Fundamentals of Python
for Data Professionals
This course is designed to take you from the absolute basics of what Python is and how it works, to advanced data topics like working with Pandas DataFrames by the end of the course. That’s a lot to cover in a "Fundamentals" course but all these topics are designed with the end goal of introducing the concepts and laying the foundation for you to continue to explore these topics on your own.
