Python in Data Science for Beginners – 2022

Training Context

Discover how to use Python and its most popular libraries in Data Science

This hands-on training gets you started with the most popular language in Data Science. In the first part, you will learn the basics of programming in Python. Then, the second part will be a practical approach to the NumPy (Numerical Python), Pandas (Python data analysis library) and Matplotlib (Visualisation with Python) libraries which will allow you to illustrate your data analysis efficiently.

Goals

After this digital training, you will be able to:

• Code in Python
• Discover the libraries NumPy and Pandas
• Create data analysis visualisations with Matplotlib
