The rest is Python

Python is a powerful, object-oriented, portable open source programming language for writing stand alone programs, quick scripts, and prototypes for large applications.

Python can do many useful things right out of the box, and provides all the basic tools and features that programmers have come to expect of a major programming language. Python is a programming language that lets you work at a faster pace, and integrate your systems more effectively. When you learn to use Python, you will quickly see gains in productivity and lower maintenance costs.

"We will perhaps eventually be writing only small modules which are identified by name as they are used to build larger ones, so that devices like indentation, rather than delimiters, might become feasible for expressing local structure in the source language."
(Donald E. Knuth, "Structured Programming with goto Statements", Computing Surveys, Vol 6, No 4, Dec. 1974)

All our courses are tailored to meet your expectations and are conveniently scheduled in Toronto or the location of your choice, if you prefer on-site training. We offer onsite training all over Europe, Canada and the United States. On-site trainings in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, Quebec, Winipeg and many other locations.

Python Training Course Intermediate

This training course covers the basic syntax of the python programming language. We will start with statements, variables, comments, conditionals, and loops, and then go on to cover many fundamentals of Python, such as tuples, lists and dictionaries. The seminar will also cover topics such as functions, modules, string formatting, and packages. While we typically run the courses out of hotels in beautiful locations, this course can be run as an in-house training course as well, across Canada and the Northern United States.

Target Group:

This course is aimed at programmers with experience in another high-level programming or scripting language such as C, C++, Java, Perl, PHP, Tcl or others. Experience with Python is not necessary.
