Introduction to Python for genetics

Many students and professionals of biosciences are not familiar with programming. However, the increasing amount of biological data generated every year, along with advances in biotechnology and the increasing role of informatics in life sciences makes the programming knowledge essential for biologists, biotechnologists, and so on! In this introductory course, you will learn how to model simple genetics problems using the programming language Python. First, you will learn how to implement the commands or data structures in Python. And Finally, we will model some problems in the field of genetics using the knowledge acquired so far. Since this is an introductory course, we will not use third-party libraries, such as Biopython, matplotlib, pandas, etc., but only the built-in commands, modules, and data structures

Requirements A basic knowledge of genetics is desirable, but the course has a brief review of genetics at the beginning
