About the Course

This is the second of seven courses in the Google Advanced Data Analytics Certificate. The Python programming language is a powerful tool for data analysis. In this course, you’ll learn the basic concepts of Python programming and how data professionals use Python on the job. You'll explore concepts such as object-oriented programming, variables, data types, functions, conditional statements, loops, and data structures. Google employees who currently work in the field will guide you through this course by providing hands-on activities that simulate relevant tasks, sharing examples from their day-to-day work, and helping you enhance your data analytics skills to prepare for your career. Learners who complete the seven courses in this program will have the skills needed to apply for data science and advanced data analytics jobs. This certificate assumes prior knowledge of foundational analytical principles, skills, and tools covered in the Google Data Analytics Certificate. By the end of this course, you will: -Define what a programming language is and why Python is used by data scientists -Create Python scripts to display data and perform operations -Control the flow of programs using conditions and functions -Utilize different types of loops when performing repeated operations -Identify data types such as integers, floats, strings, and booleans -Manipulate data structures such as , lists, tuples, dictionaries, and sets -Import and use Python libraries such as NumPy and pandas...

It was so so helpful. I didn't think I would learn this much from a simple course online, but I really did gain useful and applicable python skills

A great course, explaining what matters, nice examples. i would have loved to get some more advanced examples. and how to choose a data structure that is best suited to the data.

Practicing python during the program is for sure one of the highlights of it, however I would expect a lot more advanced practices to be thought during a course that has the 'advance' label in its title. I liked the way that combines the steps of a project , from the planning and executing , to the presentation of the findings. I didn't like that the project's lab was so much driven by ready notes because it didn't let me to struggle at all and it was I just typing things without any problem solving action to be need by my side.

This course was interesting, but I didn't find it as rigorous as the previous courses I've taken from Google. I hope the future courses in this specialization are a little bit more challenging and help me grow my technical skills.

This course is very much designed specifically by keeping data analyst/scientists in mind. Maybe those parts can be removed from here and add more Python practice sessions.

Have some previous knowledge of Python before taking this course. You'll find it much easier to follow.

At my opinion at the beginning of the course it was good but after orders of code getting more the illustration turned to be only reading the syllabus also at the project no illustration and some new things appeared ( code ) at the model answer .

It was very difficult for me to rate this course. If I were to look at the course independently, it was at the level of an introductory review of Python and Pandas. But it was good in the whole certification process.

The course was not what I expected from Google. The explanation was very brief, and there was no comprehensive explanation for each point.
