Introduction to Python (16/10/2024 - 17/10/2024)
The Toulouse Genotoul bioinformatics platform, organizes a 2 days long training course for non computer scientist and biologists aiming at learning the foundation of Python programming. In this training you will learn the basics of programming (variables, functions, control structures such as “if” condition, “for” loop”), writing simple programs which read files, and write results to others. The training course does not require any knowledge in programming, but basic Linux/bash commands are required (cd, ls).
