Learn Python from scratch — PCEP & PCAP.
Certified Python Programmer — Foundations. Ten courses from installing Python to object-oriented programming: syntax and data types, control flow, data structures, strings, functions and modules, OOP, files and exceptions. Every course carries 10 hands-on programming exercises with worked solutions. Prepares you for the Python Institute PCEP and PCAP certifications.
Python Syntax, Variables & Data Types
Learn how Python stores and labels data — variables and naming rules, literals, and the core built-in types int, float, bool, str, complex and None. You will use type(), id() and f-strings, read numeric bases, and meet dynamic typing and simple conversion. Aligned to the Python Institute PCEP certification.
Operators, Input/Output & Type Conversion
Master Python's operators — arithmetic, comparison, logical, bitwise and assignment — together with reading input, printing output, and converting between types. You will learn operator precedence cold and build small interactive programs, preparing you directly for the Python Institute PCEP certification.
Installing Python & Your First Programs
Get Python installed and running on Windows, macOS or Linux, then write, save and run your first real programs. You will meet the REPL, editors and IDEs, pip and virtual environments, and learn to read error tracebacks. A concrete, step-by-step start that helps prepare for the Python Institute PCEP certification.
Functions & Modules — the Basics
Functions and modules are how Python programs stay small, readable and reusable instead of turning into one long, brittle script. This beginner course teaches you to define and call functions, pass default and keyword arguments, gather variable arguments with *args and **kwargs, document with docstrings, reason about scope, and import both standard-library and your own modules. It builds the function-and-module skills assessed by the Python Institute PCEP certification and finishes with a hands-on lab of ten programming exercises with full solutions.
Control Flow — Conditionals & Loops
Learn how Python makes decisions and repeats work using if/elif/else, truthiness, while and for loops, range(), and loop control with break, continue and pass. This beginner course builds the control-flow fluency the Python Institute PCEP exam expects, through runnable examples and a hands-on lab.
