Python Certification Training (beginner to expert)

A warm welcome to the Python Programming course by Uplatz.

Python is a high-level, general-purpose and a very popular programming language. Python programming language is being used in web development, Machine Learning applications, along with all cutting edge technology in software industry.

Python is a popular programming language. It was created by Guido van Rossum, and released in 1991. It is used in web development, data science, creating software prototypes, and so on. Fortunately for beginners, Python has simple easy-to-use syntax. Python is one of the high-level, interpreted and general-purpose programming languages that is easy to use, comprehensive and powerful.

Python is a widely used dynamic programming language compared to other languages such as Java, Perl, PHP, and Ruby. It is often termed as a scripting language. It provides support for automatic memory management, multiple programming paradigms, and implements the basic concepts of object-oriented programming (OOP). Python programming language is supported with a huge and broad standard library. The library of Python provides support for many Internet protocols such as FTP, and IMAP. It has a unique syntax, which makes it different from other programming languages like Java, C++, and C.

Python has some great applications. It is widely used in the development of frameworks such as Django and Pyramid, and advanced content management systems like Plone and Django CMS.

Key areas where Python is used

• web development (server-side)

• analytics and data visualization

• software development

• mathematics & statistics

• system scripting

Features of Python programming language

1. Python is currently the most widely used multi-purpose, high-level programming language.

2. Python allows programming in object-oriented paradigms.

3. Python programs generally are smaller than other programming languages like Java. Programmers have to type relatively less and indentation requirement of the language, makes them readable all the time.

4. Python language is being used by top companies across all sectors such as Walmart, Google, Amazon, Tesla, etc.

5. The biggest strength of Python is huge collection of standard library which can be used for the following:

   • Machine Learning

   • GUI Applications (like Kivy, Tkinter, PyQt etc. )

   • Web frameworks like Django (used by YouTube, Instagram, Dropbox)

   • Image processing (like OpenCV, Pillow)

   • Web scraping (like Scrapy, BeautifulSoup, Selenium)

   • Test frameworks

   • Multimedia

   • Scientific computing

   • Text processing, and more
