Our instructor... was clear, detail oriented, and made the learning environment safe and collaborative. We got a lot of real world examples from him, and all the little details he shared made this entire course special, and more than simply reading a textbook.
Overall, I'm a big advocate for Brainstation's courses - they've proved to be extremely valuable in my career.

It's always hard to start something new, especially when it involves learning skills that you know will force you to think differently about your day-to-day work. I'm glad I got over that fear and signed up for two classes... both were fantastic!

What Type of Language is Python?
Python is a cross-platform, high-level, interpreted, object-oriented programming language.
Let's take a closer look at each of these terms. First, Python is a cross-platform programming language because it can be used on macOS, Windows, and Unix systems.
It is also a high-level programming language, which means it provides high-level data structures and semantics to translate step-by-step instructions into code. The syntax and semantics Python provides also use Object Oriented Programming (OOP) principles to design systems, which makes it an object-oriented language.
Finally, Python is an interpreted language because it uses an interpreter to translate and run code.
