Introduction to Python for sciences 2020

We will discover how to use Python to do sciences. You will learn enough to be able to understand most Python codes used by scientists. And how to code yourself your own scripts to analyze data, plot figures or solve equations.

We're going to start by the beginning. Very simple Python code to learn the basics of programming.

This course should be fun! Do not hesitate to interrupt and ask any questions!

Let's start!

You can use your computer (but in this case you will have to be quite independent). If you have only Windows on you PC, you need to use the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2).
