Take your first steps with Python
Interested in learning a programming language but aren't sure where to start? Start here! Learn the basic syntax and thought processes required to build simple applications using Python.
In this learning path, you'll:
- Write your first lines of Python code
- Store and manipulate data to modify its type and appearance
- Execute built-in functionality available from libraries of code
- Add logic to your code to enable complex business functionality
Once you complete this learning path, you will have a great foundation to build upon in subsequent Python Learning Paths.

Modules in this learning path
Get started with learning Python by installing and configuring the tools you'll need to build real applications.
Use the if statement Boolean expressions with comparison and logic operators to express decision logic.
Explore the Python standard library, how to add a module to your program, and how to download third-party packages.
Learn how to use lists to manage a collection of data. Use helper functions to manipulate the list. Use the for statement to iterate through the list.
