Why this course?

  • The most widely-used language: According to the TIOBE index (The Importance of Being Earnest), published by TIOBE Software BV, Python is the most commonly-used programming language today.
  • Versatility and clarity: It is one of the most versatile programming languages that exists and can be used on various operating systems. IEEE Spectrum defines it as a multiparadigm, dynamic and multi-purpose programming language, designed to be quick to learn, use, and understand. What’s more, it offers a clean and uniform syntax.
  • Interpreted language: The most notable feature of Python is that it is an interpreted language, meaning that it isn’t compiled like Java or C/C++, rather it is interpreted at runtime.
  • Learning curve: Python is an easy language to read and write as it is highly similar to human language. Moreover, it is an open-source, cross-platform language and consequently free to use, meaning it can be used to develop software without limits.
  • For professionals who want to work in data analysis and are interested in adding Python programming to their job skills.

Study Plan

Study Plan

1. Python Fundamental Concepts

This unit is designed for students to learn and understand fundamental programming concepts using Python. This is a versatile and easy-to-learn language, which has become a popular choice for both beginners and experienced developers given its clear, readable syntax.

  • Introduction to Python
  • Python variables
  • Object types
  • Control structures
  • Functions
2. Intermediate Python

This unit looks at a variety of key concepts and techniques in data analysis using the Pandas library in Python. From manipulating DataFrames to performing advanced operations such as merging and aggregating datasets, the unit covers a broad spectrum of skills essential for any data professional.

  • Introduction to Pandas
  • Basic Pandas
  • Intermediate Pandas
  • Advanced Pandas
3. Advanced Python

This unit explores two fundamental tools for data processing in Python: the datetime library and NumPy. The datetime library enables dates and times to be handled precisely, allowing arithmetic operations and comparisons. NumPy, on the other hand, is a pillar of scientific computing, providing support for multidimensional arrays and high-performance mathematical functions.

  • Datetime in Python
  • The NumPy library
4. Visualization in Python

This unit looks at several issues related to creating and customizing graphs using tools such as Python, Matplotlib and Plotly. Starting with the installation of key libraries and loading data for manipulation, it goes on to explore graphs, from lines and bar charts to boxes, histograms, and scatter plots. It also looks at methods for adding titles, customizing axes, and editing the appearance of charts.

  • Plotnine
  • Matplotlib
  • Plotly
