PYTHON FOR BEGINNERS
Python is one of the languages that is witnessing incredible growth and popularity year by year. In 2017, Stackoverflow calculated that python would beat all other programming languages by 2020 as it has become the fastest-growing programming language in the world.
Python is the most popular programming language in the world today. Many industrial applications developed using Python, for example, banking, finance, manufacturing and engineering sectors. Python is increasingly in demand for Data Science — including machine learning, data analysis, and data visualization In this online workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of the Python programming language, along with programming best practices. You’ll learn to represent and store data using Python data types and variables, and use conditionals and loops to control the flow of your programs.
