Data Science is currently the hottest topic among data analysts and
technologists, but getting started can sometimes be daunting or
confusing to many data professionals. We aim to change that with
this full-day, hands-on course in which you will be introduced to data
science and its basic methodologies using the Python programming
language!
Together we will work through some real-world data analyses using
several of the most popular Python libraries, such as NumPy, pandas,
Matplotlib, and SciPy. Next we'll cover collecting and importing
data, and introduce basic statistics around our data. From there
we'll move on to create some simple visualizations of our data to help
us identify trends and patterns, and then finish up by putting our
newfound Python skills to the test by tackling a detailed real-world
scenario.
Intended Audience:
• DBAs and Database Developers looking to branch out into the wider
world of data science.
• Data Analysts who want an introduction to the features and methods
available in the Python data science toolset.
• Anyone who is looking for a fun, hands-on way to get started in
the data science field.
