QCL Workshop – Python: Programming Basics Part 1 – Level 1

February 6 @ 4:15 pm - 5:45 pm

 

Virtual Event

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
    • Anaconda
    • Jupyter Notebook
    • Version Control System: Git/GitHub
  • Functions
  • Variables
  • Data Structures
    • Lists
    • Dictionaries
  • For Loops
  • Conditional Statements (if… else…)
  • Hands-On Task (if time permits for the second workshop)
