Python for scientific computing is a medium-advanced course in Python tools such as NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, and Pandas. It is suitable for people who know basic Python and want to know some internals and important libraries for science – basically, how a typical scientist actually uses Python.

Python is a modern, object-oriented programming language, which has become popular in several areas of software development. This course discusses how Python can be utilised in scientific computing. The workshop starts by introducing the main Python package for numerical computing, NumPy, and discusses the SciPy toolbox for various scientific computing tasks as well as visualization with the Matplotlib package. In addition, it talks about how Python is used: related scientific libraries, reproducibility, and the broader ecosystem of science in Python.
