Get introduced to Python. Learn about the print and input statements. Also learn about variables and types, including int, float, and string. Get started writing your first few Python programs that use these statements.
Then, learn about mathematical expressions in Python, including arithmetic operators and rules of precedence for evaluating expressions. Also learn about type conversion and the use of constants in programs. Review the Python math and random libraries for mathematical functions and random number generation, respectively. Get practice putting these concepts together in sample programs.
