EVENT DETAILS |
Get Started with Python, in this introductory class. Python, is an extremely readable and versatile programming language that can be leveraged for both scripting and object-oriented programming. Ideal for data analysis, web development with Django, or testing projects that may ultimately be written in another language, Python offers a lot of potential use cases for both emerging and established developers.
This workshop will get you set up with a Python programming environment and walk you through a project that showcases Python's strengths.
