What Is On Offer – The Raspberry Pi Foundation have a number of different Learning Paths for Python. These Learning Paths link to tutorials hosted at the Raspberry Pi Foundation Learning website and take you from an Introduction to Python to more Advanced Python including use of Python for purposes of Machine Learning.

Here are the different Learning Paths you will be able to access through this track.

1. Introduction to Python
2. More Python
3. Advanced Python I
4. Advanced Python II
5. Machine Learning with Python

What is Python –

Python is an interpreted, object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. Its high-level built in data structures, combined with dynamic typing and dynamic binding, make it very attractive for Rapid Application Development, as well as for use as a scripting or glue language to connect existing components together. Python’s simple, easy to learn syntax emphasizes readability and therefore reduces the cost of program maintenance. Python supports modules and packages, which encourages program modularity and code reuse. The Python interpreter and the extensive standard library are available in source or binary form without charge for all major platforms, and can be freely distributed.

Here some of the benefits of learning Python –

• Pick up a mainstream programming language that is used widely by business and in opensource
• Work in a productive coding environment compared to other languages like C# and Java.
• Work with a programming language which is easy to read, even if you’re not a skilled programmer. Anyone can begin working with the language.
• Work with a programming language which has easy syntax and enjoy writing code
• Dive deep into object oriented programming concepts
• Write programs for embedded devices (Raspberry Pi, ESP32, etc.) and develop/create electronics projects
• Gain skills and understand how to interface with most modern web technologies i.e. API’s, Databases, Rule engines, etc.
