This one-hour online training will provide a high-level overview of Python coding concepts, as well as some of the integrative development environments (IDEs, such as Jupyter notebooks) used for Python coding. Python is a programming language used for data science, specifically: data analysis, statistical analysis, and visualization of results. The training will feature the following IDEs: Google Colaboratory: Jupyter Notebook; and Anaconda’s: Spyder, Jupyter Notebook, and JupyterLab. This overview training will demonstrate how these skills can boost productivity, rigor, and transparency in reporting research findings.
By the end of the training, attendees will be able to:
Recognize four freely available IDEs for python coding
Identify fundamental components of python code
Understand how and why notebooks support rigor and transparency in analysis
Attendees are not expected to have any prior knowledge of python coding or the IDEs to be successful in this training.
If you choose to follow along with Google Colab or Jupyter Notebooks, these IDEs should be installed and ready to go. Code will be provided during the training for this option.
