Learn the foundations of programming using Python in this beginner-friendly workshop. Gain hands-on experience and learn tips to use best practices while coding.

The activities for this session will be done in Google Colab and we recommend signing into or creating Google accounts in advance. Alternatively, you can run the files locally on a Jupyter notebook. You would have to pre-install Jupyter for this and we recommend doing it as part of the Anaconda distribution – go to https://www.anaconda.com/download and download the appropriate version for your operating system. Note: you only need to do this if you cannot use a Google account.
