Python - Introduction to Programming (in English)
Worldwide Python is the most popular language for doing datascience, but at its core it is also a widely used general programming language.
In this introductory course we'll use python to show the most important tools in programming; conditions, loops, functions, and datatypes like integers, floats, strings, lists, tuples, dictionaries and eventually classes.
At the end of the course you'll not only be able to work with Python, but you will also be able to expand your knowledge in your own specific work field.
This course relies heavily on highly interactive (online or hybrid) sessions where we review what you’ve done in the reader. During a review the teacher will share his screen and go through the code asking you by voting and chatting to find the error or complete the code. These reviews are used to rehearse material, show tips and tricks, warn for common mistakes, explain error messages, show how to use the helpfiles and the program (IDE) in general, and overall to motivate you to keep up the pace. Participants report they are highly involved during these sessions and the course is consistently highly evaluated. On average this course is rated with an 8.2 (10% gives a 10!) by students and employees alike.
"Theo is a FANTASTIC instructor for this level of programming. Very friendly, breaks down complex/abstract concepts in a clear and beginner-friendly way, and keeps the presentations interesting through humour and relatable metaphors. 10/10”
