== Python Programming for Machine Learning ==

Python Programming for Machine Learning is an optional course in the modules "Machine Learning 1", "Cognitive Algorithms" and "Machine Learning - Theory and Applications" and is worth 3 LP (3 ECTS credits).

In the general case, it is not possible to take the Python course as a standalone course. There are possible exceptions to this (e.g. it complements another ML or related course you are taking in parallel). In that case, a special request needs to be made.

The course will be split in two tracks A and B, with the same content, but held at different times of the week/day. Students can opt for either of these.

Participation in the exercise sessions is not mandatory but highly recommended. However, homework assignments have to be submitted every week.

'''Important information''': Since the first homework has to be submitted on Oct 21, you have to '''register already by Tuesday, Oct 16 2018 for the ISIS course'''. Otherwise, you will not be able to submit the homeworks.

'''Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)'''
 * '''When does the course start?''' on Monday Oct 15th, 2018 at 10:15 [Track A] or 16:15 [Track B]
 * '''How to register for the course?''' Pre-registration is not needed. However, register for the ISIS course on Oct 16, 2018 at the latest to be able to submit the exercises.


Knowledge of elementary programming concepts will be helpful. Be aware that lack of such knowledge will increase the time demand of the class.

Homework is submitted via ISIS (see above), therefore you have to register there.
