The 2nd workshop is Intro to Python with Telegram Bots. Python is a general purpose programming language with wide applications such as game development, data processing and machine learning. It is easy to pick up, and many of its concepts are transferable to other programming languages as well. No experience is required for this workshop. Participants will learn the basics of programming in Python, followed by a hands-on development of their own Telegram bot.

The QR Centre is organising two workshops for those in the USP community interested in programming. These workshops are run by USP students who are computing enthusiasts. The 1st workshop is Excel Visual Basic Applications (VBA). It aims to share some of the fascinating capabilities of Excel that can be unlocked through VBA, such as automation of tasks, so you do not have to sieve through tons of data or constantly type extremely long formulae. Participants will learn the basics of VBA programming, culminating in the development of a simple programme to calculate income tax.
