Description
An easy-to-learn programming language, Python is explored in this course from Vision Training Systems. Python is developed under an OSI-approved open source license, making it freely usable and distributable, even for commercial use. A general-purpose programming language created nearly three decades ago, it is now one of the most popular languages used today for data science and machine learning.

Python interpreters are available for the main operating systems as well (Linux, Mac OS, Windows, Android, iOS, BSD, etc.) so it’s very flexible in where it is used. The language has a simple syntax that makes it suitable for learning to program as a first language. The learning curve is smoother than other languages such as Java, which quickly requires learning about Object Oriented Programming or C/C++ that require understanding pointers. Still, it’s possible to learn about OOP or functional programming in Python when the time comes
