DATA SCIENCE SERIES

In this series you will go from knowing how to programme in Python to someone who does data science and understands how to approach handling data sets and finding their hidden secrets.  You will learn

-       How to use numpy, an important data science tool

-       What you can do with numpy

-       How to do mathematical functions in numpy

-       How to create a range of different numpy arrays to store your data in

-       How to alter and manipulate numpy arrays

-       How to use control flow with numpy arrays

-       How to use pandas, an important data science tool

-       What you can do with pandas

-       How to describe and alter your data set with pandas

-       How to alter columns and combine pandas data frames

-       How to export your results using pandas

-       The basis of data cleaning

-       How to write a supervised machine learning algorithm

-       Understand when and how to use decision trees

When you have watched the videos practice your skills with the workbook.

This course contains 78 video tutorials with over 4.5 hours of videos and 12 downloadable and printable workbook.  On average it takes around 20 hours to fully complete. When you buy a course you get an email with the link and password to the course. All you need to do is go to the relevant web page and type in the password. You will then have unlimited access to the course for one month.

This course is suitable for people who have Python programming skills including understanding how to use and manipulate numerical data, strings, Booleans, lists, tuples and ranges.  You should be comfortable with the programming fundamentals of if, elif and else statements, for and while loops and functions.  Be able to plot scatter, line, histograms and pie charts in Matplotlib, and how to choose which graph to use.  No prior experience with Data Science is required.  

To get the full benefit from this course you will need to be comfortable with the following skills: 

- complete the Set Up Python course https://swamphen.co.uk/set-up-python   

- have a good foundation in Python programming 

- how to define and manipulate numerical data types, strings and Booleans

- how to set up, slice, order, add, append and alter mutable sequences lists, lists of lists, immutable sequences tuples and ranges

- how to write and use functions with Python data, loops and control flow

- how to choose the correct graph to use and produce bespoke graphs of different types, including line, scatter, histogram, pie chart

You can get these skills from Swamphen Enterprise's previous courses at www.swamphen.co.uk/python-series-information and www.swamphen.co.uk/graph-plotting-series-information.  Our courses follow a structured learning progression to help you on your journey.
