DESCRIPTION:MyInvolvement pages are for in-person attendees only. To regist
 er for the online session\, please use the Microsoft Forms link:Participan
 ts that are not part of the McGill Community are also invited to register 
 with the Microsoft Forms link.In this 2-hour workshop\, students will lear
 n basic data processing skills using Python. Attendees will learn how to i
 mport code from other modules and packages to take advantage of the existi
 ng Python ecosystem. After seeing how to access packages\, we will explore
  popular data analysis packages. We will see how to use NumPy to perform o
 perations on large data arrays and how to use Matplotlib to generate clear
  data visualisations. Finally\, we will discuss how to approach a new\, un
 familiar package and learn how to use it.By the end of this workshop\, par
 ticipants will be able to:Import code from existing modules and packages.U
 se NumPy to easily process multidimensional data.Use Matplotlib to generat
 e different types of plots to visualise data.Approach a new package and ex
 plore its documentation and examples.Pre-requisites:Basic knowledge of Pyt
 hon is required. Attendees should be comfortable with control flow\, basic
  data types and calling functions. To fully participate in the exercises i
 n this workshop\, attendees should have a working Python installation and 
 either Jupyter Lab or another IDE that can open Jupyter notebooks\, such a
 s Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Alternatively\, examples can be run in Goo
 gle Colab online (requires a Google account). A list of packages and insta
 llation instructions will be circulated before the workshop to ensure that
  all attendees have the necessary dependencies.**IMPORTANT NOTICE: Attenda
 nce for McGill graduate students and postdoctoral fellows is subsidized by
  Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. All other attendees such as undergradu
 ate students\, interns and/or graduate students from other institutions ar
 e required to purchase a ticket to cover organizational and staffing costs
 . To complete your registration\, you must e-transfer $10 (undergraduate s
 tudent/trainee) $25 (staff) or $100 (faculty) to workshop-micm [at] mcgill
