This session is a hands-on introduction to Python.
No previous experience of Python, or any coding, is necessary. If you've never coded before, you're welcome to join us for a supportive and friendly session to learn with others also starting their journey.
We'll start at zero and work through the basics - using the python web-based notebook, variables, loops, functions .. and the moving onto useful things for data scientists - importing useful libraries, working with data frames, simple visualisation, saving and loading data.
Don't worry if none of these words mean anything yet!
By the end of the session you'll have written your own code, make a good start at reading and learning from existing Python code, be able to use the very vibrant ecosystem of libraries .. and gained the confidence to continue learning!
