Section Info:
Programming & Quality in Data Analytics - Prerequisites: Any two previous programming courses or 1 year of experience with any general-purpose language(s). Prior familiarity with Python is very helpful but not required. This is an intermediate-level Python programming course using a broad range of data structures, packages, concepts, best practices, and tools needed for developing, debugging, and modifying software to solve moderately complex problems and to evaluate and improve code maintainability and reliability. These skills are relevant to all contexts of programming, but most scenarios and assignments will include numerical data analysis, Monte Carlo simulation & experimental design, or processing pipelines while using data sets from sciences, finance, business, or government. Introduces test-driven design, OOP features, performance analysis, and concurrent processing. The primary learning objectives are to improve general programming abilities and to develop deeper critical understanding of work in data analytics and common flaws therein. Graduate student questions may be sent to msim-advising@illinois.edu.
