DEC-foundations-of-python

This repository contains all the material for the DEC Python training. This training is developed by DIME Analytics and DECID.

Course content

This training is structured into three parts. Part 0 is a single-session introduction for people with no coding background. Part 1 is a course that covers the foundations of Python used in almost any type of Python data science project. Part 2 is a collection of stand-alone sessions that assumes knowledge in the foundations of Python and each session dives deeper into the advanced topic.
