About this course
Python Fundamentals for Designers is an introduction to programming using Python meant for students interested in how programming is applied to visual applications and design. The course introduces the foundations of programming through a visual and dynamic learning environment. You’ll cover the essential building blocks of Python programming, from basic syntax and data types to more advanced concepts like control structures, functions, and inputs/outputs. Learn to build shapes and designs while implementing data structures that allow room for more complexity and depth within your projects. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to create dynamic and organic visual effects using the Processing platform with Python. This is the first course in a three-part series, Programming for Designers, aimed at equipping designers with essential computational design skills.
What you will learn
- Learn how Python can be applied to design projects
- Execute simple Python scripts to draw geometric forms like lines, rectangles, and ellipses
- Learn to use Python’s object-oriented programming to create basic shapes and designs
