NOTE: Please register for this course by 10th February 2025 on the UniPortal. After that, if too many students have registered, a draw will be made, and you will get notified whether you can attend the course on 11th February. LUMACSS students are prioritized as this course is mandatory for them.
CONTENT: There is a revolution going on in the social sciences: the rise of computational social science! Huge new sources of data on social behaviour are being combined with new analytical techniques to change the fundaments of how social science takes place. This class is aimed at social scientists who want to learn the basics of one of the key skills in the computational social science toolkit: the python programming language. The class is aimed at complete beginners with no previous programming experience (but with an interest to learn!). During the class, we will learn the fundamentals of the Python programming language, looking at (for example) how to control the flow of code with loops and conditional statements, how to handle input and output to files, how to write functions, and more.
