Intro to Programming Using Python with Stella Yang

This workshop will cover the fundamental concepts of programming using Python. Using demonstrations and hands-on exercises, participants will learn how to write simple scripts, understand basic syntax, and work with core concepts like variables, loops, and data types. By the end of the session, they will have the foundation and be able to continue exploring Python on their own. The workshop is designed for undergraduate students, graduate students, and staff from non-computer science backgrounds, but anyone with no or limited experience with Python is encouraged to attend. The workshop will use Google Colab, so no software installation is required.
