This course will help you understand tenants of coding and prepare you for the exciting journey toward becoming Python Coder.

You will be required to think of ways to break the code!

You will be challenged to think what is the other way to do the same thing and why did Python developer decided a particular way!

We will learn all major python concept but most importantly learn import and use of print command to learn python!

5. Soul and Motivation behind Python

Soul and Motivation behind Python

Our Motivation to Learn the Language:

1. Learn a language which has minimal complexity
2. Jumping into for loop and functions asap!
3. Python removed a lot of pedantic styles in coding and tries to make a guess of what you want.
4. The boundaries of code is indentation and not curly brackets
5. Made for non programmers to write code without getting into complexity
6. Compared to Java it is 1/4 the code but 4 times slow
7. The soul of the language is to interpret what you wrote and run it rather than being too strict about the coding rules
