In this 4-hour workshop, students will learn basic data processing skills using Python. Attendees will learn how to import code from other modules and packages to take advantage of the existing Python ecosystem. After seeing how to access packages, we will explore popular data analysis packages. We will see how to use NumPy to perform operations on large data arrays and how to use Matplotlib to generate clear data visualisations. Finally, we will discuss how to approach a new, unfamiliar package and learn how to use it.

By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Import code from existing modules and packages.
  • Use NumPy to easily process multidimensional data.
  • Use Matplotlib to generate different types of plots to visualise data.
  • Approach a new package and explore its documentation and examples.

Pre-requisites:
Basic knowledge of Python is required. Attendees should be comfortable with control flow, basic data types and calling functions. To fully participate in the exercises in this workshop, attendees should have a working Python installation and either Jupyter Lab or another IDE that can open Jupyter notebooks, such as Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Alternatively, examples can be run in Google Colab online (requires a Google account). A list of packages and installation instructions will be circulated before the workshop to ensure that all attendees have the necessary dependencies.

**IMPORTANT NOTICE: Attendance for 好色TVl graduate students and postdoctoral fellows is subsidized by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. All other attendees such as undergraduate students, interns and/or graduate students from other institutions are required to purchase a ticket to cover organizational and staffing costs. To complete your registration, you must e-transfer $10 (undergraduate student/trainee) $25 (staff) or $100 (faculty) to workshop-micm [at] mcgill.ca within 24 hours of RSVP'ing to this event. If we do not receive your e-transfer, you will have given up your spot.
