Course Description
Welcome to the brand new course in Python 3: Beginner to Pro.
When I started creating this course, I had one objective in mind:
"Teach like I wish I had been taught".
I remember the questions/doubts/hesitations I had when I was learning Python and I have tried very hard to address them in this course. This is why there are many many quizzes and code assignments/problems to solve in this course. No one learns to swim or ride a bicycle by attending lectures on swimming or biking and so it is with coding. You have to write the code, make mistakes, solve those mistakes and repeat. That is the only way to learn.
A strong foundation is necessary for any new endeavor and if it seems that the course is a bit slow in the beginning, it is a deliberate choice to ensure that students have the requisite knowledge to proceed to the more challenging portions.
Student feedback is a very important to me. It allows me to change portions of the course if necessary. Please don't hesitate to ask pertinent questions and I will answer them ASAP.
Some of the topics:
Data types, variables, operators.
Conversions between Data types
Operators: Arithmetic, Assignment, Comparison
Operators: Logical, Identity, Membership, Bitwise
for loops, while loops and if-else branching
Functions: Parameters, arguments, return values
Functions: Positional and Keyword Argument

My programming abilities have significantly improved as a result of the online Python course I took. I developed a strong foundation in Python programming through in-depth tutorials, practical exercises, and real-world applications. I gained knowledge on how to build algorithms, write clear and concise code, and handle challenging issues. Additionally, the course broadened my understanding of Python's applications by introducing me to numerous libraries and frameworks. In addition, the way the teacher taught the course allowed me to practice coding in real-time and get immediate feedback. Overall, this course gave me the skills I needed to solve programming problems and offered up a world of intriguing options in the computer sector.

Brilliant and superb course on Udemy.The only lacking is the project ideas otherwise this is the best course u taught is fruitfully. Sir thank u so much as there are so many tutors on Udemy, they started teaching what they want but u done a very excellent work thank u again.

This course is a great choice for those who know nothing about programming, but it still manages to give very in-depth explanation of all the core Python topics. It also goes well beyond that and covers regex, web dev and data analytics, serving as a great introduction for all of them. It's a very intense learning journey, but it's more than worth it.

I’m so happy to learn this course
By Ahmed Ashour on 12/16/2022
At the half of this course, i am completely amazed about this content but i wonder why the polymorphism and encapsulation don't exist in OOP section?
By Fawzi Elshafei on 12/10/2022
I am a beginner, and the introduction is reasonable and straightforward. The speed of the instructor is excellent, and the voice is clear. I look forward to the following topics.

Perfect course to learn python and excellent teaching explaining the "Why" factor for every concept in depth. Thank you
By Oksana Tatsyak on 8/3/2021
I am new to programming and I was not sure if I could handle a Python course by myself but the clarity of instruction is excellent and I like the course structure and progression. I appreciate the thorough approach towards explaining the subject with examples and attention to detail. The quizzes and assignments are a very useful feature as well.
By Krishnamurty KVG on 8/2/2021
This is a great course. Excellent introduction to Python. Useful for everybody who wants to learn in an organized and comprehensive way and not just for beginners. It is apparent that that the instructor developed the content with great care. Content is developed with the objective of understanding Python's core philosophy and presented clearly. Quizzes are designed to enhance the learning. When I did the quizzes, it clearly pointed to gaps in my knowledge and emphasized where I should put in extra effort.
