added by Lee Vaughan

Python Tools for Scientists will introduce you to Python tools you can use in your scientific research, including Anaconda, Spyder, Jupyter Notebooks, JupyterLab, and numerous Python libraries. You’ll learn to use Python to create visualizations, represent geospatial information, simulate natural events, and manipulate numerical data.

Once you’ve built an optimal programming environment with Anaconda, you’ll learn how to organize your projects and use interpreters, text editors, notebooks, and development environments to work with your code. Following the book’s fast-paced Python primer, you’ll tour a range of scientific tools and libraries like scikit-learn and seaborn that you can use to manipulate and visualize your data or analyze it with machine learning algorithms.

Regardless of your scientific field, Python Tools for Scientists will show you how to choose the best tools to meet your research and computational analysis needs.
