About This Workshop

Python is the language of choice for data scientists. This is in large part because of the data analysis libraries available in Python, including Pandas, Scipy, and Numpy. In this workshop, you'll learn advanced Python techniques through data analysis problems. For students who have achieved a basic proficiency in Python, this workshop will be especially useful, as it prepares the Python beginner for serious data science.



Students who take this workshop and then subsequently enroll in GA's Data Science (DAT) course will receive a tuition credit towards DAT equal to what they paid for this workshop.




Prereqs & Preparation

Students should have completed the Intro to Python workshop, or have some basic background/experience in using Python. Completion of Learn Python the Hard Way before the workshop is recommended.



Preparation:
Please bring a laptop and install pip and Pandas.




Takeaways

  • Learn how to translate data sets from Excel into data that can be crunched using Python.

  • Be able to transform large, uniform data into easily analyzable, normalized, and clean data.
