Course Goal
This class is designed to teach computer programming using the Python language. The goal is to introduce students to the Python language and its ecosystem. After this introduction level class, students will be able to continue exploring Python on their own.
To reach this goal, we’ll start with the basics (expressions, statements, data types, variables, conditionals, loops and libraries). We will learn Python programming by writing elegant syntax, making our programs easier to read and efficiently solve the problem as expected.
We will also work our way up to advanced concepts, such as lists/arrays, dictionary, exception/error handling, etc.
To make it more interactive and allow us to immediately see our programs’ outputs, we will use the Jupyter Notebook. It provides visualization and interactive coding along with markdown text notes explaining the progress of the programs.
Jupyter Notebook is run inside the web browser, so it will work on Mac, Windows and Linux computers.
