Whether you are new to programming or an experienced developer, this course can help you get started with Python. Josiah Learning Centre provides an overview of the installation process, basic Python syntax, and an example of how to construct and run a simple Python program.
At the conclusion: The first session, students will compile their work to create an online touch screen program for a pizza store.
The second session, students will make a graph to show all the possible outputs of a function and will make dynamic, interactive works of art.
The student needs to have his/her Computer (Mac or Window) to download the PyCharm.
