Course Overview
The course introduces students to programming in Python, programming environments, and cloud computing tools for solving engineering, design, and research problems. Students learn version control (git), environment setup and management, and use of tools such as Jupyter Notebook, VS Code, PyCharm, and Google Colab. Core programming concepts include data types, control structures, object-oriented programming, and key Python libraries (NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, SciPy, SymPy, Scikit-learn). The course emphasizes exploratory data analysis, numerical methods, symbolic computation, and introductory machine learning, with practical tasks implemented in Python and cloud-based environments.
