This lesson is an introduction to programming in Python 3 for people with little or no previous programming experience. It uses plotting as its motivating example and is designed to be used in both [Data Carpentry][dc-lessons] and [Software Carpentry][swc-lessons] workshops. This lesson references [JupyterLab][jupyterlab] but can be taught using alternative Python 3 interpreters as well (e.g., repl.it, Anaconda).

Prerequisites

  1. Learners need to understand what files and directories are, what a working directory is, and how to start a Python interpreter.

  2. Learners must install Python 3 before the class starts.

  3. Learners must get the gapminder data before class starts: please download and unzip the file python-novice-gapminder-data.zip.

    Please see [the setup instructions][lesson-setup] for more details. {: .prereq}
