This course provides an introduction to computer programming in Python, a popular, easy-to-learn, cross-platform language with extensive libraries. Students will learn to recognize problems appropriate for computer program solutions, to determine the requirements of those solutions, and to translate those requirements into procedural programming constructs using object-oriented programming methodology. Students will then use basic Python commands to access databases, analyze data, and develop data-driven decisions. (3 credits)
