Data Manipulation and Visualisation in Python at NCI Online

NCIhttps://opus.nci.org.au/display/Help/NCI+Training+and+Educational+EventsThe National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) is Australia's leading high-performance data, storage and computing organisation, providing expert services to benefit all domains of science, government and industry. NCI aims to deliver to the Australian research sector the computational capability and enhanced services it needs to achieve transformational outcomes benefiting Australia's industry, environment, research sector, public policy formulation and Australian society more broadly.Intersecthttps://intersect.org.au/trainingIntersect is a pivotal part of Australian research landscape. We provide robust, innovative services and collaborative technology to support world-class research at our member organisations and in the wider research community.Intersect delivers data storage, compute and analysis platforms, custom engineering, expert consulting and training programs to thousands of researchers every year.Intersect works closely with the ARDC (Australian Research Data Commons) built from ANDS, Nectar, and RDS. Intersect is also a member of the Software Carpentry Foundation, the NCI (National Computational Infrastructure) and the AAF (Australian Access Federation).

NCI and Intersect Australia Partnership

Explore DataFrames in depth, and learn about Data Manipulation and Data Visualisation in Python using the pandas, matplotlib and seaborn lib

<h3>Brought to you by NCI in partnership with Intersect and delivered by Intersect.</h3><p></p><h3>Important:</h3><p>This course takes place over 2 days. The dates and times are as follows:</p><ul><li>Day 1: Thursday, April 7 from 1:30 pM to 4:45 PM AEST</li><li>Day 2: Friday, April 8 from 1:30 pM to 4:45 PM AEST</li></ul><p></p><p>Python has deservedly become a popular language for scientific computing. It has all the friendly features and conveniences you’d expect of a modern programming language, and also a rich set of libraries for working with data.</p><p>In this workshop, you will explore DataFrames in depth (using the pandas library), learn how to manipulate, explore and get insights from your data (Data Manipulation), as well as how to deal with missing values and how to combine multiple datasets. You will also explore different types of graphs and learn how to customise them using two of the most popular plotting libraries in Python, matplotlib and seaborn (Data Visualisation).</p><p>We teach using Jupyter notebooks, which allow program code, results, visualisations and documentation to be blended seamlessly. Perfect for sharing insights with others while producing reproducible research.</p><p>Join us for this live coding workshop where we write programs that produce results, using the researcher-focused training modules from the highly regarded Software Carpentry Foundation.</p><p></p><h3>You&#x27;ll learn:</h3><ul><li>Working with pandas DataFrames</li><li>Indexing, slicing and subsetting in pandas DataFrames</li><li>Missing data values</li><li>Combine multiple pandas DataFrames</li><li>Using the Grammar of Graphics to convert data into figures using the seaborn and matplotlib libraries</li><li>Configuring plot elements within seaborn and matplotlib</li><li>Exploring different types of plots using seaborn</li></ul><p></p><h3>Prerequisites:</h3><p>Either Learn to Program: Python or  Learn to Program: Python and Python for Research needed to attend this course. If you already have experience with programming, please check the topics covered in the Learn to Program: Python and Python for Research courses to ensure that you are familiar with the knowledge needed for this course.</p><p></p><h3>The Intersect approach to training</h3><p>At Intersect, we deliver hands-on courses that target the day-to-day software and technology problems that researchers face. </p><p>For more information about <a href="https://intersect.org.au/training/course/python101/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">this course</a> and others, see our <a href="https://intersect.org.au/training/courses" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">course catalogue</a>, or visit <a href="http://learn.intersect.org.au" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><strong>Learn.intersect.org.au</strong></a></p><p>For more information about how we allocate tickers and address no-shows, see our <a href="https://intersect.org.au/policy/training/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">training polic</a></p>
