ABOUT THIS COURSE
There is a lot of dispersed, and somewhat conflicting information on the internet when it comes to data science, making it tough to know where to start. Don't worry. This course will get you familiar with the state of data science and the related fields such as machine learning and big data. You will be going through the fundamental concepts and libraries which are essential to solve any problem in this field. You will work on real-time projects from Kaggle while also honing your mathematical skills which will be used extensively in most problems you face. You will also be taken through a systematic approach to learning about data acquisition to data wrangling and everything in between. This is your all-in-one guide to becoming a confident data scientist.

These are high-quality courses. Trust me the price is worth it for the content quality. Educative came at the right time in my career. I'm understanding topics better than with any book or online video tutorial I've done. Truly made for developers. Thanks

Just finished my first full #ML course: Machine learning for Software Engineers from Educative, Inc. ... Highly recommend!

You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it.

Your courses are simply awesome, the depth they go into and the breadth of coverage is so good that I don't have to refer to 10 different websites looking for interview topics and content.
