Become a Python programmer in one week. Learn to code in Python from scratch with this hands-on courseAbout This VideoLearn how to program in Python in seven days with this easy-to-follow course.A 30-minute video lessons every day, followed by a 60-minute coding exercise that you can do on your own.Covers the latest Python version, 3.6, giving you an up to date start with PythonIn DetailWe get you started setting up your environment and the tools you need to start programming in Python. You will be learning about variables and operators and how to make use of them in Python programs. You will learn all about control flow statements and loops in Python and you will be using them in your programs to solve your coding problems.Then you will learn to use Python's advanced data structures such as lists and dictionaries. You will be able to organize in functions and save time coding by writing code that can be reused. Then, you will learn about Python modules and how to make use of them. On the last day, you will start interacting with files using Python code.The course will give you a strong entry point into programming in general and programming in Python in particular.This course uses Python 3.6, and TensorFlow 1.4, while not the latest version available, it provides relevant and informative content for legacy users of Python, and TensorFlow.
