Python contains the same basic structures as other programming languages and also offers unique functionality that makes your life as a programmer easier. This course will show you how to create basic programming structures including decisions and loops. Then you’ll move on to more advanced topics such as object-oriented programming with classes and exceptions. You will explore unique Python data structures such as tuples and dictionaries. You’ll even learn how to create Python programs with graphic elements that range from simple circles and squares to graphical user interface (GUI) objects like buttons and labels.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn how Python stores data and gets input from users.
