Python is a popular and powerful programming language that has long been a preferred backend tool in web development and is also quickly becoming the de-facto language of Data Science.
This workshop is a hands-on introduction to Python programming for absolute beginners, with a focus on programming fundamentals and how you can use code to solve real-world problems. In this class, we will also discuss Python's role in the Data Science workflow, and dive into how to use Python for basic data analysis.
This bootcamp is designed to teach core Python coding concepts through practical examples and guided practice. 
<H2 CLASS="MsoNormal">How our sessions work</H2>
We host these live online classes out of our office in Cambridge, MA. Guests tune in online to watch the live presentations. During the presentation, we set up a question and answer platform where participants can submit questions and have them answered. You'll be sent the webinar access information the week before the start of the course.
This online-only bootcamp has three sessions, from 6:30pm - 8.00pm EST on June 14, June 21 and June 28.
