Python for biologist 

D. Corà

This course is designed as a brief practical introduction to the Python programming language, specifically for students with a biological background. It consists of four lectures covering the basics of the programming language, followed by hands-on exercises aimed at understanding specific simple examples of usage and analysis. No prior experience in programming is required; however, the course is intended for students genuinely interested in using Python in their research work. Deliverables: provide students with basic knowledge and a working methodology to further explore programming through more advanced courses and studies.
