# Intro to Python 2
## Monday, May 17th, 2021 1\:00-3\:00

[Back to Resbaz HackMD Directory](https://hackmd.io/@ResBaz21/directory)

This workshop will help attendees build on previous knowledge of Python or another programming language in order to harness the powers of Python to make your computer work for you. Attendees will learn how to write their own Python functions, save their code as scripts that can be called from future projects and build a workflow to chain multiple scripts together.
