Python Exercises Collection

This course is a collection of 35 hand selected Python exercises with solutions for beginners and advanced learners.

If you want to prepare for an exam or interview this is the course for you. But of course it will also help if you are just seeking to become a better coder.

Algorithmic thinking is an important skill which you can only learn by practice. You can read about all the theory and syntax of a language but still your brain needs practice. Therefore, I came up with this course to provide you with hand selected exercises and solutions so that you can hone your skills and develop your programmer mindset.

Practice all the Python basics:

  • variables
  • get user input
  • type conversion
  • loops
  • logic operators
  • arithmetic operators
  • if statements
  • functions
  • built-in functions
  • built-in data structures
  • algorithmic thinking

This course also contains the source code solutions of all the exercises, so that you can compare your code with a professional's code.

Thereby, you will be able to hone your skills further and see how experienced coders solve the tasks.

What Is A Lambda Function Anyways?

A lambda function is an anonymous function in Python. It starts with the keywordlambda, followed by a comma-separated list of zero or more arguments, followed by the colon and the return expression. For example, lambda x, y, z: x+y+z would calculate the sum of the three argument values x+y+z.
