With Python, you can build applications, such as Google, Instagram, Spotify, and Reddit. But to make such applications, you should have a strong knowledge of the fundamentals of Python. This course will be your step-by-step guide to master the fundamentals of Python programming.
The course starts by walking you through the process of setting up a Python development environment. Next, you will get an overview of the versions and history of Python programming and write a simple “Hello World” program to understand the structure of Python code. Moving along, you will get a detailed understanding of Python variables, datatypes, built-in functions, conditional statements, and loops. Next, you will learn how to work with lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries, strings, functions, modules, and packages in Python. Later, you will learn to debug your Python program, work with files, and learn how to handle exceptions. Next, you will learn how to use numbers and date and time functions in Python programs and study the concepts of package management. Finally, you will learn to create, activate, and deactivate Python virtual environments and get an overview of comprehensions and decorators.
By the end of this course, you will have gained the knowledge and skills of all the basic concepts of Python programming and will be ready to take up advanced Python concepts.
