Blast off with Python Series: Functions and Modules

27 October, 2021 | 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time

  • Format:
  • alt##LivestreamLivestream

Topic: Coding, Languages, and Frameworks (including GitHub & AI coding)

Language: English

Get started with Python in this beginners series. No need for previous Python experience, although some programming exposure would help. I’ll dive through some of the modules in the Python First Steps Learning Path, where I’ll cover all the basics of Python and end up with a fully functional Python project at the end.

For additional info on Python check out these modules: https://aka.ms/PythonLanguage_regpage & https://aka.ms/pythonfirststeps1

Functions are the easiest way to reuse code and avoid repeating code blocks, which leads to mistakes and errors that can be hard to catch. In this session, I’ll demonstrate how to identify code that can be extracted as a function, and how easy is to group them into modules. Efficient use of modules and functions will make your code cleaner, easier to read, and faster to work with.
