Python Methodologies

(Cr. 3)

This course provides an introduction to the Python programming language, as well as the basics of imperative programming and select areas of computer science, object-oriented programming, and data structure--all with a focus on problem-solving.  Later in the course, we will introduce and incorporate basic concepts of data science. 

Upon completion of this course, candidates can expect to:

1. Understand problem solving with computer programming, computational thinking and discrete algorithms.
2. Demonstrate experience with the Python programming language and its design environments.
3. Have the ability to create well documented computer programs that uses logical constructs and the syntax of the Python programming language.
