Introduction to Python, the most versatile language
Python is a versatile and practical text-based programming language that is suitable for students with zero knowledge in coding.
Syntax and Variables of Python language
Booleans, Conditionals, While Loops form the foundation knowledge of Python for students to grasp the language.
Sharpen Your Mind with Mathematical Challenges
We have multiple mathematical challenges for students to apply their Python knowledge with what they learn in school.

Python Meets Mathematics 1

Step into the shoes of search engine giant, Google when you utilise Python to solve your problems. Or understand the Python code behind the virality of your Instagram posts. The simplicity and practicality of Python are widely revered by programmers and developers around the world and you can be in awe as well by starting Python today.

Writing a program to generate only Prime Numbers

Python is a suitable language to get students with zero background started on coding/ programming. After learning the syntax and data types, students will have the basic foundations to build practically anything from software, to apps, to websites.

This course is a materialisation of the synergistic pairing of Mathematics and Programming. Our award-winning curriculum utilises knowledge from the GCE “O” and “A” level Mathematics for students to pick up Python programming skills. Students will thus have a better understanding on complex and abstract Mathematical concepts.
