Beginner-friendly Python basics in about 100 minutes using Jupyter Notebook; learn what Python is, why it's popular, and how to run code with print, code and markdown cells.
Learn how variables store information and are named with descriptive identifiers, using assignment to set values; explore Python types, including integers, floats, strings, booleans, the type function, and type conversion.
Learn how user input powers interactive Python programs with the input function. Master arithmetic and boolean operators, modulus for even checks, and comparisons for true/false decisions.
Explore how Python stores text as strings, uses zero-based and negative indexing, slices substrings, and employs methods like upper, lower, strip, and f-strings for data preprocessing.
Learn to write reusable Python functions using def, parameters, and return, follow the DRY principle, and explore modules like random and libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, and TensorFlow.
Learn to read and write files in Python using open, with mode choices (r, w, a), and handle errors with try, except, and finally for reliable programs.
Learn Python by building a simple expense tracker using functions, file I/O, user inputs, loops, and exception handling.
Python Programming for Beginners: Learn Python in 100 Minutes with Jupyter Notebook
Want to learn Python but don't know where to start?
This course was designed specifically for complete beginners who want a fast, practical, and beginner-friendly introduction to Python programming.
Unlike many Python courses that require installing multiple tools and writing code in traditional IDEs, this course uses Jupyter Notebook exclusively. Lessons are presented using Markdown cells that act as interactive slides, making learning easier, cleaner, and more engaging.
In less than two hours, you'll learn the essential Python concepts used by developers, data scientists, and machine learning engineers.
We start from the very beginning, assuming no prior programming experience.
Throughout the course, you'll learn how to:
• Work with variables and data types
• Receive input from users
• Perform mathematical operations
• Manipulate strings
• Use lists, tuples, dictionaries, and sets
• Write conditional statements and loops
• Create reusable functions
• Read from and write to files
• Handle errors gracefully
• Build a simple Personal Expense Tracker project
Every lecture includes explanations, examples, exercises, and solutions inside Jupyter Notebook.
By the end of this course, you'll have a solid understanding of Python fundamentals and be ready to continue your journey into Data Science, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning.
Whether your goal is becoming a Python developer, analyzing data, training AI models, or simply learning a valuable new skill, this course provides a strong foundation to help you move forward.
