About Course
The programming world has been charmed by Python, being the most popular programming language in 2022 with an estimated market share of 29.53%.
One of the key reasons for its popularity is the simplicity and readability of the language. This assuages new learners by assuring them that the learning curve will be a gentle one.
This course targets non-technical participants who wish to first build a strong foundation in the python programming language and next prepares them to specialise in specific technical areas such as machine learning, web services, and data visualisation.
