Learning outcomes
- Create typed NumPy arrays and explain how shape and data type affect numerical work.
- Select and update array regions while predicting whether operations share or copy memory.
- Transform array structure without losing the intended ordering or meaning of observations.
- Locate, order, and filter numerical observations with explicit and testable conditions.
- Replace fragile element loops with vectorized expressions whose broadcasting behavior is deliberate.
- Compose universal functions and aggregations into clear, efficient numerical transformations.
- Generate reproducible samples and interpret common distributions without hiding random state.
- Deliver a complete numerical analysis with validated inputs, reproducible computation, and evidence-backed conclusions.
Requirements
- Prior knowledge
- No prior experience is required; learners should be comfortable using a computer.
- Devices
- A computer with a modern web browser is recommended for practical work.
- Software
- A modern browser with JavaScript enabled; coding tools run inside the course.
- Equipment
- No additional physical equipment is required unless a course activity explicitly states otherwise.
- Connectivity
- Internet access is required to load course content, save progress, and submit work.
- A modern browser and reliable internet connection
- Time for four to six hours of practice per week
- Completion of each server-scored unit assessment in order
Curriculum
8 units
Assessments and completion
Each of the eight units includes a server-scored assessment. Learners must score at least 70% to pass a unit; up to three attempts are allowed per assessment.
