Python is best known for applications in data analytics and big data processing. Python is also popular in many other software application fields, including graphics, database, network programming, game development, embedded systems, and web and internet development. Organizations running networks on private and public clouds count on Python as a general-purpose solution to fulfill the development requirement of applications. The flexible nature of the language is driving the demand for trained Python programmers and the certificate of achievement will prepare students for jobs that require professional-level Python programming skills. In addition, Python is also a good building block to jump-start other programming languages such as JavaScript, Perl, Ruby and other key programming languages.
