COURSE SYLLABUS FOR STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USING PYTHON

Course Description: Like R, Python is also used worldwide. It is used in almost every industry,
ranging from finance, banking to medicine and manufacturing. Many international and national
companies adopt R and Python to cater to their data/statistical analysis requirement. Hence, we
must learn how to use and understand Python (as well) basics since it has become ubiquitous in
research and management. In this workshop, participants will learn how to manage and analyze
their data using Python.

Python is a programming language that lets you work more quickly and integrate your systems
more effectively. Further, Python can be easy to pick up whether you're a first time programmer
or you're experienced with other languages.

Further, this workshop is designed for people who have very little experience with statistics. e
will focus on the basic analyses, procedures and best practices that any researcher should
consider when faced with a new dataset. All this will be explored in a hands-on fashion using the
free statistical software package Python.

The objectives of the training-workshop are the following:


*Understand how each statistical analysis works, such as the assumption and data requirements.
*Learn how to run the statistical analysis using Python.
*Learn how to manipulate and manage data using Python.
*Identify the right statistical tool for a specific business or research problem.
