Why learn Python?

Simple answer: You will have difficulty in finding another programming language, which is as much fun as Python and more powerful, more elegant, and simpler!

Other good reasons: Python is a general-purpose high-level scripting and programming language. The main focus of Python was to reduce the learning curve by choosing an easy to understand syntax, just like plain English.

Award Winner

Python wins the TIOBE Programming Language Award of 2010! This award is given to the programming language that gained most market share in 2010. Python grew 1.81% since January 2010.
And it was even more impressive in 2009: EDC, Evans Data Corp, announced in November 2009, that use of the Python programming language has increased by 45% since Spring 2008. According to a North American Development Survey performed by EDV, the number of developers had increased from 13% to 20.3% within this time period.

Only One Way to Do it

"There should be one and preferably only one obvious way to do it" is the programming philosophy of Python. There is more than one way to do take a course, but doing one at Bodenseo is one of the best choices.

  • Object Oriented Programming with Python

    Python is an object-oriented programming language, although unfortunately many Python programmers do not use the special possibilities of OOP. Many of them wrongly believe that object-oriented programming (OOP) is a complicated style of programming. The aim of this course is to introduce programmers who have previously only programmed procedurally to the OOP. The course starts with the simplest examples and then introduces the most important aspects of object orientation in Python. It also covers the more advanced topics like decorating classes and metaclasses. The course duration of three days leaves enough time for practical exercises and in-depth examples.
    It can be run as an on-site or in-house training course as well, e.g. in England (London), France (Paris), Switzerland (Zurich), Austria, Germany (Berlin), Canada (Toronto).
    Dates: 17/Jan/2024 - 19/Jan/2024; 21/Feb/2024 - 23/Feb/2024; 20/Mar/2024 - 22/Mar/2024; 24/Apr/2024 - 26/Apr/2024; 15/May/2024 - 17/May/2024; 26/Jun/2024 - 28/Jun/2024; 24/Jul/2024 - 26/Jul/2024; 14/Aug/2024 - 16/Aug/2024; 25/Sep/2024 - 27/Sep/2024
