About
We'll be learning the fundamentals of the Python programming language. This course is intended for complete beginners, so we'll be starting with the basics and then build upon our knowledge in later sessions.
We'll be going over some fun exercises and challenging problems to make coding fun! You'll get to meet new people and compete in short, friendly competitions.
