Installing the Python 3 Interpreter , Visual Studio Code , Git , JetBrains Toolbox + PyCharm.

Write your first Hello World Python program. Understand the basics of variables and data types and explore the different types of data types in Python.Also learn how to take user input.

Learn about the different Arithmetic and boolean operators available to us in Python. Learn How to form expressions using operators.

Learn how to make decisions in the program based on some conditions. Learn how to use If-Else blocks in your programs so that your programs can have multiple paths of execution.

Learn how to execute a part of code multiple times. Learn different types of loops available in Python. Understand iterative logic by solving various problems on loops and implement code to print a myriad of different patterns. Understand nested loops string builder approaches. (operators on strings)

Functions are the building blocks of all productioncode bases. Understand the use case, need and advantages of using functions in programming. Understandhow to build atomic, generic functions. Understanding recursion and the differences between recursive and iterative approaches.

Lists and Tuples are core data structures offered by Python to store items of the same type together. They are a collection data type. Understand their use cases and how to effectively use them to solve various problems.

Understand the core data type string and the various functions and methods we can apply on it. Understand how to convert from strings to different data types and vica versa. Understand ASCII characters and slicing operations on strings. Also understand the concept of immutability on strings.

Understand the concept of hashing and hash valuesin programming languages. Understand how the Hashmap / Hashtable / Dictionary (all synonyms) actually works. Understanding the different methods on a Python Dictionary and exploring different iteration techniques.

Exploring the various builtin functions available to us in the Python programming language. Seeing and understanding the use cases of the most importantfunctions.

There are several inbuilt and 3d party modules that provide us with varying functionality for different things. E.g. There are inbuilt modules that can help us with File I/O, Multi threading and parallel processing, date time management, Database access etc. There are a plethora of third party packages that give us functionality for varying domains like Image Processing, Video Processing, Music, Physics, Machine Learning etc..

There is no limit to what we can build with computer programs, in this course I will demonstrate 6 short programs that will display just a few of thedifferent things that we can do with Python. We will build small CLI games, and even have a look at text2speech conversion with 3d party packages. We will finally see a program written by Anish that can hide text in images.
