Originally restricted to the applied sciences, nowadays it is increasingly becoming an integral part of everyday life. This makes understanding data and working with it very important and very relevant. The goal of this workshop is to present the capabilities of the programming language <em>Python<\/em> in terms of data analysis (loading, displaying, visualizing, and manipulating data) and model construction and evaluation (building, evaluating, and choosing an appropriate model). No previous knowledge of programming is required.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: Introduction to Data Analysis and Modeling Workshop organizer: M-r Filip Nikolovski, Prof. D-r Irena Stojkovska Target audience: Primary: university-level mathematics lecturers, university students Secondary: high school and elementary school mathematics teachers, high school students, enthusiasts Content.
