Introductory Python Programming 2
IEEE North Jersey Section Course: INTRODUCTORY PYTHON PROGRAMMING 2
February 25 through March 11, 2017. Three weekly classes (2/25, 3/4, 3/11)
IEEE North Jersey Section is offering a course entitled "Introductory Python Programming 2". Python Programming has gained enormous popularity in many different domains. These range from corporate information system applications, data science, general scripting, web and micro-services design. Many Python programmers are currently working on all types of commercial projects in the world, ranging from embedded systems, to restful web apps, to mainframe data-warehouse access. If you work in information technology, you must know at least one general purpose programming language that has many different domains of use.
Since it is similar to other modern scripting and object oriented languages, it is an easy transition for most programmers. This course is for anyone, even those with limited programming experience. The participants will be provided the necessary software and materials to get started. Students are expected to bring laptops onto which the required software must be loaded for doing class exercises and assignments. Introductory familiarity with Python syntax for logic, control flow and built in types and data structures is eequired. The course objective is to provide a basic overview of the most common language features and their use to apply in a scripting environment for daily information processing tasks. It will give participants a starting point for more advanced learning in domain specific areas.
You will receive the IEEE Certificate of Completion (1 CEU - Continuing Education Unit) when you finish the course.
