This workshop introduces fundamental concepts of computer programming to a non-technical audience. It is intended to assist faculty and students in establishing a sound understanding of programming constructs that are useful for working with more advanced tasks, for example, in Natural Language Processing (NLP), Computational Linguistics, and other language data processing tasks. Concepts such as the use of variables, functions, loops, basic input and output will be addressed. Additionally, recommended best practices for working with Python script files and tools will be demonstrated. Participation does not require prior experience or exposure to computer programming.
