This course is designed to provide a solid foundation in Python programming, tailored for individuals interested in quantum computing. The first section begins with an introduction to Python from scratch, walking you through the installation of Anaconda on both Windows and macOS, followed by an overview of Python’s core concepts. You’ll learn to write your first code using numbers, variables, strings, and more advanced data types like lists, dictionaries, and tuples. By the end of this section, you'll have set up your environment and mastered key programming basics with practical hands-on coding in Jupyter notebooks.

In the second section, the focus shifts to control flow and data manipulation. You’ll explore Boolean values, logical comparisons, and conditional if statements, essential for writing decision-based programs. This section also covers loops (for and while) and the crucial commands such as break, continue, and pass, enabling you to manage complex iteration scenarios. By diving into practical use cases, you’ll also enhance your ability to manipulate data structures like lists. Furthermore, this section includes introductions to Python methods, zip, and random functions—tools that will help streamline your coding experience. The final section delves into more advanced topics like functions and object-oriented programming (OOP). You’ll start with basic function definitions, input/output handling, and advance to the practical use of functions in more complex scenarios. The object-oriented section introduces you to classes, methods, inheritance, and error handling, all crucial for building scalable, efficient Python programs. You’ll also learn about working with external libraries and creating your own Python modules, preparing you for more advanced programming challenges in quantum computing and beyond. This course is perfect for beginners who want to learn Python programming with a focus on quantum computing. It is suitable for anyone with a basic understanding of computers and no prior programming experience. Those with an interest in Python for data science, machine learning, or quantum computing will benefit from this foundational course.
