Python is a powerful, general-purpose programming language that plays well with others, runs everywhere, is friendly and easy to learn. Whilst it is a general-purpose language in nature, it has a large number of packages which suitable for a variety of tasks common to data analysts. Pythons syntax is simple yet elegant making it easy to read and quick to develop in. This two-day intensive course will introduce you to the language and equip you with the tools to manipulate, visualise and summarise your data.

Course Outline: 

• Introduction to Python: A brief introduction to the Python language and development tools for writing Python
• Data Types: An introduction to common Python data types, both from the language builtins such as lists and dictionaries and additional packages geared toward data analysis such as Pandas Series and DataFrame objects.
• Visualisation: Create standard statistical graphics such as scatter plots and histograms from your data.
• Summary Statistics: Apply common statistical summaries to your data sets using the power and speed of the numpy package.
• Data Manipulation: Become comfortable with manipulating your data, filtering, merging and joining, grouped aggregation.
• Data I/O: Load and save data from a variety of different data sources such as CSV files, Excel files and binary data storage formats.
• Control Flow: Get a handle on the basics of program control flow for your scripts. We will examine iterative looping structures (for loops) and conditional expressions (if statements).
• Functions: Define and use your own functions.
