Python for Data Analysis (py4data)

This is a peer-run working group in scientific computing using the programming language Python. We'll plan to cover topics in efficient numerical and statistical computing, as well as data visualization. A standard reference is Wes McKinney's Python for Data Analysis. A hard copy is available in D-Lab, and the book is freely available via the Berkeley campus Safari Bookshelf (the link only works on campus or via a library proxy). Registration is welcomed, but it's not required. Feel free to come if you're not certain that this group is for you. Bob Bell is coordinating.

We keep track of our meetings at python.berkeley.edu/py4science/py4data.html.
