Enter the World of Coding
You are going to learn the real programming — the same type of programming Google engineers are doing. With Python, you can accomplish any challenging tasks by writing the code.
From the Basic to the Practical
You will start with learning the fundamental concepts of Python and the basic language contructs. However, we will lead you to the practical and exciting side of Python quickly and let you make real world applications on machine learning, game development and web servers.
Machine Learning with Python
Have you ever wondered how the engineers built the self-driving cars and the Go master to beat the top human players? The answer is machine learning. With Python, you can build your own machine learning algorithm to make your computer smart!
Game Development with Python
Playing games is fun, but building games by yourself is even more exciting. You will learn how to make games using Python and PyGame. Bring your game ideas to our camp!
Web Server Programming with Python
To make your program more powerful, you need to turn it into a server program, so that people from all over the world can access it through the Internet. This is another core skill you will learn from the Python programming camp.
