basics and fundamentals of Python programming then improve with the help of practice exercises, work with the coding challenge, and finally implement all your learning to solve a project challenge. In the first part, with the help of video lectures and working examples, you will learn the language and its features that will help you build a solid foundation. In the second part, we will start practicing what we learned by doing simple practice exercises. These exercises will be super simple, and they will help you perfect and play with what you learned in the given section. The third part is to solve some complex coding challenges. These challenges will present you with a random problem combining everything that you learned in the previous sections. The fourth and final step is to apply everything you have learned and solve a business problem with the help of a micro-project. By the end of this course, you will be ready to work on real-world Python projects.
