These notebooks have been compiled as a service for several of my colleagues who know a little python for scripting, but would like to develop more robust, flexible code.
Anyone who is interested in learning some basic python, with a slant toward the data sciences.
I'm attempting to first provide a solid foundation of how python works and what it can do instead of teaching to a basic package. However, focus on some basic datascience modules/packages, such as numpy and matplotlib, will be introduced fairly early. Other, more advanced frameworks (such as UI libraries) will be discussed and included as requested.
A few resaons; namely:
- The notebooks allow the free mingling of Python code and decorated text.
- Allows for interactive code presentation, allowing the user to play with the code.
- Jupyter notebooks are directly viewable in github.
- Each person can download their own separate copy to add their own notes, etc.
