About this event

Master Python basics—variables, loops, functions, and logic—through beginner-friendly, structured chapters. No fluff, just pure programming.


Overview:

Python isn’t just another programming language—it’s the one that makes coding feel less like a migraine and more like a manageable puzzle. Whether you're new to coding or just tired of Java shouting at you with its curly brackets, Python offers a refreshingly simple approach. This course takes you through Python’s essentials, from understanding what Python is (and isn’t), to working with variables, loops, and decision-making.

We’ve also included the good stuff—functions and collections—because knowing how to avoid repeating code and how to group your data is what separates a coder from someone who’s just typing fast. With six clearly structured chapters, you’ll pick up logical thinking and coding structure in a way that doesn’t sound like it’s been copied out of a textbook. Whether you’re coding for curiosity or future career goals, this course delivers clarity without the clutter.


Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand Python’s syntax and core programming structure effectively
  • Create and use variables for different types of data
  • Write conditional statements to control code logic and flow
  • Use loops to perform repeated actions in programs
  • Build and call functions for reusable code segments
  • Work with collection types like lists, sets, and dictionaries

  • Beginners with zero experience in coding or programming
  • Students needing structured programming content to build logic
  • Hobbyists exploring Python as a programming tool
  • Bloggers or analysts learning coding for data handling
  • Anyone considering switching from spreadsheet formulas to code
