QCL Workshop – Python: Programming Basics – Level 1
Python is one of the most popular programming languages for data scientists, web developers, and machine learning practitioners. Its simple syntax makes it an easy-to-write (and an easy-to-learn) language. In this workshop, you will learn the basics of the Python programming language by creating, step by step, a function that will potentially make grocery shopping easier.
This is a workshop designed for beginners, so no prior knowledge of Python or any programming language is needed.
Learning Objectives
- Python Programming Environment
- Jupyter Notebook
- Functions
- Variables
- Data Structures
- Lists
- Dictionaries
- For Loops
- Conditional Statements (if… else…)
- Hands-On Task (if time permits for the second workshop)
Prerequisites
This is a Level 1 Workshop, so no programming knowledge is assumed.
Instructor: Joan Zheng
