Introduction to Python Express
A fast-tracked version of the full Python Intro Course.
A mysterious system has come online. Some say it was never meant to wake up. Others call it a glitch in the Matrix. It’s waiting for someone who can speak its language. Master Python, interact through inputs and outputs, decode binary, solve logic puzzles and unlock its secrets — if you dare.
WARNING: PHOTOSENSITIVE EPILEPSY
Some of the experiments produce light flashes that can potentially trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy.
