About the Course

In this course, you will be introduced to foundational programming skills with basic Python Syntax. You’ll learn how to use code to solve problems. You’ll dive deep into the Python ecosystem and learn popular modules, libraries and tools for Python. You’ll also get hands-on with objects, classes and methods in Python, and utilize variables, data types, control flow and loops, functions and data structures. You’ll learn how to recognize and handle errors and you’ll write unit tests for your Python code and practice test-driven development. By the end of this course, you will be able to: • Prepare your computer system for Python programming • Show understanding of Python syntax and how to control the flow of code • Demonstrate knowledge of how to handle errors and exceptions • Explain object-oriented programming and the major concepts associated with it • Explain the importance of testing in Python, and when to apply particular methods This is a beginner course for learners who would like to prepare themselves for a career in back-end development or database engineering. To succeed in this course, you do not need prior web development experience, only basic internet navigation skills and an eagerness to get started with coding....

Thanks Meta for a very comprehensive course.

Not only are fundamental computer science topics taught, but the job-ready skills needed for Python by covering it in breadth, but also depth.

I would recommend other courses for learning python, or the very least complementing it with other sources, because a lot of concepts and ideas aren't explored, they show them but they don't go in depth, so you end up knowing a lot, but not being able to understand the process. It's like solving a puzzle without knowing the rules of the puzzle, it works but long term it isn't a good idea.

I gave it 5 stars, because the certificate help me get a job, and I already knew python before the course, so it was worth it for me.

The course was designed in such a thoughtful manner, everything was organized and easy to follow. The Instructor explained everything in such an easy-to-follow manner that it really piqued my interest. Loved how everything the instructor explained was easy to understand, because of them I did not face many difficulties. Every lecture and assignment was really informative. It really helped me understand and test concepts. It was such a fun learning journey. Thank You, Meta. It was truly a wonderful experience.

Another great course from Meta. What I like about this course are the programming assignments to help us improve our coding skills and challenge us to think of solutions to the tasks. I recommended this course to anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of Python programming.

Because we have some Python basic knowledge, what I look forward to are the courses on AI, Machine Learning, Data Science and Analytics. Hope that you make those courses, Meta!

Here are the 5 stars for you! Great work!

I thought I knew Python pretty well but this course put that to the test. I learned new concepts such as testing with PyTest, the different types of web development frameworks, and how to write pure functions and determine relationships between classes and subclasses. The Course also delivered an overview of various Python libraries used throughout various tech career types such as data analysis and machine learning.

It is truly an amazing course and it has cleared all my perceptions. This course is fantastic. All the topics are well placed and they have explained everything in an elaborately. It will really help us to build a very strong foundation in the world of Programming. I am extremely proud of I had opted for this course and my hard-work is well satisfied. It is magnificent what I have achieved so far.

This course is very close to being excellent in many respects, but it has some very serious issues that make it a frustrating experience. The production quality is very good and the course includes some material that most Python courses completely overlook. In particular, I am very impressed that the course dedicates a week to talking about different programming paradigms.

Out of all the python courses available online I would rate this one the best. This course goes beyond the mere basics of the language and teaches valuable skills that are hard to gain on your own. This course opens the door to learn the language to its core. I really enjoyed this course, it challenges you sometimes but that is a good thing.

I passed some courser before this one, but I loved how this course synthesize hard concepts and let you know some of the common practices and paradigms in the area, plus is easier to understand these concepts that I mentioned with interactive material like the videos, reading, and labs!

I think its great course to start programming in python. One should have little programming concepts knowledge before enrolling in this course

Thanks to all the instructors for managing this course quite well

Excellent course. A true beginner might feel that the course is fast-paced. You can use Google and Youtube to get more explanations, exercises, and lessons.

This is what I did.

Good luck everyone
