Python Essentials 1:
Module 1

Introduction to Python and computer programming

In this module, you will learn about:

• the fundamentals of computer programming, i.e., how the computer works, how the program is executed,
how the programming language is defined and constructed;
• the difference between compilation and interpretation;
• what Python is, how it is positioned among other programming languages, and what distinguishes the
different versions of Python.
