Software and data make the world go round. Learn programming, to analyse and visualise open data, with this free course, Learn to code for data analysis.


This course will teach you how to write your own computer programs, one line of code at a time. You'll learn how to access open data, clean and analyse it, and produce visualisations. You will also learn how to write up and share your analyses, privately or publicly.


You'll code in Python, a widely used programming language across all disciplines.


You will write up analyses and do coding exercises using the popular Jupyter Notebooks platform, which allows you to see immediately the result of running your code and helps you identify – and fix – any errors more easily.


You will also look at real data from the World Health Organisation, the World Bank and other organisations.
