Let me market my bio code once again 😂 Basically, what you'll need is a good (and preferably *really* good) knowledge of numpy and pandas modules -- they are golden for data processing. Later on, when doing clustering or predictions with machine learning algorithms, sklearn will be your friend. Finally, when you want to present your findings, matplotlib, seaborn and bokeh modules will be helpful. *BUT* you will need to learn Python basics first. Check out my code below for valuable free online courses, that should get you going: https://code.sololearn.com/W2nvcMqTRi4q/?ref=app

If possible try to use programs like R or SPSS.
