Watch Promo Enroll in Course
This course teaches you computer programming in Python from scratch, and also the basics of machine learning in Python.
With this course you can become part of the Artificial Intelligence revolution.
You'll learn:
- How to write programs in Python
- The basics of desktop programming in Python
- Object-oriented programming and functional programming techniques
- How to use machine learning techniques in your code
- The basics of visualising and analysing data
- Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib, scikit-learn, Keras and more
- How to use ML techniques to make predictions about data series, spot clusters in data, automatically classify data samples and recognise handwritten digits.
Whether you're a complete beginner with coding or already know some Python or another language, this course can help give you modern computer skills to the point where you could apply for Python jobs, where available.
Python is one of the most popular programming languages today and is especially popular because of its support for machine learning and artificial intelligence.
This courses takes you all the way from writing your first "hello world" Python program to being able to write complex programs incorporating artificial intelligence techniques in which your software can automatically learn how to complete tasks.

I worked as a professional developer for 14 years for several different companies including Proquest, CSC and AT&T before going full-time as a course creator. I currently live in Italy, although as a native Brit you get to enjoy (or put up with!) my British English accent while following your chosen courses.
In my spare time I like to write science fiction, often in cafes, and I'm a fan of old books.
