About Course
New to programming? Figuring out where to start can feel really confusing at first, but don’t worry, choosing Python as a beginner is a great start in itself, and here’s why.
Python is often recommended as a first language because the syntax is easier to read compared to many others. So, as a beginner, going ahead with a Python course can be really beneficial for you! In our course, you will begin with the fundamentals, which include installing Python, understanding basic syntax, and writing simple programs using variables and core data types. From there, the lessons will gradually move on to conditions, loops, and other concepts that are broader, more complex, but also (really fun!). The course duration will be approx. 9 hours and 44 minutes of learning content, divided into 16 modules, 131 lessons, and 10 coding challenges to help you understand the concepts practically as well.
You can utilize these lessons and practice tests at any given time, but just make sure that you only move ahead when you completely and clearly understand the basics first!
As and when the course progresses, you’ll also get to learn Python data structures such as lists, tuples, dictionaries, and sets, followed by functions that help you write reusable code. And then later modules will have object-oriented programming (OOP) with classes and objects, along with practical topics like file handling so be prepared and try to give as much attention as you can. By the end of the program, we have made it so that you will be able to have a solid foundation that can support further learning into backend development, automation scripting, or data-focused roles.
As for your course instructor, Rahul Janghu will be the one supporting you through your learning journey with his pre-recorded lectures. He is a software Engineer at Scaler, and has already helped 254,900+ learners begin their programming journey.
Because the course is self-paced, you can learn whenever it fits your schedule and receive the Scaler Certificate of Excellence after completing the lessons and coding challenges.
