Catalog Description
Python is a programming language with a simple syntax, and a powerful set of libraries. It is an interpreted
language, with a rich programming environment, including a robust debugger and profiler. While it is easy
for beginners to learn, it is widely used in many scientific areas for data understanding and exploration. It
covers data types, control flow, object-oriented programming, and graphical user interface-driven
applications. It helps in analyzing data with the help of different visualization techniques.
