Abstract

Python is an interpreted high-level general-purpose programming language. It is a simple language for beginners to learn, though it is powerful enough for writing large applications. This 2-module course is an introduction to the Python programming language. The average time to complete this course depends on the student’s background. To complete the course, students are supposed to have mathematical skills at the high school level. Students’ academic performance is evaluated using programming assignments: regular tests, weekly homeworks and a graded seminar. Also there is one mid-semester exam and final exam. The examples and problems used in this course cover such areas as basic syntax rules, file input and output, creation of custom user functions. This course does not provide lectures, all theoretical material is given during seminars.
