Intro to Python for Data Science

Interested in Data Science? Looking to gain some understanding of Python? Join us at Galvanize on January 25th for a live demo of how Python can be used in data science.

Data scientists need to know how to code, and Python is the most useful and versatile programming language for doing data science.

Two data scientists will live pair-program actual data science problems using python and talk you through everything they are doing to find a solution for the problem.

This event will be great for anyone looking to see actual examples of python being used in data science enabling you to gain exposure into data science or simply brush up on your Python skills.
