Who it's for: This beginner-friendly Python course is designed for absolute newcomers and self-taught learners who want a gentle, practical start to programming. If you’ve never coded before—or you’re switching from another language—you’ll benefit from Python’s readable, English-like syntax, its flexibility with data types, and its huge ecosystem of libraries. The lessons assume no prior setup knowledge and walk you through installing Python from python.org, opening IDLE, and getting comfortable with the interactive shell before moving into saved scripts—perfect for students, career-switchers, and anyone curious about automation, data tasks, or web development.

What it is: Python is a high-level, interpreted programming language known for its clean, readable syntax that feels close to everyday English. It’s general-purpose—great for automating tasks, analyzing data, building websites and APIs, scripting, and powering AI/ML workflows—yet beginner-friendly enough for your very first line of code. Python uses indentation instead of braces to structure code, includes a rich standard library for common tasks, and has a massive ecosystem of third-party packages you can install with pip. It runs on all major operating systems, scales from quick prototypes to production apps, and is supported by an active global community and excellent documentation.

What you'll learn: You’ll install Python and IDLE correctly (including adding Python to your PATH), understand when to use the interactive shell vs. script files, and write your first program. Core concepts include variables, strings, integers, floats, and booleans; printing and basic math; string concatenation and indexing; integer vs. float division; type conversion; and user input. You’ll also practice clean coding habits—comments, readable variable names, and proper indentation—and build a small triangle-area calculator to connect inputs to outputs. Along the way, you’ll learn how to lean on the official Python documentation and why that’s a better first stop than crowd-sourced answers.
