Description
This is not your typical Data Science course.
We aim to show you the very basics of Data Science with practical examples. We require you to be familiar computer programming in general but not an expert. This course includes hands on lectures demonstrating fundamental concepts of data science, and useful python libraries for data science. For each hands on lecture we provide you with the code, documentation, and excercises.
We present the information in an understandable format, so if you have no experience with Data Science but are interested in learning more about it in a short time period you are in the right place.
Why should you take this course?
- You are a entrepreneur or business owner and you want to learn about how Data Science and/or Analytics can make your business thrive.
- You are a student and you feel like you really do not understand the basics of Data Science.
- You dread taking a course about Python and Data Science because it sounds too complicated and just want a simple explanations
- You want to see how to implement projects in data Science
