 ts that are not part of the ɬÀï·¬ Community are also invited to register 
 with the Microsoft Forms link. In this 4-hour workshop\, participants will
  be introduced to the basics of programming in Python. Students will journ
 ey from the beginnings of creating variables and performing simple mathema
 tical operations to writing code that can perform fundamental tasks and wr
 apping this code into functions. Participants will learn how to write the 
 important building blocks that make up complex programs.By the end of this
  workshop\, participants will be able to:Store data in variables and colle
 ctions.Perform basic operations on these data.Use control flow and loops t
 o write powerful code.Define functions to create repeatable units of behav
 iour. Pre-requisites:Basic computer science knowledge is strongly recommen
 ded. Attendees should be comfortable with the following terms: memory\, CP
 U\, variable\, control flow\, loop\, list\, collection. Some of these conc
 epts will be briefly defined\, but prior knowledge is an asset. No prior p
 rogramming experience is required to attend this workshop (although famili
 arity with another language may be helpful). To fully participate in the e
 xercises in this workshop\, attendees should have a working Python install
 ation and either Jupyter Lab or another IDE that can open Jupyter notebook
 s\, such as Microsoft Visual Studio Code. Alternatively\, examples can be 
 run in Google Colab online (requires a Google account). A document will be
  circulated to help participants install Python and set up the environment
 . **IMPORTANT NOTICE: Attendance for ɬÀï·¬ graduate students and postdoct
 oral fellows is subsidized by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. All other
  attendees such as undergraduate students\, interns and/or graduate studen
 ts from other institutions are required to purchase a ticket to cover orga
 nizational and staffing costs. To complete your registration\, you must e-
 transfer $10 (undergraduate student/trainee) $25 (staff) or $100 (faculty)
  to workshop-micm [at] mcgill.ca within 24 hours of RSVP'ing to this event
 . If we do not receive your e-transfer\, you will have given up your spot.
