Coding with Python 101 Class Overview

One of our most popular classes, Python 101 is perfect for kids with some coding experience who want to challenge themselves by going deep into Python’s capabilities!

Students will navigate the text-based programming in IDLE, Python’s integrated development environment, and learn to write original code using conditionals and loops. They will then combine these elements to create a video game to take home. More advanced students will tackle more complicated challenges including file I/O, arrays, and methods for efficient algorithm design.
