Credit points: 15
Subject outline
This subject introduces the Python programming language and its advanced features in Data Sciences and Artificial Intelligence. Students will establish an understanding of fundamental and advanced topics in Python language. They will gain experience on program design and implementation of algorithms to solve real-world problems. Topics covered include control structures, built-in and complex data types, basic and advanced data structures, modular program structure, iteration and recursion, file input and output, iterative and generative, object-oriented programming, exception handling, Python for data science, Python for machine learning and Python packages. One or more applications associated with each topic will be discussed. Students will learn and implement advanced Python concepts and packages.
