Description

This module is a direct continuation of INST0002 Programming 1. Programming 1 introduced some of the basic concepts of imperative and object-oriented computer programming, and developed programming skills and related problem-solving skills using a subset of the Python programming language. The Programming 2 module expands this subset and uses it to introduce the more complex concepts required to perform more detailed (and more interesting!) programming tasks using the Python language.
