Description
Python is one of the most used programming languages in the world and many companies are looking for developers who know it! It was created in 1991 by Guido van Rossum with the main objective of being simple and easy to learn, compared to other programming languages where the learning curve is much higher. Python language has gained a lot of popularity in recent years because it is suitable for many applications, such as: web development, artificial intelligence, data science, big data, computer graphics, among many others.
This course was designed for those who are starting their studies in the Python programming language and do not have much time to take a bigger and more complete course. You will learn only the bases of this programming language. Take a look at the content that will be covered:
- Python installation
- Five main IDEs (Integrated Development Environment) to work with Python
- Variables and constants
- Math operations
- Logical, relational and conditional operators
- Loops, such as the “for” and “while” commands
- Functions
- Main collections, such as lists, dictionaries, tuples and sets
- Creation of custom packages
- Errors and exceptions treating
- Read and write text files
- Regular expressions
- Object oriented programming
Practical exercises are provided at the end of each topic, so you can practice what you learned during the lectures. The solution for every task is available for you to compare with your own implementations! We will use Google Colab on-line for the development of the examples, ensuring that you will not have problems with software installations or configurations on your local machine.
