Description
We love Programming. Our aim with this course is to create a love for Programming.
Python is one of the most popular programming languages. Python offers both object oriented and structural programming features.
We take an hands-on approach using a combination of Python Shell and
PyCharm as an IDE to illustrate more than 150 Python Coding Exercises,
Puzzles and Code Examples.
