Quick Python overview#
At the same time as the lessons, we recommend this quick overview of basic Python features that also covers general programming themes. The overview also presents, briefly, a few more advanced capabilities that are widely used with scientific and engineering data.
Go to Quickstart: Zero to Python — Pythia Foundations. There, click on the “Launch kernel” icon below the page title, to the right, to run the steps live, online! It will launch a
Jupyter
notebook on JupyterLab
, online. This open-source overview will serve also as an initial exposure to JupyterLab
and Jupyter
notebooks. It is provided by Project Pythia.
https://learnpython.org can nicely complement the Project Pythia Quickstart. It is a compact introduction featuring online interactive coding, organized by Python feature.
