Programming with Python

GitHub release Create a Slack Account with us Slack Status

An introduction to Python for non-programmers using inflammation data.

About the Lesson

This lesson teaches novice programmers to write modular code to perform data analysis using Python. The emphasis, however, is on teaching language-agnostic principles of programming such as automation with loops and encapsulation with functions, see Best Practices for Scientific Computing and Good enough practices in scientific computing to learn more.

The example used in this lesson analyses a set of 12 files with simulated inflammation data collected from a trial for a new treatment for arthritis. Learners are shown how it is better to automate analysis using functions instead of repeating analysis steps manually.

The rendered version of the lesson: https://swcarpentry.github.io/python-novice-inflammation/

This lesson is also available in R and MATLAB.
