Content

This course will give a hands-on introduction to the concept of Object-Oriented Programming, a popular and powerful approach to problem solving by describing the involved components and their interactions.

We will introduce the involved concepts from the very beginning using Python as our language of choice.

Required Tools/Knowledge

• A basic knowledge of the Python language (variables, functions, loops, conditions)
• A working Python setup (The instructors will use Thonny for the workshop but you can bring whatever suits you)
