The short answer? The sky is the limit! :-)

Python is an incredibly powerful language, and the Python learning track is sure to teach you the foundational knowledge you need to take your python learning even further. Once you learn the basics you'll be able to decide where you'd like to focus your energy. Maybe you want to develop websites? Why not take a look at the Django framework. Maybe you'd like to parse through large amounts of data and analyze it? Python is perfect for that! I worked through an example once that involved downloading a large number of tweets and analyzing the number of times keywords were used. I also recently saw a book on sale for using Python for machine learning.

Python is a tool in your toolbelt. Before you can build your masterpiece though, you'll need the foundations. That's where the Python course will take you. You'll know enough to start solving the problems you wish to solve, and if you don't, you'll have enough knowledge to understand where to find what you are looking for and how to use it.

Thanks,

Zac
