• Operators: Applying arithmetic, relational, and logical operators to manipulate data effectively.
• None and Casting: Understanding the significance of the None value and the process of converting one data type to another (casting).

Learning Objectives:

• Grasp the concept of data science, its lifecycle, and where Python fits into this ecosystem. Understand the functionality and versatility of Python as a programming language, especially in data manipulation and analysis.
• Master the use of Python on platforms like Jupyter Notebook, a powerful tool for code execution and visualisation, making learning interactive and engaging.
• Employ Python to execute arithmetic operations, make comparisons, and perform logical operations across various data types and functions, laying the foundation for advanced programming and application development.

In the context of Vertical Institute’s comprehensive Data Science course, learning Python is just the beginning. Students will not only master Python programming but also extend their knowledge to cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning.
