Python is a versatile language used in web development and data analysis. With the rise of AI, learning Python is more relevant than ever. This course blends Python fundamentals with AI-assisted workflows, giving you a modern way to learn programming and prepare for real-world projects. You’ll start with basics like print statements, variables, decisions, and loops, then move into core data structures. Each concept is reinforced through projects such as a receipt generator, smartwatch step tracker, or meal planner. You’ll also practice prompting AI to generate, refine, and debug code, building syntax skills and confidence with AI-enabled workflows. The course concludes with a capstone “Budget Tracker” app, where you’ll gather requirements, add features, handle errors, and create a graphical interface. With guided lessons, AI support, and six complete projects, you’ll gain practical Python skills and a portfolio of applications to showcase in your career.
