Curriculum Notes: Python

Alan Croswell's notes on the Software Carpentry curriculum

  • Use of jupyter lab vs. notebook -- doesn't really matter but since the syllabus uses Lab, we should too.
  • Someone asked about web scraping, which isn't covered in this lesson. There's is a LC lesson on web scraping with Python and the use of Xpath, which may be a good more advanced workshop to run during the semester.

  • There was one case I noticed in the Beta Python lesson that the exercises referenced datasets that were not included in the setup data, which made it non-useful.
