Workshop Overview: Python Programming and Data Analysis – 2025 Edition

Unlock the power of Python in this hands-on workshop tailored for beginners and aspiring data professionals! With Python continuing to dominate the programming landscape in 2025, there's no better time to start your journey. This workshop is designed to build strong foundational skills and introduce essential data analysis techniques using real-world datasets.

We'll begin by answering Why Learn Python?, and explore its soaring demand across industries due to its simplicity, flexibility, and powerful libraries. From there, we’ll dive into Basic Python Programming, covering core concepts like variables, expressions, control flow, functions, recursion, and working with files and classes. Participants will also get introduced to NumPy, Python’s backbone for numerical computing.

Next, we’ll transition into Data Visualization, where you’ll learn how to preprocess data, identify different data types (nominal, ordinal, discrete, and continuous), and visualize data relationships such as distribution, comparison, composition, and correlation.

In the Data Analysis module, we’ll apply what you’ve learned to real datasets. You’ll:

• Perform clustering using penguin data from the Palmer Archipelago.

• Conduct linear regression with the SAS diabetes dataset.

• Apply classification techniques to the Breast Cancer Wisconsin dataset.
