Python Programming Training

Python is a powerful open-source and flexible language. It is easy to learn and use. It has powerful libraries for data analysis and manipulation. Python Programming has been used in highly quantitative domains including oil & gas, physics, finance and signal processing etc. Python Programming Training provides complete knowledge to the delegates about the fundamentals of Python, Statistics and Machine Learning. It helps the delegates to gain expertise in applied Data Science at scale using Python.

Python Programming Training provides complete knowledge to the delegates about the different types of sequence structures, related operations and their usage. The delegates will also learn about the different methods of opening, reading, and writing to files. With the help of training, the delegates will able to learn how to create generic Python scripts as well as understand how to address exceptions in code. Throughout the training, the delegates will understand about the Supervised Learning Techniques and implementation of these techniques.
