If you are new to programming and want to gain more insights into Programming, this course is something for you. This course aims to teach everyone the basics of programming using Python. In this course, you'll learn the fundamentals of the Python programming language, along with programming best practices. This course assumes you have some basic knowledge in programming. We provide a short online selftest to test it.
- You’ll learn to represent and store data using Python data types and variables, and use conditionals and loops to control the flow of your programs.
- You’ll harness the power of complex data structures like lists, sets, dictionaries, and tuples to store collections of related data.
