Python Fundamentals

This 4-week class introduces the Python programming language from a data analysis perspective and is designed for beginners who are new to Python and coding. While Python is an incredibly versatile programming language with a wide range of functionalities, this course will focus on the use of the pandas library for conducting tabular data analysis. Students will gain skill in using Visual Studio Code and Jupyter Notebook and in following basic coding principles, defining variables, working with Pandas DataFrames and Series, and visualizing data. Because it is self-paced, asynchronous, and faculty-supported, students will be able to go at their own pace and do the class their own way, but never feel on their own!
