Introduction to Python Programming: Home

Learning basic Python programming is not difficult. This 3-hour hands-on workshop (conducted by Eric Chow, April 2020) introduces basic concepts in computer programming and the Python programming language. No prior programming knowledge is necessary. Before you begin, you will need:

• A PC or laptop running either Windows or MacOS operating system
• Download and install Anaconda, which is a free software for writing and running Python programming code, from https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual (available for both Windows and MacOS). After installation, run Anaconda and choose Spyder.
   

Don't have time to view the 3-hour tutorial? Here is a series of short video tutorials (Cantonese - 廣東話) on basic programming concepts in Python. Putonghua (普通話) version of the videos are also available here.
