This is the third and final course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you use the provided virtual machine, which includes an installation of Python. The course setup instructions provided in the first course go into more detail about the hardware and software requirements.

Beyond the standard environment that Python® provides are many modules, both built in and external, that can add a great deal of functionality to your program. You can even create your own.
