Course Overview
Introduction to Programming Using Python course is a comprehensive training program designed to introduce learners to the world of Python programming. Covering a breadth of topics from the very basics of running Python and writing simple scripts to more advanced concepts like handling exceptions, working with dates and times, and running Python scripts from the command line, this course is structured to provide a strong foundation in Python. Throughout the modules, learners engage in lessons that include practical lab exercises, reinforcing their understanding of concepts like variables, functions, modules, and file processing. They will gain proficiency in flow control with conditional statements and loops, understand how to manipulate strings and work with tables like sequences, dictionaries, and sets, and learn to utilize virtual environments for project isolation. By the end of the course, participants will have a solid grasp of Python that will serve as a platform for further learning and development in the language. Whether it’s for data analysis, web development, automation, or scientific computing, this course equips learners with the necessary skills to start creating their own Python programs and scripts effectively.
Learning Objectives
