This class runs as a private cohort on dates that suit your team, at your site or delivered live online. Tell us roughly when and how many people, and we'll come back with dates and a total.
We can also add you to the notify list for the next public date, though private delivery is usually faster and works out better per seat once you're past four or five people.

Python 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.
What you'll be able to do
- 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.

How reserving works. Your card is authorized, not charged. We confirm the seat with the training center, usually within one business day, and take payment only once it is held. If the class turns out to be full we release the authorization and you are not charged.
