Python is a programming language that is used for a variety of different web applications. In this Beginning Python learning Track, you'll establish the basics of this popular language.

Python is used for web applications, servers, information security, artificial intelligence, data science, mathematics, video games, and even robots. It is commonly used by many Fortune 500 companies and top technology startups. By the end of this Track, you’ll have what it takes to kick off your Python coding journey.

We'll start off this Track with courses in Python Basics, like syntax, numbers, and loops. Then we'll tackle Python lists and Python tuples. Next is our course on Python Functions—you'll learn about Python functions, how to send and receive values to functions, and about Python packing and unpacking.
