Introduction to Python Programming
In this course, you will learn everything you need to know to start programming in Python.
Python is a highly popular programming language and is widely sought after for various job
roles. Whether you are looking to automate your tasks, write scripts or pursue a career in
programming, Python is the language for you. The language is known for its simplicity, ease
of use and powerful capabilities, which is why more developers are switching to Python
every day.
Python: The Beginner-Friendly Language
If you're new to programming, you may find that many programming languages are not very
beginner-friendly. They have complex syntax and small mistakes can cause errors. However,
Python is different. It's easy to learn and use. You simply type out what you want to do, and
Python does it. There's not much syntax to learn, so the learning curve is nearly zero. You
can start writing your first program within seconds of starting to learn Python.
What You'll Learn
In this course, you'll learn everything you need to know to get started in Python. The lessons
are specifically designed with examples to help you along the way. Whether you're a
complete beginner or have some programming experience, this course is perfect for you.
Why Learn Python?
There's no reason not to learn Python! Many people might feel intimidated or think it's too
difficult, but don't worry, this course will guide you through all the core concepts in Python so
you can start programming confidently and writing awesome scripts and programs.
I'm excited to be teaching you Python and can't wait for you to get started in this course.
How to Install Python
In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Python onto your computer and a text editor to
write your programs in.
First, head over to your web browser and go to www.python.org/downloads. On this page,
you'll see two buttons:
Download Python 3.6.3 (the latest version of Python 3)
Download Python 2.7.14 (the latest version of Python 2)
There are two major versions of Python currently in use: Python 2 and Python 3. Python 2 is
a legacy version that's no longer officially maintained or supported, while Python 3 is the
newest version that's getting actively maintained and supported.
While Python 2 has been around longer and has more libraries and code written for it,
Python 3 is the future of Python and has many advantages. Ultimately, it's up to you to
decide which version to download.
Python 3: The Future of Python
In the next five or ten years, it is highly likely that Python 2 will no longer be in use. The
newest version, Python 3, is the future of Python and is being maintained going forward.
Therefore, this tutorial will focus on teaching Python 3.
