TOP REVIEWS FROM TOOLS FOR DATA SCIENCE

Some of the lab assignments had instructions that didn't line up with how the programs actually worked. This was particularly the case for modular flow where auto-numerics seemed impossible to use.

Absolutely Loved this course!! Challenging at times to keep up with all the terms and processes. The course provided great insight into Data Science. Would highly recommend it as your first course.

Great course, I would really encourage everyone to go through, however videos about Jupyter Notebook or other tools were so fast I wasn't able to remember all the information. Anyway great course.
