Beginner Level
In this ten week course we are going to cover the basics of Python and build a great foundation to be able to move onto doing bigger and better things with the language. We will have a part two class that is a perfect addition to this one to get the full overview of Python. This class is going to be a lot of fun while we get to build games and projects and not just stare and replicate some boring lines of code. We hope to see you in class!
Learning Goals
