Python Programming Fundamentals

This course is intended for those who are new to programming or have little programming experience that want to begin their own software development or data science adventure with Python. Throughout the course, learners will gain a solid understanding of algorithmic thinking, Python syntax, code testing, debugging techniques, and modular code development--essential skills for a successful career in software engineering, development, or data science. At the end of this course, you'll be able to: - Take an understanding of how to solve problems by using programming logic and algorithms. Utilize commonly used functions, conditional statements and loops to create Python programs and scripts. Utilize using the VS Code programming environment to improve your coding skills. Utilize methods for testing and debugging to ensure the reliability of code. Perform mathematical and logical operations on data. In the last week of the course, you will apply your newly learned algorithms and programming abilities to solve a data analysis issue such as analysing the heart-rate data.
