About this course

Python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world and a perfect first language. You'll write real code from the very first part — no installation needed, because we use Google Colab, which runs in your browser. You'll learn variables, decisions, loops, lists, dictionaries and functions, then build your own game. Each topic is taught by a different great teacher, so you get the clearest explanation for every idea.
