Campus: St. George (Downtown) Campus

This is a hands-on workshop in Python that covers reading, describing, and manipulating data, as well as conducting basic summary analyses, using the pandas package and Jupyter Notebooks. Workshop attendees do not need any experience with programming or Python/pandas, but must be familiar with tabular data and have a basic understanding of different types of data (quantitative/qualitative variables).

We will be using installed software on Windows computers in the MDL Lab and a sample data set that includes categorical, binary, string, and numerical data.
