Python for Mechanical Engineers

Python for Mechanical Engineers

Learn Python Programming, NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib with Mechanical Engineering–Focused Examples.

This course teaches Python programming from scratch with a direct focus on mechanical engineering applications. You start by learning the basics like Python setup, writing your first program, variables, operators, input/output, and working in the interactive shell.

You will use NumPy for numerical computations, array operations, trigonometric functions, matrices, and other tasks used in mechanical design and analysis. Pandas is introduced for data handling like Series, DataFrames, indexing, slicing, Excel and CSV processing, pivot tables, and mechanical engineering-related analysis examples.

Throughout the course, ChatGPT is used as a learning assistant for debugging, code explanation, plotting help, and data-analysis support.
