Learn Python In A Day With 6 Projects

Learn Python in a day with 6 projects introduces beginners to Python as a fun, easy go-to language, covering core programming concepts and delivering six working applications.

Install Python by searching on Google and following the first link to the Python 3.6 download page.

learn to run Python online without installation using a split editor and an interactive shell, type code line by line or run saved programs, and bookmark for quick access.

Develop a bmi calculator by learning variables, functions including a format function, input, and if else statements to compute bmi from height and weight; view the final practical project.

Explore Python data types, focusing on integers and strings in the interactive shell. Learn how type correctness prevents errors and prepares you for variables in the next lesson.

Learn how to use variables in Python to store data, assign and update values (x=5, then x=10, y=30), and compute x+y.

Learn to use built-in Python functions like print, str, and int to convert between strings and integers, format outputs, and handle type casting in practical projects.

Explore the format() built-in Python function, learn how to replace placeholders with variables, convert numbers to strings, and format outputs such as years.

Learn how to use the input() built-in function to read a height in centimeters, convert it to an integer, divide by 100 to get meters, and display the result.

Define your own function with def, call it, and print results, demonstrated by a BMI function that asks for height and weight, converts cm to m, and computes BMI.

Build a bmi calculator with if/elif/else to tailor feedback by height and weight. Compute bmi as weight over meters squared, format to two decimals, and show underweight, normal, or overweight messages.

Save your BMI app code by copying from the interactive session into a new desktop folder, name the file, and run the function to calculate BMI from input.

Create lists in Python with square brackets to store color codes, access elements by index starting at zero, and extend, insert, or move items.

Explore how to use Python's random module to select a lucky color from a color list, using ranges and random choices with for loops.

Create a Python project that uses a color list and a random function to guess your lucky color, with up to three attempts and user feedback.

Explore how a set stores unique lottery numbers, ignores duplicates, and has no order when you add numbers. Use set intersection to find matches and determine prizes.

Practice implementing a while loop to prompt user input, exit on quit, and avoid infinite loops, including generating six lottery numbers with random and sets between 1 and 20.

Explore the difference between global and local variables, how scope affects access inside functions, and how to modify global variables using the global keyword.

Explore how values are passed to functions through parameters, how the first and second parameters are assigned to x and y, and how local variables affect the returned outcome.

Learn to extract keys, values, and items from a dictionary, then loop through keys to print them and their associated values using simple placeholders.

Learn to implement exception handling in a vocabulary app, validate word, definition, and data inputs, and use split with a separator to manage long text.

Create a Python vocabulary revision project that builds a key-value dictionary, prints definitions, and quizzes with input, scoring, and options to skip or quit.

Build a 100 game application in python, exploring objects, parsing objects, and inheritance. Apply these concepts in a witch hunter project where attacking witches earns points and levels you up.

Define a class as a blueprint, instantiate objects with a constructor, initialize name and level, use a representation method to show attributes, and compute attack using random scaled by level.

Learn how to pass objects between game entities, implement a hunter and a witch with attributes like name and level, and compute attacks and damage using level-based randomization.

Learn the concept of inheritance by creating a base class and a subclass, using super to initialize and override methods like attack, and exploring base and modified attack values.

This lecture guides building a Python hunter game (part 1), defining hunter and witch classes, battle logic with random attacks, critical hits, and formatted damage output.

Build a hunter game in Python by instantiating a hunter with a random level and generating witches with random levels, then drive an interactive loop to attack or stop chasing.

build a python to-do list app, add items to the list, and read from or write to a file as part of the project.

Learn to read and write files in python by creating a to-do list, opening a file, reading lines with a loop, handling newlines, pruning empty strings, and closing automatically.

Learn how to write a file in pipeful, define a function, and override the regional file with your text, with hands-on testing of basic file-writing concepts.

Build a Python to-do list with file persistence by adding, removing, indexing tasks, and saving updates via a user menu.

Create a final to-do list project feature by building a command-line menu, collecting user input, and parsing task descriptions and indices with string split and integer conversion.
