Data Science Fundamentals: Week 4
This week was an introduction to Python and its many quantitative functions, having had the chance to explore both Python and R programming languages, I have to say that I found Python a program that focuses on code readability, complex functions and would be highly useful for developers.
Data Science Fundamentals: Week 3
This week, I was able to explore some of the different visualization tools in R, including the standard tools such as bar plots, histograms, scatterplots and the advanced tools (i.e., ggplots).
Data Science Fundamentals: Week 2
For this week, I’ve been working with uploading data sets, performing basic computation and visualizing the data through R.
