Python Programming for Beginners: Zero to Hero Bootcamp

Install and verify Python by checking the installed version, downloading the latest stable Python from the official website, and completing the installer on Windows, Mac, or Linux.

Learn how to use Python comments to explain code, maintain readability, and disable code during testing, covering single-line hash comments and multi-line triple-quoted blocks.

Learn to run a Python program from the command line using python3, navigate directories with pwd and cd basics, and compare with the VS Code run button.

Learn to create and name variables in Python, with snake_case and uppersnake conventions. Explore types like text, numbers, booleans, and constants, with examples such as username, userage, isActive, and pi.

Explore Python data types such as int, float, string, and boolean, and learn how variables infer types and how to check them with the type function.

Explore strings in Python, learn that strings are sequences of characters created with quotes, and understand immutability, where modifying a string creates a new object and triggers garbage collection.

Explore arithmetic operators in Python with practical examples of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, exponent, and modules operator, including outputs and a hands-on code demo.

Discover how the Python if statement evaluates a condition to execute or skip code, using indentation and a colon, with an intro to else block.

Define and use the if-else statement to provide a plan B when conditions fail, illustrated by a score example that prints pass or fail and always prints program is completed.

Master Python's match-case syntax by building a program that matches a status variable against 200, 301, and 404, printing corresponding messages and a default status unknown when no case matches.

Learn to iterate through a string with a for loop in Python, treating the string as a collection of characters and print each character one by one.

Learn how to create an empty Python list, append items, and access elements by index, including using negative indices and handling index errors.

Discover how Python sets store unique elements without preserving order, emphasize immutable elements, and allow add and remove operations without updating existing items, with syntax using curly braces.

Create a set of fruits and add items, noting duplicates are ignored. Remove items and loop over the set to print each fruit, acknowledging that set order is not preserved.

Explore Python tuples as immutable, ordered containers that can hold mixed types. Compare them to lists, and learn packing, single-item trailing comma rules, indexing, slicing, and looping.

Learn to create and access tuples, use indexing and slicing, and iterate with for loops, then see that tuples are immutable and disallow adding or removing items.

Master Python dictionaries by using key-value pairs with unique, immutable keys and flexible values, and learn how dictionaries are mutable for creating, accessing, updating, adding, and deleting items.

Create a Python dictionary for a user profile with key-value pairs like name, age, and country, then retrieve values by keys and note potential updates.
