Python 程式設計 1 級 - 適合初學者

There are hundreds of coding languages you can learn, from drag and drop languages like Scratch to web programming like JavaScript.  This course is to learn Python, one of the world's widely used coding languages.  

Python is easy to pick up as a beginner if you have coded before.  Python is a text based programming language that uses words, abbreviations, numbers, and symbols.   It is beneficial to have coding experience and feel comfortable typing. There is a lot of typing in Python.  

Teacher will model and guide students through each project.  It is beneficial for students to view teacher's screen as they code.  Students will need a PC or Laptop for class and they should feel comfortable opening and saving files.  Students should also be able to share screen for help.  

I like to use the Python application from https://www.python.org/downloads/.  Please download before class.
