Training description

4 weeks VZ

Available in German & English

In the certified Python Basics training course, you start with basic knowledge of Python. You will work with special Python libraries to process data efficiently and use variables, data types and basic functions.

You will also learn how flow control structures such as if statements and for loops dynamize the code. You will develop your own functions and import modules to extend the functionality.

Finally, you will realize a final project for automated customer inquiry processing.

In this training you will learn:

Python Basics

Flow Control

Python Basics

Chapter 1: Data Types

In this chapter, you will move around our programming environment - the Data Lab - for the first time and execute your first code commands. You will start by learning what data or texts represent in Python. Using a set of rules, you will learn how data is created, assigned and tested in variables. You will then learn how to read common error messages and practise how to use them productively in your day-to-day work.

You will also learn about basic standard Python functions such as type() or str() and use them in application examples. Once you have become familiar with the if statement and can use it to link the flow of your code to conditions, you will conclude the chapter with the first part of a two-hour mini-project: you will program a user interface that reacts flexibly to user input.

Chapter 2: Flow control

In the second chapter, you will work on two essential processes to make your code even more flexible: You will learn about lists and for loops. Lists allow more flexibility in storing data and are a prerequisite for advanced programming.</p

You will learn how to create, read and change them in a targeted manner. You will use lists to expand the functionality of your user interface from the first chapter and complete the first mini-project. You will then work with for loops, which you can use to automatically execute your code several times, taking you to the next level of programming.

Chapter 3: Functions, Modules and Methods

In the third chapter, you will round off your programming skills in Python and learn advanced techniques. This includes functions and methods. You will learn to define functions independently and thus structure your code better. You will also combine individual programming elements such as conditions, loops and functions in programs.

You will use various methods to learn how to import Python modules correctly and ensure functionality as a whole. Linked to this, you will learn how to read in and export data as a simple test. With the help of a one-hour mini-project with telephone data, you will consolidate what you have learned in the chapter.

Chapter 4: Python Applications

In the fourth chapter, the content of chapters 1-3 is repeated and rounded off with more advanced content. You will learn what dictionaries are and how they make your code even more efficient. You will become familiar with complex data structures that you will need for your final project.

In a four-hour practical project to create a complex user interface for the automated processing of customer inquiries, you will have to bring together all the content from the previous chapters.
