Python 102 Developing a text-based pac-man game

Get more fluent with Python through a series of coding lectures

Understand and use the main language constructors, such as ifs, for and while loops

Develop and manipulate more complex data structures to support the game

Learn the basics of automated testing

Understand how a professional programmers thinks when programming

Basic knowledge of Python.

Did you just learn how to program in Python and needs to practice a bit more? Are you looking for some mildly complex project to challenge your skills? In this Python 102 course, we'll implement a text-based pac-game together, from scratch. Throughout the videos, we'll go together through all the challenges of implementing a game (how to design the map, how to move the characters, how to understand that the game is over) while exercising all the basics of the Python language.This entire course is basically a live coding session. You will see:How to create simple data structures to store things like the map and game pointsHow to write complex ifs to take the different game decisionsHow to properly use loops, e.g., to control the main game loopHow to get data from the keyboard and react to itHow to test your program using basic automated unit testingHow to make mistakes, understand why your program is failing, and how to learn from the mistakesI speak out loud every step I take, including my mistakes. In the end of every video, you are asked to implement the pac-man yourself. Did you get lost? No worries, you can find the source code of the game at every point in in the resources of the course.If you are looking for a nice way to reinforce your recently acquired Python skills, this is the course for you!
