Learn Python
Want to work independently?
Want to develop applications without
initial expenses?
Want to learn something that can be
applied without expensive licenses?
Want to see more relationships between taught theory
and its real utilization?
Python is an open-source
programming language and there are many code libraries that substitute many
functions which are known from Matlab.
Applications that are written in Python can be run in
Windows, Linux or even in Android in smart phones.
Become
familiar how to represent your programs in a graphic user interface.
Except that alternative, you will become familiar with
hardware options for applications of your Python programming skills in
practice. One of them is the pocket computer Raspberry Pi and DAQ card LabJack for online measurement and data processing in
Python.
Further, except a classical numerical method, you will
learn some recent progressive techniques from the field of measuring, signal
processing, and data analysis using personal computers and Python, and
optionally also fundamental techniques of adaptive modeling of systems, neural
networks, or adaptive control technique.

Python, summary
To
pass the class, students have to actively participate on lectures and labs. A semestral work and presentation of results in class will be
required. The students should be familiar with Math topics of first and second
year. There are no special prerequisites for any SW or HW.
