Python Level 2
[PYTHON 2]
Full Course
Class Description:
Python Level 2 builds on the foundations of Python to take your understanding to the next level. The course begins by reviewing Tkinter, a powerful Python library that enables the creation of graphical user interfaces, including shapes, images, text, and buttons. With Tkinter, you will learn how to visualize more advanced Python features such as classes, advanced functions, algorithms, and file input/output. Additionally, the course will introduce you to the basics of APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) and how they can be used to connect to external data sources. By the end of the course, you will have the skills and knowledge necessary to create a final project utilizing everything you have learned throughout the class.
