On 5-6-12-13 October 2018 the “Python for Beginners” course organized by Eucentre will be held.
The main objective of the course is to familiarize individuals from a non-programming background to the use of Python. The course itself is anchored to a pragmatic approach to Python learning, focusing on some the most useful tools at the disposal of a Python-based data scientist, and consolidating the knowledge acquired through a comprehensive set of pre-built exercises. This course is specifically driven towards making a beginner (even one with no knowledge in any programming language) acquainted with Python, as well as with existing frameworks that help the developer attain their objectives in a more efficient manner. At the end of the course, students should be able to:
- Be familiar with the syntax of the Python language, and a number of scripting environments available of this language;
- Build efficient Python code for a multitude of practical applications (e.g. data manipulation, processing);
- Perform complex data representations through advanced plotting strategies in Python.
The participation fee is of € 300+IVA 22%.
For graduate students, Masters and PhD students the fee for participation in the course is € 200 + IVA 22%.
