Python and Pandas for Beginners: Quick and Easy Guide to the Core
This course will help you quickly learn the core concepts of Python and the Pandas library. Improve your programming skills by solving the practice problems at the end of each part!
This course is designed to teach you the basics of Python and the Pandas library.
When you first start programming, the sheer volume of material can be overwhelming. For beginners, there's no real need to memorize advanced grammar and detailed methods. I believe it's more effective to focus on the core concepts first, then learn the details through trial and error while working on projects.
Python is particularly easy to learn and use quickly, thanks to its abundance of open source code and relatively simple syntax. Once you master Python, you'll be one step closer to creating the programs you desire.
Learn the Pandas library, which specializes in data processing and analysis .
Programming First time users
Python programming grammar + Pandas library For those who want to quickly learn the core
Pandas, which you'll learn in this course, is a library specialized for data processing. To put it simply, Pandas is like the Python version of Excel, a widely used program. Using Pandas, you can easily and conveniently handle not only data processing but also simple visualizations required for analysis.
Aren't you frustrated with having to keep learning only the basic grammar of programming languages? Have you ever wanted to learn coding but hesitated because you didn't know how to actually use it? I hope this lecture will be a useful reference for those who are new to programming or are starting to work with data using Python.
Anyone can easily understand the key points It's structured so you can learn.

Q&A 💬
Q. Can non-majors also take the course?
Yes! This is an introductory course on Python and Pandas. After taking this course, I recommend working on a small project that utilizes these concepts. After learning the grammar of a language, the goal isn't to learn another, but to apply it. It's often disappointing to see beginners who, like language nomads, only memorize the grammar of their language. 😢😢
Search Google for "Python projects" and try out the most interesting and challenging projects. I, too, started programming with Python and learned everything from web programming to server development!
Q. Why should I learn Python?
First, Python has a relatively low barrier to entry compared to other programming languages. Learning one language makes it much easier to learn another. Second, Python has a huge and interesting open source library. This means there are countless mini-projects you can start with just a basic understanding.
For those who are learning programming for the first time or want to learn and apply it in various fields, we recommend Python, which is easy to learn and highly useful.
Q. Is there anything I need to prepare for the course?
All you need is a computer and your fingers! 😊😊 We'll provide all the materials you need for the lecture, so you can follow along comfortably. (The lecture is based on the Windows OS.)
