Python Data Analysis

This course will continue the introduction to Python programming that started with Python Programming Essentials and Python Data Representations. We’ll learn about reading, storing, and processing tabular data, which are common tasks. We will also teach you about CSV files and Python’s support for reading and writing them. CSV files are a generic, plain text file format that allows you to exchange tabular data between different programs. These concepts and skills will help you to further extend your Python programming knowledge and allow you to process more complex data.By the end of the course, you will be comfortable working with tabular data in Python. This will extend your Python programming expertise, enabling you to write a wider range of scripts using Python.

This course uses Python 3. While most Python programs continue to use Python 2, Python 3 is the future of the Python programming language. This course uses basic desktop Python development environments, allowing you to run Python programs directly on your computer.

Great Course !

Specially the project at the end uses some really powerful code, combining all that we had learnt throughout the course

It's fantastic learning opportunity, well taught, covered almost everything.Baseball project is cherry on the cake.

Assignments get tough for a beginner like me. But that is exactly what is required to learn the material.... I think.

This is a really really good course to get hands on how to access data from the csv files and work with it. I liked it a lot.
