The Power of Repetition - Introduction to Loops (for loops)
Computers are great at handling repetitive tasks quickly. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use for loops to tap into this strength. We'll explore how to use loops to go through sequences like lists and strings, doing something for each item. Loops are a key part of programming that can save you a ton of time and effort.
Making Decisions with Conditional Statements (if, elif, else)
What if your program could make decisions? We're adding logic to our code using conditional statements. We'll explore if, elif, and else to let your program run different code blocks depending on specific conditions. This is the first step toward creating smart, responsive programs.
Talking to Your Program - Input and Output
Let's make our programs interactive! Today, we'll focus on communication. You'll learn how to use the input() function to collect data from the user and the print() function to display information back to them. We'll also explore string formatting with f-strings to create clear, dynamic output, which is an essential skill for any application.

Day 2: Python Basics - Variables and Data Types
Every program needs to store information. In this lesson, we'll explore the basics of variables and data types in Python. You'll learn how to create variables to store data and understand different data types, like integers, floats, strings, and booleans. We'll also go over basic naming conventions for variables and how to check what type of data a variable contains.
Why Python? Setting Up Your Development Environment
Welcome to your 30-day Python journey! Today, we'll dive into why Python is one of the most popular programming languages globally. Its simple and readable syntax makes it ideal for beginners. We'll also set up your computer for coding by installing Python and a powerful code editor like VS Code or PyCharm. By the end of the day, you'll have written and run your first "Hello, World!" program.
