AD141 Introduction to Python Programming (AD141)

Python programming for beginnersPython is a popular programming language used by system administrators, data scientists, and developers to create web applications, custom Red Hat Ansible Automation modules, perform statistical analysis, and train AI/ML models. This course introduces the Python language and teaches fundamental concepts like control flow, loops, data structures, functions, file I/O, regular expressions, parsing JSON, and debugging. This course is based on Python 3 and RHEL 9.0. Following course completion, you will receive a 45-day extended access to hands-on labs for any course that includes a virtual environment.Note: This course is self paced. Durations may vary based on the delivery. For full course details, scheduling, and pricing, select your location then “get started” on the right hand menu.Virtual LearningThis interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have any delegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, Global Knowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.

COURSE OBJECTIVE:
• Basics of Python syntax, functions and data types • How to debug Python scripts using the Python debugger (pdb) • Use Python data structures like dictionaries, sets, tuples and lists to handle compound data • Learn Object-oriented programming in Python and Exception Handling • How to read and write files in Python and parse JSON data • Use powerful regular expressions in Python to manipulate text • How to effectively structure large Python programs using modules and namespaces • How to use third-party libraries using the pip CLI tool.

 

TARGET AUDIENCE:
• System administrators and DevOps personnel who want to use Python to automate operating system tasks • Developers from other programming languages who want to learn Python for writing applications • AI/ML, data scientists, and engineers who want to use Python for data analysis and machine learning

COURSE PREREQUISITES:
• There are no prerequisites for this course.Technology considerations • Internet access is required. • A cloud-based RHEL workstation will be provided. Optionally, students can install Python on their own workstation and run lab exercises locally, however Red Hat will not troubleshoot local environment issues.
