Python Programming | Beginner
Class experience
In this comprehensive course, our primary objective is to equip you with the essential skills to program in Python starting from the very basics. One unique aspect of this course is that we will utilize a cloud-based programming platform, providing you with a seamless and accessible environment for practicing your coding skills. Throughout the duration of the course, we will adopt an interactive and hands-on approach to learning. Each class will be dedicated to a combination of theoretical...
By the end of the course, students will learn the basics of programming in python, and be able to create simple programs that take user input and process it. In addition, students will learn how to store and manipulate data, and build programs that respond to various conditions.

Homework Offered
There will be a small homework assignment to practice what we cover in each lesson.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Progress is assessed though feedback on homework and live coding modules as we work through various coding problems and examples.Grades Offered
