Interested in starting Data analysis and not sure which Programming language to use to develop Data Analysis Programs? Are you a beginner and would like to learn Python in order to develop the necessary skills for data analysis and note sure where to start?
Do you have data and want to analyze and provide professional figures for your presentation and communication and don't know which programming language to use or interested in using Python?
This book is intended to address all these questions. In fact, the aim of this book is providing the absolute beginners or other programmers that has no experience with Python programming the basic and fundamental tools of the Python language.
This book provides not only the basic syntax of Python but also an advanced command to evaluate the performance of your code in interactive programming environment (i.e. Jupyter) and a guide to use the fundamentals Python libraries for data analysis which are Pandas, NumPy and Matplotlib libraries. All these libraries are presented with examples with real data so you can practice at the same time when learning the functionalities of this library.
