Introduction to Python Programming
Description
Python is an very versatile programming language.
From scripts and controlling operating systems to
high-end graphical data manipulation programs, Python
offers a solution for almost any type of programming
task, no matter how difficult. Python is portable
to almost any platform, from cellphones to mainframes.
It is an object-orientated open source programming
language suitable for almost any task.
This course starts by introducing the student to
the Python programming language, covering areas such
as variables, comments, loops, conditional statements,
etc. It then goes on to the fundamental building blocks
that makes Python such a versatile language, like
lists, tuples and dictionaries. The course then elaborates
on the other structures within Python like functions,
modules, packages and objects. The student gets a
brief overview of object-oriented principles after
which the course delves more deeply into the subject
using Python.
The final modules introduce the student to the more
advanced features of Python, from the built-in documentation
system to the building of web applications. The course
does not go into the advanced areas in depth, as these
subjects will be covered further in other advanced
Python courses provided by AgileWorks. Most of these
modules merely introduce the student to the different
areas in which Python can be applied.
