What exactly is the Python Basics course?
This course is an engaging and highly practical pathway into the world of programming. Known for its simplicity, readability, and immense power, Python is the ultimate starting point. In this 24-session course (one hour per session), requiring no prior experience, you will start from setting up the development environment and progress step-by-step through variables, loops, functions, data structures, and file handling. At Danaverse, we skip the boring theories to prepare you directly for writing your first real-world scripts.
Who is this course for?
A good fit if
- You are starting programming from zero with no background
- You want a solid base for AI, data analysis or back-end work
- You are an older teen or an adult and like learning through projects such as a calculator and a number-guessing game
Another course fits better if
- You already know variables, conditions, loops and functions; advanced Python suits you better
- Your child is 10 to 15; Python for kids is written in simpler language
What skills will you gain?
- Deep understanding of programming logic and algorithmic problem-solving
- Ability to write clean code using variables, conditionals, and loops
- Error handling (Exceptions) and debugging malicious code effectively
- Building and utilizing functions and modules to better organize your projects
- Ability to read, write, and process data within text files

Python Basics course FAQ
No. High-school math is enough for Python basics. More math is needed later, in paths such as AI and data analysis.
Where to go after this course
After the beginner course, advanced Python adds object-oriented programming, databases and Tkinter. If AI is your goal, machine learning is the next step.
