Course Overview
Beginner friendly Python! Become a fluent Python programmer Learn the Python basics then build inspiring Python projects
Python for Absolute Beginners 2024
This Python course is different. It will not only teach you Python, it will give you a problem solving super-power using Python code! And that will make all the difference, especially if you are pursuing a career in data science, AI, web development, big data, web testing, or programming for smart devices in Python.
Have you always wanted to learn one of the world’s most popular programming languages? If so, this is the perfect course for you. It will teach you how to program in Python and help to prepare you for coding challenges frequently posed during job interviews.
In this comprehensive course, we will cover several key topics:
⁃ Why program? Why study Python?
⁃ How to install Python
⁃ Hands-on programming with strings
⁃ Print function
⁃ Variables
⁃ Conditionals
⁃ Loops
⁃ Data structures
⁃ Modules
⁃ Files
⁃ OOP and Classes and Objects
⁃ Time complexity
⁃ Big O
⁃ Stacks
⁃ Debugging
There are many exercises and projects throughout the course, some of our favourites are:
⁃ The Sierpinski Triangle
⁃ The Towers of Hanoi
⁃ And the Computer Vision capstone project
You'll also learn how to use python to validate credit card numbers, you'll be introduced to the data visualization and plotting package matplotlib, there's a short introduction to Pandas and you'll gain a thorough understanding of how to work with Jupyter notebooks.
In addition there is a section on Git and Github and you will learn how to work with virtual environments in python.
The author of this course, Giles McMullen-Klein, is one of the best-known Python and data science vloggers on YouTube where more than 500,000 subscribers follow his videos.
There are several reasons why this course is different and why Giles could be the perfect Python teacher for you:
· Engaging, informative and fun! Giles’ lectures are entertaining and will inspire you to learn Python
· Motivating ,enthusiastic and effective – Giles’ passion for coding in Python and teaching the language is infectious
· Develop a thorough understanding of Python
· Carefully crafted lectures and superb quality of production (Full HD videos) + animations and callouts
· Practice, practice, practice – the course contains dozens of exercises to help you master the Python programming concepts covered in the lessons
365 Careers’ team is very excited about this project. The creation of a Python course has been an ambition of ours for quite some time. but as we were not prepared to make any compromises on the quality of the course content, we needed to choose the right partner. Luckily, Giles was as excited about working with us as we were with him and together, after much hard, work we have created what we believe to be a first-class learning experience. We are confident that programming novices will benefit from Giles’ authenticity combined with our visual approach to teaching which includes our much-loved graphics and animations.
To date, employees from 80 of the Fortune 100 companies have taken our courses. 3,000,000 students have given us an average rating of 4.5 stars. And we are confident that this is the perfect course for you if you want to become a Python programmer.
Sounds great, doesn’t it? Are you ready for a life-changing adventure? If you are serious about learning Python, this is the only bootcamp you will need.

This is the best Python Course I have come across. I am still busy with it but the presentation is excellent. Concepts are well explained and the gradient at which new concepts are introduced makes it fun to do the course. I now know I can master Python!
