CSCI 130 Introduction to Python
Python is a language with a simple syntax; and a powerful set of libraries. It is an interpreted language; with a rich programming environment, including a robust debugger and profiler. While it is easy for beginners to learn; it is widely used in many scientific areas for data exploration. This course is an introduction to the Python programming language for students without prior programming experience. We cover data types; control flow; object-oriented programming; and graphical user interface-driven applications. The examples and problems used in this course are drawn from diverse areas such as text processing; simple graphics creation and image manipulation, HTML and web programming and genomics.
