Description
Welcome to the 10-Day Python Blitz: Your Fast Track to Python Mastery!
Are you ready to embark on an exciting journey into the world of programming? Have you ever wanted to learn Python, one of the most versatile and in-demand programming languages today, but didn't know where to start? Look no further! My comprehensive course, "10-Day Python Blitz," is designed especially for beginners with no prior coding experience.
Why Choose the 10-Day Python Blitz?
I teach concepts by drawing on a board before going to a code editor. It is becoming increasingly important in a world full of AIÂ spam and automation to have a real human as close as possible... especially when you are learning a new (hard) skill. Don't underestimate the power of the old-school ways!
We will code out two different games which are a fun, incredibly effective way to learn how to program. You can be creative and add your own features or just follow me.
The course is divided into 10 easy-to-follow sections, one for each day, about 2 hours of content per day. You can do it at this pace, or you can slow things down, either way you can grasp Python fundamentals gradually. No need to rush; we will keep moving forward but you shouldn't feel overwhelmed.
Hands-On Experience: From lecture 2, you'll be writing Python code. I believe that the best way to learn is by doing, so be prepared to roll up your sleeves and tackle fun coding challenges.

What You'll Learn:
Days 1-3: Python Basics: Start with the fundamentals of Python programming. Learn about variables, data types, lists, and other essential programming concepts.
Days 4: Game Development: Weâ€™ll apply what youâ€™ve learned in days 1-3 by making a text-based RPG (no graphics). Thereâ€™s nothing better than game programming to work on your coding skils.
Days 5: Classes and Objects: We will tackle one of the most important concepts in programming: objects and classes. This will set you up to excel for the rest of the course.
Days 6: Remake of Day 4: Weâ€™ll take the same project we made on day 4, but with classes and objects. This is a fantastic way to build confidence in what youâ€™re learning. Instead of focusing on a completely new project, we can focus on applying the principals weâ€™ve just covered, on something that you are familiar with. No more â€œnew concepts.â€ Just applying what weâ€™ve covered.
Days 7-9: Game Development Part 2: Weâ€™ll make another game, but this time weâ€™ll make one that has graphics! This will introduce you to 3rd party modules and, like Day 6, will use everything weâ€™ve covered,
Day 10: Algorithmic Thinking: Iâ€™ll challenge you with various algorithms and code challenges. This will give you a chance to apply what youâ€™ve learned in a create and problem-solving manner. Nothing is more valuable than creative application when learning a new skill!
Why Me?
I've been a code instructor since 2014 and an engineer since 2004. I have a special passion for helping people start from scratch and having worked with 100s of learners in person, IÂ have seen and heard all the requests of new students and put them into practice. I use a lightboard to help teach concepts visually. In the world of AI, more and more content is detached and impersonal as you get farther away from a human. This will help you "see"Â the concepts from a real person!
Why Python?
Python is renowned for its simplicity and readability, making it an ideal choice for beginners. Moreover, it's a language with vast applications, from web development and data analysis to artificial intelligence and automation. Learning Python opens doors to numerous career opportunities. You wonâ€™t master it here, but you will get a solid grasp of what itâ€™s capable of and how it works
Join the "10-Day Python Blitz" and take your first step toward a rewarding programming journey. Whether you're looking to boost your career prospects or explore a new hobby, my course will equip you with the skills you need. Don't miss out on this opportunity to become a Python pro in just 10 days. Enroll now and unlock the world of endless possibilities that Python has to offer!

Who this course is for:
Anyone who wants to learn how to code and has no experience
Anyone wanting to begin their journey towards becoming a professional Python developer
Anyone wanting to establish good understanding of programming before jumping into another langauge
