By the end of this course, students will able to demonstrate FOUR completed real- world Python projects, which are also customizable- meaning advanced students can add more features to their projects.

==========> List of Projects:
1. A vending machine for a school 
2. A grading system that can calculate GPA for a number of subjects
3. An online pizza ordering system
4. An ATM that allows to withdraw and deposit money for a bank

To complete the projects, students will learn a number of Python concepts, debugging skills, and develop problem solving skills which are essential to become a software engineer in the future!

==========> The structure of the flex class is as follows: 
1. Every week students will receive several videos along with a weekly assignment. Assignments will have deadlines. Students are requested to submit assignment by the due time. 
2. They will need to create an online account by signing up here:  https://repl.it/
3. Students will need to share their projects so that I and other students can see the solution. (A solution will only be shared after the deadline)
5. Their coding assignments will be posted (URL) in the classroom so that other students can see the approaches and learn different strategies from each other
6. Shared projects must have comments using Python syntax so that other can clearly understand the solution
7. If students have questions. they can directly message me or post their questions in the classroom. Questions will also be posted in the classroom so that students can participate
8. Some assignments will have partial code which will be explained in the posted videos, students will need to complete the rest and share their solution in the class. It will be discussed in the classroom whoever has the most efficient coding strategy to complete the project and why the strategy is the best compared to other solutions

==========> Basic Concepts:  
This class also start with some basics of programming language- 
1. What is a programming language? 
2. Why do we need a programming language?
3. How does a programming language work?
4. What are binary numbers? 
5. What is a compiler?
6. What is an IDE? 
7. What is pseudocode? 
8. What is a syntax? 
9. What is debugging?  

These are some basic concepts that a programmer should know. But, unfortunately many students do not know these concepts.  The focus of this project-based Python course is to prepare students to code like a professional programmer! In this course, you will start learning Python from basics and start to write 'clean code' for your projects. Good programmers do not just write code for themselves. They write 'clean code' in a way that is understandable by their clients, managers, and colleagues.  Writing code means instructing the computer to do some specific tasks- mostly for fast calculation in a fraction of a second! In this class, we will explore some real-world problems just like the software engineers and solve them using Python programming concepts! 

Video lessons will be posted every week which are structured as given below: 

==========> Course Details:
***Week 1 and Week- 2
Students will be introduced to programming language
They will learn- 
** How to add, subtract, multiply, divide numbers in Python (integer numbers and decimal numbers)
** How to use simple conditions(if else) in Python
** How to use conditions to compare two products

==========> Week-3 and Week-4
*** Project- 1: Vending Machine
Students will be Introduced to the Vending Machine project. They will need to write all the steps that are needed to dispense an item from a vending machine.
They will learn- 
** What is a pseudocode and how it is used to design projects
** How to apply the concepts learned from the first two weeks to start writing code for vending machine
**if.. else if... else condition. This is an extension of if...else conditions

==========>Week-5 & Week-6
