Course Overview
Welcome to one of the EASIEST Python 3 courses online! Learn by programming a fun game w/functions, loops & user inputs.
Python is one of the fastest growing programming languages. Everyone should know how to use Python. Even if you don't want to become a full-time computer programmer, Python can make you faster and more efficient at your job and even help improve your career prospects. Understanding Python can help you to solve complex problems that don't seem to have a solution outside of programming.
Learning programming can feel very intimidating at first. That's why this course is designed for beginners to get you familiar with programming in Python in a fun and accessible way. If you've never done any programming or even installed programming software on your computer, this is the course for you! Alex's explanations are simple and easy to follow. He doesn't use a lot of complex jargon like so many computer programming instructors do. He'll walk you through every step, so you can follow along and learn all of the concepts taught in the course.
As Alex will tell you in the course, once you have the basics of Python programming down, you can then go out on the internet and lookup other things that you want to code. You can learn as you go and program whatever you want, growing your skills every step of the way.
Here are just some of the things people do with Python:
Track the movement of stocks
Update you when a website changes
Create video games
Create websites
Do financial analysis
Supercharge your computer

love this course, very practically and address 90% of my questions. However, I wish a few things that can be share in the video 1) what short cut keys is he pressing to show us what's on the screen and we can follow it. 2) Stop copy and paste codes, please redo it with us which is why we are here to learn online at home. We got plenty of time to "learn" not rush it. Love it. thanks.

Awesomatic explanation of python. Hats off to their creative thinking i.e explaining the datatypes, variables and loop concept via creating a little game. It made this course more interesting!!!

I love how clear and cohesive the instructor's thoughts are when he explains everything. So far, everything makes sense, and I appreciate the explanation on why Python is used over other programming languages.

This is a fantastic course for a complete beginner like myself! It gives you a taste of some basic terminology and allows you to start creating a game from beginning to end in just a couple hours. Very quickly I was able to understand what the next steps were going to be, understand some basic logic, and enough understanding to even diagnose and fix my own keying errors along the way. This was my first time trying Python or any programming at all, and this course quickly unlocks some of the mystique behind programming, giving me the confidence in myself to continue learning more.
