How Our For Loops and Conditional Statements in Python Course Works

Most Python courses for beginners tend to be video-based. At Dataquest, we believe the best way to get learners to the next level is through hands-on learning. In this introductory course, you’ll start coding as soon as you’re finished signing up.

Our lessons walk you through all the Python fundamentals you need to build a solid foundation before moving onto more advanced concepts. To get the most out of this course, learners should first complete our our Variables, Data Types, and Lists in Python course.

If you want a complete learning experience, you can also explore the various skill paths that include this course. For example, if you’re interested in data analysis, you can explore our Python Basics for Data Analysis path. Or, perhaps you’re looking to begin a new career — you can look into our Data Scientist in Python career path or our Data Analyst in Python path. It’s up to you!

Other key components of our teaching method include practice problems and guided projects. There’s just no better way to learn data skills than by solving real problems with real code. (And this is exactly what hiring managers are looking for!)

Additionally, with Dataquest, you’ll never learn alone. Our vibrant and supportive community of students and professionals is always ready to help. And if you ever need a hand from our powerful support tools, we’re only a click away.
