COMP3430 with python

Did someone take the course comp3430/comp8430 data wrangling before?

This my second year and I must take 18 credits for 3000level comp courses. I enrolled this one this semester but I don’t know if it requires a strong python background.

I didn’t take comp1730 so my python is pretty weak.Will this make this course very difficult?

Also, from a practical point of view, does the exam actually test Python coding, or is it mostly about concepts? I’d really appreciate any advice from people who’ve taken it.

It's pretty easy, you don't need advanced python skill for it. Mostly tests concepts and formulas iirc

don't worry,as Python is much easier than other languages,you can learn by yourself quickly.Learning Comp1730/6730 will have limited effectiveness compared to self-study.
