Course Overview

In this course, you will learn about the Python programming language in the context of mechanical and aerospace engineering. You will start with the basics of Python, like variables, collections, and different types of loops. Once you have the basics out of the way, the real fun begins. You will learn how to: graph thrust available and thrust required, graph dynamic pressure during a rocket launch, and how to plot airfoil coordinates. Towards the end, you will get a strong overview of orbital parameters...Show More
