Learn Python Programming

Learn to program in Python from the very beginning, with clear explanations, original diagrams and examples that were run and checked on current Python.

The app covers Python 3.15, released in October 2026. All examples run on Python 3.10 or newer; the few that need a newer version are clearly marked.

What's inside

• Getting Started: what Python is, installing it on Windows, macOS and Linux, editors such as VS Code and IDLE, online interpreters, the interactive prompt and your first program

• Python Basics: variables, data types, numbers, division and rounding pitfalls, strings, indexing and slicing, string methods, f-strings, input and output, operators and booleans

• Control Flow: if, elif and else, the match statement, for and while loops, break, continue and loop else

• Collections: lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries and comprehensions

• Functions: parameters and defaults, *args and **kwargs, keyword-only arguments, scope and the LEGB rule, lambda and recursion

• Modules and Libraries: import, packages, math, random, datetime, pathlib, JSON, CSV, virtual environments and pip

• Files and Errors: reading and writing files, the with statement, tracebacks, try/except/else/finally and raising exceptions

• Classes and Objects: attributes, methods, properties, inheritance, special methods and data classes

• Going Further: iterators, generators, type hints and what is new in Python 3.14 and 3.15

• Practice and Projects: debugging, common beginner mistakes, a number guessing game, a to-do list that saves to a file, a word counter, a calculator and a cheat sheet
