Description
This warm, beginner-focused narration walks through the core ideas that help programming feel less mysterious and more approachable. It starts by reframing programming as the craft of giving clear instructions, then introduces Python’s basic “lingo,” from expressions and data types to variables and comments.
From there, the narration explores how to organize information and programs using functions, lists, tuples, and dictionaries—then gently moves into practical automation: searching and transforming text with regular expressions, reading and writing files, and handling common formats like spreadsheets, PDFs, Word documents, CSV, and JSON. The closing chapters widen the lens to show how scheduling, emails, notifications, and image manipulation can turn small scripts into real help in everyday work and life.
