About the Course

This course will introduce the learner to the basics of the python programming environment, including fundamental python programming techniques such as lambdas, reading and manipulating csv files, and the numpy library. The course will introduce data manipulation and cleaning techniques using the popular python pandas data science library and introduce the abstraction of the Series and DataFrame as the central data structures for data analysis, along with tutorials on how to use functions such as groupby, merge, and pivot tables effectively. By the end of this course, students will be able to take tabular data, clean it, manipulate it, and run basic inferential statistical analyses. This course should be taken before any of the other Applied Data Science with Python courses: Applied Plotting, Charting & Data Representation in Python, Applied Machine Learning in Python, Applied Text Mining in Python, Applied Social Network Analysis in Python....

This is the practical course.There is some concepts and assignments like: pandas, data-frame, merge and time. The asg 3 and asg4 are difficult but I think that it's very useful and improve my ability.

The course had helped in understanding the concepts of NumPy and pandas. The assignments were so helpful to apply these concepts which provide an in-depth understanding of the Numpy as well as pandans

Assignments are really hard

It required very descent coding. Problems given are not for beginners.

assignment is too hard, and no guide for it. It takes too much time search relavant information.

I think the material is still small. I think it still could include more things in this course.

Grate material.

Some of the videos are not correctly cut, making them a bit confusing at times

这门课程还算比较可以的。自学内容适中,主要教你如何用pandas模块。学完这门课程,基本可以达到熟练使用pandas模块。非常有帮助。个人觉得,作业还是有一定的难度,从一个中国人的角度看。

Very nice course. The only problem that I found was the lack of exercises between assignments.

Good introductory course, but I must admit that the assignments are not explained well enough.
