This course is literally for anyone, from data scientists to students to doctors to musicians to new prospective programmers. With Python, you can do things from web scraping to generating music. There is always something that can be done with Python. Do I need prior Python knowledge? Yes. You need to know Python basics that are variables, data types, functions, conditionals, and loops. This course does not cover those because you can find such content easily on YouTube. Can we use the apps to build our own GitHub portfolio? Yes. You can publish the apps in your own GitHub account. However, it is recommended that you first change something from the code or even better, improve the code to make the apps really unique and yours. That will help your learning. Do I have to follow the course in the given order? No, you can pick the topics you like and only watch the videos and do the practice activities only for those topics. What if I get stuck? You will get stuck at some point. Every programmer does. When that happens, we've got your back. You can drop a question in the Q&A, and the instructor or the teaching assistant will answer your questions within the same day. You can also use the chat in the course Discord server to ask questions and chat with fellow students about Python. What if I don’t like the course? That will likely not happen. But, if it does, you are covered by the Udemy 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can quickly return the course. No questions asked. Does this course cover Python 2 or Python 3? Python 3. What IDE/editor is used in the course?
