Level 1 Python Certificate

This course is going to teach you the fastest, easiest and most comprehensive experience in learning basic Python. For those interested in computer programming, the Python language is a great option particularly because of its extensive support libraries. Additionally, the program provides a lot of learning ease and support. Python was created in the early 90s to code with greater uniformity, but with more simplicity than Java. Considered to be a ‘fun’ language, Python can be an interesting program, particularly for those who are creative, as it offers many dynamic features. Software development companies prefer to work with the Python language because of its versatility. Let’s have a look at what this course will cover and what the many benefits are:

In this course, you will learn:

  • How to write a code in Python
  • Understand the Python Shell window and how to use it in ‘interactive’ mode
  • The various functionalities
  • How to write a formal program using IDLE
  • The benefit of documentation and why it is vital to do so when coding
  • How to use the editing platform’s guidelines when writing a program
  • How to print using every form of data
  • About additional editing features such as indenting a region
  • Understand the various variables and how the Python language uses them
  • More escape functions (\n, \t) used for formatting strings
  • About ‘if’ statements or conditionals to determine program flow
  • About Python logical operators and how they work together with variables to complete and solve expressions
  • About four loops and nested loops and the differences in their functionality
  • About complex data structures and tuples
  • How to use python

Course Benefits:

  • Python gives you access to the vast random library
  • Practise writing code by creating strings
  • Understand time and calendar functions within Python and how to apply them
  • Understand how Python works with HTML form and why this is so important
  • You can utilise productivity and speed time
  • It provides third party modules
