Course Description
Python is a feature-rich programming language. Developed in the 70’s, it is used by some of the largest corporations to handle data modeling, analysis, and even making a home “smart”. Even though the Python programming language has been around for quite some time, it continues to surge in popularity. In this intermediate class, instructor Jeremy Kurtz will guide you from the basics to the real work behind this feature rich language.By the end of this course, you will learn to use dictionaries to apply multiple elements to a single variable, and you will understand how to apply and retrieve information from sets and tuples. You will know how to use data from external files to enhance your own program, as well as how to import pre-built libraries and modules. Additionally, you will learn to create classes, functions, and customized methods to integrate business-specific methods, and you’ll understand the reasoning behind P.I.P. Finally, you will learn how to create windows and some of their basic components and functions.
