Python Programming For All Levels

Python is a general-purpose coding language with applications in web development, data science, machine learning, fintech, and more. The Intermediate Python Nanodegree program equips you to leverage the capabilities of Python and streamline the functionality of applications that perform complex tasks, such as classifying files, data mining a webpage, etc. By the end of the program, you’ll have a portfolio that demonstrates your ability to apply practitioner-level Python skills on the job.

In this course, you will learn advanced Python skills and master a myriad of modern subject matter.

Learn how you can write, structure, and extend your code to be able to support developing large systems at scale. Understand how you can leverage open source libraries to quickly add advanced functionality to your code and how you can package your code into libraries of your own. Apply Object Oriented Programming to ensure that your code remains modular, clear, and understandable. Honing these skills are the foundations for building codebases that are maintainable and efficient as they grow to tens of thousands of lines.

Learn Python programming fundamentals such as data types and structures, variables, loops, and functions.

Get started with Python through fun, beginner-friendly exercises. Learn programming basics, loops, and control flow by writing code that guides a virtual turtle to draw creative shapes on the screen.

Develop a strong foundation in Python programming for AI, utilizing tools like NumPy, pandas, and Matplotlib for data analysis and visualization. Learn how to use, build, and train machine learning models with popular Python libraries. Implement neural networks using PyTorch. Gain practical experience with deep learning frameworks by applying your skills through hands-on projects. Explore generative AI with Transformer neural networks, learn to build, train, and deploy them with PyTorch, and leverage pre-trained models for natural language processing tasks. Designed for individuals with basic programming experience, this program prepares you for advanced studies in AI and machine learning, equipping you with the skills to begin a career in AI programming.

Begin with the basics and build coding confidence. In this course, you’ll write your first Python programs, explore concepts like functions and control flow, and create an interactive adventure game.

Expand on your Python basics by exploring files, APIs, and object-oriented programming. Strengthen your skills while creating classes, handling data, and coding a Rock Paper Scissors game from scratch.

Learn programming skills needed to uncover patterns and insights in large data sets, running queries with relational databases and working with Unix shell and Git.

You'll learn the skills needed to traverse the stack and develop an entire database-backed web application. By the end of the course, you'll have the fundamentals you need to start building web applications, including how to do Create, Read, Update, and Delete (CRUD) operations on a database, how to apply these operations across both databases and web applications, how to set up relationships between elements of an application, and ultimately how to think about important principles and patterns in building data models for a web application

Prepare for the Python PCEP certification while deepening your skills in syntax, functions, control flow, and more. This course builds a strong foundation for coding and career readiness.
