The Newton Free Library will host a free hackathon about data science on Sunday, February 26, 1:30-4:30PM for all students in Grades 7-12. It will start with a short lecture, followed by lots of free time for coding in Python. You may bring your own computer (with Python 3 installed) or use a library computer if you register in advance. No prior experience in programming is required. The Library will provide guidance in Python syntax and debugging. Students may work independently or in teams.
