What modules will be on the Python course?
During the Python course, you’ll cover everything from core software development concepts to troubleshooting and debugging Python code. You’ll learn how to write Python code, and understand how it fits into the wider tech-ecosystem.
Operations using data types and operators
Understand and identify different data types in Python and learn how Python assigns these data types to variables based on expressions. This module also covers how to handle and manipulate data effectively, and teaches you how to perform operations on different data types.
- Evaluating expressions
- Determining execution sequence
- Choosing the right operators
Decisions and loops
Learn how to control the flow of your program using conditional statements and loops. You’ll learn to make decisions and repeat actions in your code.
- Using and analysing branching statements
- Construction segments that use iteration
Input/output operations
This module covers handling inputs from users and outputs. That includes reading from and writing to files, and using functions to interact directly through the console.
- File input and output operations
- Console input and output operations
Documentation
Documenting your code with comments and docstrings is an important aspect of software development as it lets you keep track of what each bit of code does. Learn the best practices for structuring your code, including the use of functions and modules to keep it organised.
- Documenting code segments
- Best practice for code structure
Troubleshooting and Debugging
Learn how to identify and fix errors in your code. This module covers common error types, how to find out which error is causing the issues, and how to handle exceptions to make your code more robust.
- Detect and fix errors in your code
- Understanding and using code exceptions
- Performing unit testing
Using modules and tools
Expanding your knowledge by learning to use Python’s built-in modules and tools to extend your program’s functionality. This includes importing modules, using libraries, and understanding the Python standard library.
- Perform file system and command-line operations using built-in modules
- Solving complex problems using modules
Where does the Python course take place?
The course will be taught fully online with face-to-face classes with our experienced tutors, so you can complete the course from the comfort of your own home. The exam will also be taken online.
Because the course is online, you’ll need access to a computer and a reliable internet connection to take part. Our online courses are easy to get started with and support interactive learning, so you can engage with tutors in real-time.
What can I do after this course?
Python is a popular programming language and with the boom in AI, it’s becoming more popular. Understanding and being able to code in Python is vital for some roles and can be a great additional skill for many other jobs including:
- Software Developer
- Data Scientist
- Data Analyst
- Web Developer
- Machine Learning Engineer
- Automation Engineer
With the core Python skills taught in this course, additional training in machine learning or data are good options for developing your skills further.
