Practical Python
Python is a high-level coding language used by companies such as Net?ix and Google, and it is also used for web development, game development, building apps, machine learning, and so much more. Studies have shown programming with Python to be one of the simplest and most popular coding languages when learning to code. Live online class covers not only the basics of Python coding, but also puts a strong focus on the elements of Python that are most relevant to Arti?cial Intelligence. Our classes are all project based. So rather than sitting there listening to lectures, you will be building projects throughout the class while learning all the essentials of Python coding.
