Why “AI Python for Beginners” is the best course to refresh your Python coding skills
I recently completed Andrew Ng’s “AI Python for Beginners” course from his DeepLearning.AI website.
After working on a few Python coding projects this year, I felt I needed to refresh my Python skills and review the fundamentals similar to a basketball player who has played several games but feels the need to get back in the gym and practice shooting and layups. What I really liked about this course is that it focuses on the Python concepts that are relevant for AI. Also, the course teaches you a methodology of working with an AI chat bot which aligns with how programming is trending.
There are 4 modules in this course :
Module #1: Basics of AI Python Coding
This module covers variables, text, and calculations.
These are the building blocks of any programming language. I found the text lessons the most valuable because manipulating and displaying text is important in AI. A large part of AI is working with prompts, which is text, and displaying the response, which is also text.
This module also introduces you on how to work with an AI coding chat bot.
