This course covers the fundamentals of Python programming and its applications in data science and machine learning. You'll quickly get up and running with Python and learn how to use it for data analysis projects. Python is one of the leading programming languages used today. It is an ideal language for beginners because it is both powerful and approachable.

In the first half of this hands-on course, you learn the fundamentals of Python code before moving into more advanced programming tasks. The second half focuses on data science using Pandas, Matplotlib, and scikit-learn. Through these tools, you learn how to input, analyze, and visualize data.

This program is ideal for high school students with a strong interest in coding. Prior coding or programming experience is not required, but you should be comfortable with basic computer skills.
