Approach that is taken

All basic foundation concepts around programming languages are first taught. This gives beginners the opportunity to grasp core concepts before jumping into code.

As an example the core tenets of object-oriented programming (like polymorphism, encapsulation, inheritance and abstraction) are taught so you will understand those concepts before writing classes in Python 3.

Although most of the basic material is covered in detail, there are always links and resources provided to get additional details or go deeper on any topic.

Following all sections, there are coding challenges to help drive concepts home and allow you to practice coding. All solutions are reviewed with detailed line-by-line code reviews to explain the answers to the challenges.

All resources provided
All the source code for topics including the solutions for challenges are provided
The software for the course Python 3 Interpreter and PyCharm IDE are FREE
All you need is a computer or laptop to get going this course!
