From October 13 to 16, at 42 Barcelona, we invite you to a Python Piscine Discovery: four intensive, free days from scratch to take your first steps into programming.
But Python is only one part of what you will discover.
Learning Python means learning how to solve problems
Python is one of the most widely used programming languages and a gateway to fields such as artificial intelligence, data, automation and software development.
During these four days, you will learn basic concepts such as variables, conditions, loops, functions, lists and dictionaries, but the goal is not to memorize code.
The goal is to understand how to approach a problem when you don’t yet know how to solve it.
Try. Make mistakes. Search. Try again. Understand what happened. And keep going.
At 42, we believe that this way of learning is just as important as what you learn.
You don’t learn alone. You learn with others.
At 42, there are no traditional classes or teachers giving you the answers. Our methodology is based on peer-to-peer learning.
During the Piscine Discovery, you will work with other participants, share knowledge, explain what you have discovered and ask for help when you need it.
Knowing how to code is just the beginning. At 42 Barcelona, you also learn how to communicate, solve problems, collaborate and work as part of a team.
Four days to challenge yourself
The Piscine Discovery is intensive. There will be challenges, projects and moments when things don’t work out the first time.
And that’s at the heart of learning at 42: developing autonomy, perseverance, problem-solving skills and adaptability.
Skills that go far beyond programming, technology and Python — but that are increasingly important in the world of work.
That’s why these four days are not just an introduction to programming. They are an opportunity to discover how you learn, how you work and how far you can go when you are faced with a problem and nobody simply gives you the answer.
Discover Python. And much more.
From October 13 to 16, 2026, come and discover Python at 42 Barcelona.
4 days. €0 cost. No previous knowledge required. And so much to discover.
