Registration is required. Click here to register.

Are you ready to learn the basics of data analysis and visualization in Python? In this 2-hour in-person workshop, we'll explore two of Python's most popular libraries, numpy and matplotlib.

Please note: Registration is required for this event.

In this session, you'll learn how to:

• Import and use Python libraries
• Read tabular data into Python
• Perform basic statistical operations on the data
• Create basic plots from the data
• Process and plot multiple data files at once

To get the most out of this workshop, we recommend attending the first Medical Library Python workshop, "Getting Started with Python: An Introduction to Programming." Or, please ensure that you understand the following Python concepts: strings, integers, variables, functions such as print(), lists, and for loops.

Technical requirements:

• Please come to class with a computer or device with the following installed:

• • Python 3
  • Two Python libraries: numpy and matplotlib
  • A Python environment, such as Jupyter Notebook, PyCharm, etc. — your instructor will use Jupyter Notebook
• Want to do all of the above at once? Install Anaconda on your machine. (Watch this video for guidance.)
• Prerequisites:
• Either "Getting Started with Python: An Introduction to Programming" or a good working understanding of Python fundamental operations and data types.
