Exercises¶
These notebooks and exercises were prepared by Andrew Valentine as a class that can be followed in roughly numerical order to progress through more complicated features of python and more difficult problems.
Getting started with python and jupyter¶
Some simple introductary notebooks to help you learn both notebooks and python at the same time. We ran through some of this in our meet-and-greet with python programming
Arrays of data and loops¶
Moving on to data types that bundle multiple items together, thinking about how address individual items in those structures and how to access all of them in turn. This builds upon our quick introduction to python data types
Python idiosyncrasies¶
Doing things with python¶
Here we begin to explore the commonly used packages that are readily available in the python ecosystem. These exercises give you an introduction to the topic and you can dig deeper later.
Exercise 11 - Numpy - Go deeper into numpy/scipy with these notebooks
Exercise 16 - Maps - Go deeper into map making with these notebooks
More advanced material¶
There are more in-depth examples that you can now start to work through. These will assume you understand python and are trying to understand the programming process.
