Learn how to write Python scripts

Python is widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language.

It’s design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C. The Python language provides constructs intended to enable clear programs on both a small and large scale.

Overview

In this course, Participant will learn to write reusable scripts with Python. Through intensive exercises, participant learn to use Python in your operating system and application environments as well as apply built-in functions of the language and make use of external modules.

Prerequisites

Students should already be comfortable using the operating system (Linux, Unix, Windows, Solaris, Mac OS X, etc.) on which they will be running Python. While not mandatory, basic skills with at least one other programming language are desirable.
