About This Course

Python Meets Mathematics 1

One of the Global Top 10 most popular programming languages, Python is a versatile and practical text-based programming language that is suitable for students with no prior knowledge in coding. Booleans, Conditionals, and While Loops form the foundation knowledge of Python for students to grasp the language.
A sample program coded in Python to generate Prime Numbers:

Why should I learn python?

Python is a suitable language to get students with zero background started on coding/ programming. After learning the syntax and data types, students will have the basic foundations to build practically anything from software, to apps, to websites.

This online course is a materialisation of the synergistic pairing of Mathematics and Programming. Our award-winning curriculum utilises knowledge from the proven Singapore Mathematics curriculum for students to pick up Python programming skills. Students will thus have a better understanding on complex and abstract Mathematical concepts.

Completing this module is a prerequisite for Python 2 (S112). Want to find out more? Check out our FAQs.

Why Our Students Love Us

Good pace covering the necessary topics with examples, and thereafter 1-2 exercises to be completed during coursework to ensure basic understanding. The kids are then allowed to practise more on their own and come back if clarifications are required 👍
– Parent of Ayken, 13, Singapore
The content taught at Coding Lab are interesting and useful in real life, for example creating websites with Django as the backend server to process the database and retrieve the designs of the websites that are created using HTML.
– Ng Chen-Yi, 13, Singapore
At the end of my first lesson, after just a couple of hours, I was so enthralled with coding that both my parents and I were surprised!
