    \n
  • Most widespread language<\/strong>Python is, according to the TIOBE (The Importance of Being Earnest) index, the most widely used programming language today, making it a key skill in the job market.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Versatility and clarity<\/strong>It is one of the most versatile, cross-platform and easy-to-use programming languages. IEEE Spectrum defines it as a multi-paradigm, dynamic, multi-purpose language, designed to be fast to learn, use and understand, with a clean and uniform syntax.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Interpreted language<\/strong>Python is an interpreted language, which means that it does not require compilation, unlike other languages such as Java or C\/C++, which facilitates real-time development and execution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Learning curve<\/strong>Python is easy to read and write due to its high similarity to the human language. Moreover, being cross-platform and open source, it is free and accessible, allowing unrestricted software development.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

        Study plan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        1. Python basics<\/summary>\n

        This unit is designed to facilitate the learning and understanding of fundamental programming concepts using the Python language. Python is a versatile and easy-to-learn language that has become a popular choice for both beginners and experienced developers due to its clear and readable syntax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Variables <\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Types of objects<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Control structures<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Functions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
          2. Intermediate Python<\/summary>\n

          This unit covers 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 content covers a broad spectrum of essential skills for any data professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Basic Pandas<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Pandas intermediate<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Advanced Pandas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
            3. Advanced Python<\/summary>\n

            This unit explores two fundamental tools for data processing in Python: the datetime library and NumPy. The datetime library provides functionality for handling dates and times accurately, allowing arithmetic operations and comparisons between them. NumPy, on the other hand, stands as a pillar of scientific computing, providing support for multidimensional arrays and high-performance mathematical functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Datetime in Python<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • The NumPy library<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
              4. Visualisation in Python<\/summary>\n

              This unit covers various aspects related to the creation and customisation of graphics using tools such as Plotnine, Matplotlib and Plotly. It starts with the installation of key libraries and the loading of data for further manipulation. Different types of charts are explored, from line and bar charts to box, histograms and scatter plots. In addition, methods for adding titles, customising axes and modifying the appearance of graphs are highlighted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
