    Learning Python has become increasingly popular in recent years, and for a good reason. Python is a versatile programming language that can be used for a wide range of applications, including data science, machine learning, web development, and more. In an introductory Python course such as this, you can expect to learn the basics of Python syntax, data types, control structures, and functions. Learning Python can lead to many career benefits, including increased job opportunities, higher salaries, and the ability to work on exciting and innovative projects. Additionally, adding online courses and certifications to a resume can demonstrate a commitment to professional development and a willingness to learn new skills. Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to: - Recall and describe software application and development theory and concepts - Write, compile, execute, troubleshoot, analyze, evaluate, and resolve simple problems through program coding using Python computer language. - Develop, synthesize, and identify important language standard libraries and utilities. - Apply data transfer techniques between modules using parameters and return values. - Construct applications to use simple files for input and output. - Implement arrays as structures to contain data. - Use a higher-level programming language to code, test, and debug software designs. - Implement concepts of Object Oriented Programming (OOP), inheritance and polymorphism. - Describe integration of Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) and event driven programming. - Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions (ABET Computing Criterion 3.1) - Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline (ABET Computing Criterion 3.2) - Identify and analyze user needs and take them into account in the selection, creation, evaluation, and administration of computer-based systems (ABET IT Criterion 3.6)
