Python is the programming language these days. It is simple, nice and almost all modern applications use it. With Python, we can now create artificial intelligence models that reduce human effort and give us more accurate and reliable results. The Java and C languages are not lacking in importance, they also make it possible to create applications optimized in terms of RAM.

The composition of the course depends on the level of the student and his own objectives. The first session is a one-hour evaluation session which allows the diagnosis of the level and the needs of the student. From this diagnosis we establish together a program that we will follow during our course.

Generally the course allows the student to assimilate:
* Predefined Data Types & Variables;
* Conditional Structures & Loops;
* Functions ;
* Object-oriented programming (OOP);
* Digital engineering;
* An introduction to databases (Examples and uses)
* Relational Algebra
* LDD, LCD, LMD, LCT
* SQL queries (SELECT, UPDATE, ...)
* Creation of a database and automation of queries using the Python language
* Handling files (TXT, Excel, CSV, JSON, Word);
* Data science;
* Introduction and some applications of Artificial Intelligence.

I am waiting for you to start this adventure.
