Python- Course Syllabus

Programming Essentials in Python course (short form: Python Essentials) covers all the basics of programming in Python, as well as general computer programming concepts and techniques.

The course also familiarizes the student with object-oriented approach.

Students who complete the course will be able to accomplish coding tasks related to the basics of programming in the Python language, and to understand the fundamental notions and techniques used in object-oriented programming.
