The feedback I get from my students is that this Python programming for beginners course is well structured with lot’s of examples that take you from creating your first line of code to writing small programs like todo-lists.

After this training you have learned programming fundamentals like data types, variables, lists, loops, conditions and functions. You know what Python is and how to use its libraries. You have learned how to organise your code with modules.

This course is for beginning programmers who want to learn how to code. You need no prior programming experience as you will learn all the essential language fundamentals here.

The training uses many practical examples that show you how to perform common tasks. But learning HOW to do things is not enough. In this course, you learn coding by learning WHY you do things a certain way. Each example starts with a blank document so you can follow each step in the programming process.

How does this sound to you? Would you like to benefit from this as well? Then watch a few free chapters from the training and see if you like the style of the course.

Python für Anfänger – Lerne Programmier-Grundlagen in Python

Nach diesem Training hast du fundamentale Grundlagen in der Programmiersprache Python gelernt. Dazu gehören unter anderem Data-Typen, Variablen, Listen, Loops (Schleifen), Bedingungen und Funktionen. Du lernst, was Python ist und wie du in dieser Programmiersprache mit Bibliotheken umgehen kannst. Auch lernst du die ersten Schritte beim Organisieren deines Codes in Modulen.

Dieser Kurs ist für Programmier-Anfänger gemacht, die bei Null anfangen. Du braucht absolut keine Erfahrungen, nur Motivation, um in diese Welt einzutauchen.

Dieses Training nutzt viele praktische Beispiele und Übungen, die dir zeigen sollen, wie Python arbeitet und wie du es für deine Zwecke nutzen kannst. Denn es genügt nicht nur zu wissen, WIE man Code schreibt, du solltest auch begreifen, WARUM du deinen Code auf eine bestimmte Art und Weise schreibst. Die Übungen beginnen immer mit einer leeren Seite und gemeinsam wird jedes Projekt bis zum Ziel aufgebaut.
