Data Analysis with Python and Django

About this course

Object-oriented programming is possible with Python, a computer language which is gaining

popularity and carving a niche for itself in the high performance computing space.
In 2014, Python was found to be the most popular language for teaching computer science
courses to beginners at leading US colleges. Almost eight out of ten Computer Science
departments and 27 of the top 39 were found to be teaching Python at the introductory level.
Owing to the fact that it is one of the easiest programming languages to learn, Python has
been gaining popularity and has the potential to become the programming language of choice
for both individuals and enterprises going forward. Today, a large number of organizations
are migrating and transitioning to Python. Google, for instance, has scores of engineers who
are using Python and the company is constantly looking for people with skills in the language.
Considering its rapid proliferation there is a great need for training that equips students with
Python skills, especially in India. Python training courses will acquaint the country’s students
with this simple language. Such Python training courses will also help India’s young people to
improve their employability quotient and job worthiness in the market.
Recognizing the growth of Python, ARDENT has introduced the Data Analysis using Python
course which has been structured in a way that even a student with no programming
knowledge can easily pick up the language.
Therefore learn Python programming at ARDENT and equip yourselves with skills that make
you a preferred resource for hirers.
