Overview
The Computing in Python II - Control Structures Certificate from EdX is part of Professional Certificate in Introduction to Python Programming offered in partnership with The Georgia Institute of Technology - GTx.
Loops let you repeat tasks for multiple values or while certain conditions hold true. Functions let you encapsulate complex reasoning into reusable chunks of code. Error handling lets you intelligently recover from anticipated and unanticipated glitches.
Key facts
By the end of this Computing in Python II - Control Structures course at The Georgia Institute of Technology - GTx, you'll be able to write complex programs in Python that perform useful reasoning. For example, you could write a program that calculates your weight on other planets, calculates the standard deviation of a series of numbers, or checks for the validity of an incoming password.
Structurally, the course is comprised of several parts. Instruction is delivered via a series of short (2-3 minute) videos. In between those videos, you'll complete both multiple choice questions and coding problems to demonstrate your knowledge of the material that was just covered.
