This course path introduces the core skills needed to start programming with Python. It is designed for beginners who want to write simple programs, solve coding problems, and understand how Python code is structured. You will practice defining functions, using loops, working with strings, and organizing data with lists, dictionaries, sets, and tuples. You will also learn how to identify and fix common errors so you can troubleshoot your code more effectively. As you progress, you will explore object-oriented programming concepts, including classes and the structure of Python objects. By the end, you will have a practical foundation for continuing into more advanced programming topics.
