Description

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

Developers wanting to learn Python that's familiar with C# (although C# knowledge not required) - perhaps you've heard of Python and have always thought to learn it, this course is an ideal starting point.
Experienced developers .NET / C# programmers - This course teaches you the common fundamental programming practices and compares them both in C# and Python.
Anyone who wants to better learn both C# & Python - While I initially created this course for C#/.NET Developers that wanted to learn Python, my approach ends up being useful for anyone wanting to learn both languages since I cover the basics of programming in both.

5 REASON TO LEARN PYTHON
