Course Overview
This Python Programming training leads the student from the basics of writing and running Python scripts to more advanced features such as file operations, regular expressions, working with binary data, and using the extensive functionality of Python modules. This is a hands-on programming class. Python Programming is a practical introduction to a working programming language, not an academic overview of syntax and grammar.
