Python Crash Courses: Intro to Python

The Python Crash Course: Introduction to Python introduces basic concepts in the Python programming language such as object types, base Python data structures, file paths, and flow control (if statements & for-loops). We'll work through some applied examples and help you get Python installed on your computer.

 

We will also survey some of the popular packages for data science in Python and talk about next steps on your learning journey.

 

This workshop is offered by University Library and will be led by librarians Philip McDaniel, Lorin Bruckner, Michele Hayslett, Matt Jansen, and Rolando Rodriguez along with Mark Reed from ITS Research Computing. Contact Matt Jansen with any questions.
