Problem Solving, Python Programming, and Video Games

The Problem Solving, Python Programming, and Video Games training course by Coursera is an introductory programme in the field of Python programming and computer science. The programme places heavy emphasis on computer science techniques and methods such as problem decomposition, problem-solving (computational thinking), algorithms, software quality, and abstraction.

Moreover, the Problem Solving, Python Programming, and Video Games programme use the medium of video games through the Python programming language to help you consolidate various computer science techniques you have learnt throughout the programme. But the concepts are not limited to the domain of video games. Candidates can apply them to multiple other functions such as software development, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and more.

Also, the participants of the Problem Solving, Python Programming, and Video Games online course get access to the interactive learning objects. Interactive learning objects or ILO is a virtual environment integrated with the certification course to provide you with a platform for practising and developing algorithms, video games, functional test cases, and problem descriptions.

Lastly, upon successful completion of all the programme modules, practical exercises, and assignments, you will be eligible for the Coursera course completion certificate.
