Python Foundations: From Zero to Your First Build

Start here, even if you have never coded.

Learn how to run Python, store data, make decisions, repeat work, organize collections, and write reusable functions. Each lesson includes a worked example, an explanation, and an exercise.

What you will build

A temperature-monitoring program that validates readings and produces a useful summary. Use simulated data first; no hardware purchase is required.

Requirements

A computer with Python 3 installed and a text editor. Work through lessons in order and run every example yourself.
