PCEP: Python Data Processing

Overview

In this course, you'll continue developing your Python skills by processing simple data types like integers and strings. You'll also process more complex data structures like lists, sets, and dictionaries. This is the second course in a multi-course Specialization. All of the courses in this Specialization require that you use the provided virtual machine, which includes an installation of Python. The course setup instructions provided in the first course go into more detail about the hardware and software requirements.

Syllabus

Processing Simple Data Types

In any programming language, knowing how to work with data types is essential. Not all data types are the same, and being able to recognize what you can and can't do with each will help you make the most of your Python® code.

Processing Data Structures

You've processed simple data types, but Python® also supports more complex data structures. These data structures make almost any application, no matter how large and complex, much more powerful and easy to write.
