Free Python Course for Beginners

Module 1 · Code

Tell Python what to remember

A variable gives a value a name. Python uses = to assign a value. The print() function shows output.

name = "Maya"
print("Hello", name)

Change the code below, run it, and make the program introduce you.

Python Lab · runs in your browser

name = "Explorer"
print("Hello,", name)
print("Welcome to Summit Seekers Python!")

Output appears here.

What does a variable do?Gives a value a reusable nameDeletes all codeOnly stores picturesMakes the internet faster

Required checks must be passed before continuing.

Module 2 · Code

Make decisions with if statements

Programs can choose what to do based on a condition. Python uses if, elif, and else. Indentation shows which lines belong to each branch.

Python Lab · decision challenge

score = 8
if score >= 8:
    print("Summit badge unlocked!")
else:
    print("Try one more challenge.")

Output appears here.

Which keyword checks a condition first?printiflistimport

Required checks must be passed before continuing.

Module 3 · Code

Repeat work without repeating yourself

A loop repeats instructions. A for loop is useful when you know what collection or range you want to move through.

for step in range(1, 6):
print(step)

Python Lab · loop challenge

for level in range(1, 6):
    print("Climbing level", level)

Output appears here.

What will range(1, 4) produce in a for loop?1, 2, 31, 2, 3, 40, 1, 2, 3, 4Only 4

Required checks must be passed before continuing.

Module 4 · Build

Package an idea into a function

A function groups reusable instructions. Parameters let the function receive information. Returning a value lets another part of the program use the result.

Python Lab · function challenge

def badge_message(points):
    if points >= 10:
        return "Builder badge"
    return "Keep exploring"

print(badge_message(12))

Output appears here.

Why use a function?To organize reusable logicTo make every program longerTo prevent values from changingTo remove all inputs

Required checks must be passed before continuing.

Module 5 · Build

Work with collections and fix mistakes

A list stores an ordered collection. Debugging means finding and fixing problems. Good programmers expect bugs; they read errors, isolate the problem, test a small change, and try again.

Python Lab · list challenge

subjects = ["AI", "Chess", "Biology"]
for subject in subjects:
    print(subject, "is worth exploring!")

Output appears here.

Which is the best debugging habit?Change everything at onceRead the error and test one likely fix at a timeIgnore unexpected outputDelete the whole project

Required checks must be passed before continuing.

Module 6 · Share

Build a Python mini-app

Create one complete beginner project: a quiz game, score tracker, choose-your-own-adventure, study helper, number guessing game, or another idea approved by a mentor.

Project checklist

Use at least three variables.
Include a conditional.
Include a loop or reusable function.
Handle at least one unexpected input or edge case.
Add comments that explain two important decisions.
Write a reflection describing one bug you fixed.

Final project scratchpad

# Start your final project here
print("My Summit Seekers Python project")

Output appears here.

Which final project shows the strongest evidence of learning?A copied program with no explanationA working mini-app you can explain and debugA screenshot of code you did not runOne print statement
