Description

Ready to jump into the world of Python? The Python coding language is a must-have skill for every would-be coder! Even if you don’t want to grow up to be a coder, you STILL will have fun by learning a new coding language with Dartanion Williams, your instructor. Dart brings wit and wisdom at the same time while giving you the reasons WHY you’re learning what you’re learning! With sample code you can follow along with and modify, you’ll be coding in no time! We’re tackling such topics like: What is Python? Why is Python? What can it do? Why is it useful to you? And can you learn it without knowing anything about it? (Hint: the answer is “yes”)

Let me guess…you’re trying to find a simple course on Python because you’ve seen the possibilities of this incredible thing called PROGRAMMING. But where should you start? How do you begin? Right here in this course, my friend. You’re going to learn all the buzzwords in Python, how to bend data to your will, and how to use that data to do cool things.
