Python Programming On-Demand: Level 1-Introduction for Programmers Course

***Note: This is an On-Demand, (self-study) course, 180-day, 24-7 access via the internet

(Applicable State and Local taxes may be added for On-Demand purchases, depending on your location.)
You may take this course at any time, there are no set dates. This On-Demand (self-study) training course includes expert lectures, demonstrations and exercises that cover the same content that is included in our instructor-led (ILT) class. Note: The 180-day course access period begins at time of purchase.

Overview

In this Python training course, students who already have a programming background will learn to program in Python. Students will learn: how Python works and its place in the world of programming languages; to work with and manipulate strings; to perform math operations; to work with Python sequences; to collect user input and output results; flow control processing; to write to, and read from, files; to write functions; to handle exception; and work with dates and times. This Python course is taught using Python 3. Differences between Python 2 and Python 3 are noted.

Audience Profile

Students new to the language who have experience with other programming languages.

Prerequisites

This course is specially designed for individuals with prior programming background. Also it assumes a working knowledge of Object Oriented Programming concepts. If you have no prior programming experience or are not familiar with Object Oriented Programming, you should consider our ILT "Python Programming - Basics for Non-Programmers" course. For details on this alternative slower paced course for non-programmers, visit:
Python Programming - Basics for Non-Programmers

What You Need to Take this Training

You will be able to access the course provided you have stable internet access. We highly recommend the use of two screens so you can view the instructor's presentation on a screen that's separate and alongside the screen you will be using to complete the labs.
